What happens after the IPO?
During the bidding process (also called the date of issue) investors can bid for shares at a particular
price within the specified price band. This whole system around the date of issue where one
bids for shares is referred to as the Primary Market. The moment the stock gets listed and debuts
on the stock exchange, the stock starts to trade publicly. This is called the secondary markets.
Once the stock transitions from primary markets to secondary markets, the stock gets traded
daily on the stock exchange. People start buying and selling the stocks regularly.
Why do people trade? Why does the stock price fluctuate? Well, we will answer all these questions
and more in the subsequent chapters.
