i found out an hour ago that i am getting some IPO shares...my dad apparantly has some pull with our planner at Merrill
personally i would wait to see how it trades for a week or two and try and get some on weakness in the mkt in general. V will be a monster in the long run
visa is bigger

im not trying to buy on margin. my girlfriend has cash in her account, and it still wont let me me. but if i sign into my account, there's no problem. and she has much more money in her account that i do right now.

just got off the phone with them, and it turns out that my girlfriend just funded the account. and you have to have money in the account for three days to buy IPOs or other risky securities. i think that's bs, but oh well i guess.

thats what im hoping. tried to explain to my girlfriend that she still may be able to get in for around the same price that she was willing to before. but she's still pissed at herself for not setting up the account earlier. do you think visa will move in direct correlation with the overall market over the next few days, or will people still be gobbling it up even as stocks fall?

I have a roth IRA account which is in a mutual fund (NMTAX), it has been pretty good the last few years. I am a 22 yr old student and have about 18K in it. Would you think its worth it to move maybe half or more into Visa for a few years till I feel it hit a high? I feel the potential returns will be better than the fund and the risk will be worth it since I am still young and its not all that much of an investment.
Please any input would be great. Thanks for the time
