Global IPO Market Slows In Second Quarter

7/2/2012

The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that the global IPO market saw its fourth consecutive quarter of fewer initial public offerings. According to the article "Global IPO Market Keeps Shrinking," there were 201 total IPOs globally in the second quarter of 2012, which is less than half of the 428 IPOs in the second quarter of last year. The downward trend is attributed to:

The credit crisis in Europe;
Concerns over slowing growth in China; and
Signs that the US economy may be losing steam.
