Which one of these is a finding of Ritter's study of initial public offerings (IPOs)?
IPO firms tend to lose 10 percent or more of their market value in the 2 years following their IPO.
IPOs are generally incorrectly priced at issuance because over the next 5 years the IPO firm's abnormal returns exceeded 6 percent on average.
The annual returns for IPO firms during the 5-year period following an IPO are about 2 percent lower than their control group.
Firms with either IPOs or SEPs tend to outperform their control groups for the 5-year period following the issue of the new securities.
Comparable IPO and non-IPO firms had similar returns for the 5-year period following an IPO.
