Initial C

A complete idiot who's convinced he has street cred. Dumb enough to stand up to the twin sons of Sparda.

Cloud Strife is a total Initial C.

Initial D

a poorly-drawn anime about racing cars and a video game which is a challenge to spend more money buying parts for your cars than the other people who play the game.

I played Initial D once. Then the machine asked for another dollar despite the fact that I won, so I never played again. Ugh.

Initial Public Offering

(FINANCE) when a corporation "goes public"; the first sale of stock by a corporation. All sales of stock or bonds on the stock market require the services of an underwriter, or investment bank. Outside of the USA and China, it is common for regular banks to offer underwriting for corporations.

Incorporation is a legal status that allows (but by no means requires) a firm to issue stock. Moreover, once a corporation lists stock, it does not necessarily do so on a major exchange. Some corporations areclosely held, which means they have a small number of shareholders who are mostly affiliated with management; other corporations are "private," which means they have no stock issues at all, and control/shares of profits are determined contractually.

Some corporations have issues of stock, and that stock is traded, but it is not listed. Instead, it is traded on the "pink pages." Such companies are usually in a bad way, but not necessarily.

An IPO is the first issue of stock by a corporation THAT DOESN'T ALREADY have a listed stock. If a company is "taken private" (i.e., bought out by a PE fund and de-listed) then it can have another IPO (or "sponsored IPO"). Most likely, however, if a listed company will need to raise money on the stock market, it will have a "follow-on offering."

A fantasy of many entrepreneurs is "going public" with a big initial public offering, and retiring to a beachfront mansion.
