Title: Planet Fitness - IPO
Post by: 6 Reps on August 08, 2015, 07:17:32 PM
Last Thursday, Planet Fitness went public.  Their stock was offered at $16.  It closed Friday at $18.25.  Did anyone buy any shares?  (I didn't.)  Would anyone buy any shares?  I think all the other major gym chains, Gold's, LA Fitness, Bally's, are privately held.

Interesting.

I've never bought shares, played stock market, no clue how it works. But that is a bit like gambling to me and I don't think I wanna start.

A serious investment?

A few years ago, there was a thread that went something like, "If you could only take one drug."

One Getbigger mentioned Watson Test. So, I looked it up and found that Watson had merged with Activis. So, I looked up that company, liked what I saw, and bought some. Since then, I've added to the position several times and still hold the stock, today. The company has recently merged with Allergan and currently goes by that name. In addition to Test, their big seller is Botox.

The moral: Getbig = Win.
