I.P.O Information?

Im looking to buy into an I.P.O from China bank that goes in public june 1 2006 but my investment co. Fidelity will not particpate; when it goes public.how can I apply and buy the I.P.o be for it goes public.and how do I keep track of it to buy sell and trade.and how longe do I to stay in ?

first, assuming that you are from the us, and this is coming in china...it might be the case that ONLY chinese nationals can buy it. that is worth checking into.
second, if you CAN buy it and not be Chinese, then you need to find who is bringing the deal public...and open an account with them to try to get shares.
third, if you DON'T want to open another account...just buy it on the day it comes public. Fidelity or ANY large brokerage can certainly handle the purchase of overseas securities for you. It may take a month for the pricing to be correct on your statement, but that is about the only snag you'll run into. Also, to check the price...often companies now have live or slight delay prices of their own stocks on their company website. The chinese firm may do the same.

Even if you find a participating broker, you may not "qualify" under their requirements.

IPOs (in my opinion) are best left to experts. You're much more likely to lose money than make it.
