IPO Application

[mmorrow]

Does anyone know of a method or service that would alert one about an IPO application? Preferrably a free service/method since I'm only interested in one company.

Many of the brokerage houses have underwriting arms. Some of the mutual fund companies do as well. Problem is, I'm pretty sure you need to bring a big bag of money to play. When a company prepares to go public, they usually use a syndicate of investment banks. They advertise the upcoming IPO in financial papers like the WSJ. But the easiest way to get the info is to call the company directly. If they are planning to go public, they should be happy to talk to you. Otherwise, I suppose you could set a Google alert with the company name.
