Investor explains: IPO lockup is a year-plus staggered drip, not a 180-day cliff

Sara pushes back on "dump on retail" fears around a hot IPO: the lockup is a staggered release over a year-plus rather than the usual 180-day cliff. Outcomes-hungry insiders and employees won't all sell at once — some can begin selling day one, which should smooth supply and float. She also congratulates Yasmin Razavi on one of the greatest investments ever.
