Big news for IPO watchers: You can now bid to buy shares in a company before it goes public — and get in at the initial offering price.

Access to IPOs has historically been reserved for the ultra-rich, but now it’s for all Canadians who trade at Wealthsimple. One word of caution: while IPOs are exciting, they also can be risky. Going public doesn’t guarantee a company will be successful, so make sure you do your research before investing.

Note: IPO access is currently only available via web, but we'll be rolling out mobile access soon. Learn more about IPO access here.

help my boy out 😭

[jay @jaybinpark]

Ok this might be a reach but I need help…

My name is Jay, I’m interning at OpenAI this summer in SF, I start tomorrow and I got scammed on the housing I found. I lost ~4k on my deposit + first month and am urgently looking for a place near Mission Bay until mid August.

If you need a housemate or know anyone that does, please let me know or share to give me a hand 😭😭
