An IPO window to Jason's question is a period of time in which you can take a company public. Usually when the market is more risk on the IPO window is open. If the value of software stocks takes a huge dive, now the IPO window closes. And so we have noticed through the JustWorks IPO and the we transfer IPO both being delayed and put off that the moment for taking companies public was actually last year and wrapped up around Christmas time.
Alex Wilhelm from TechCrunch joins Molly and Jason for a full episode. First, they breakdown Tesla's Q4 2021 earnings including its consistently increasing Model 3 production, profitability and charger network growth (3:08). Next up, they discuss why Alex thinks the IPO window is closed for most startups. We wrap with a review of some of 2022's most anticipated IPOs including Discord, Reddit, Stripe, Impossible Foods, Chime and Instacart (24:45).
