How do I know when a company will begin trading?


IPO
Lyndon asks:

How can I know when a company will begin trading and how much the price per share will be?
For example, VMWare began trading on Tuesday at $29 per share, but that was made public about two days before the IPO. I read an article dated 8/13 that mentioned this, and they opened on 8/14.
How can I find that type of information for other companies?

Thanks.

    Initial public offerings are hard to get in on because the underwriter typically will set an intial price for the shares and make them available to large institutional investors before they start officially trading.

    try IPO.com for more info.
