A new company can offer stocks in an initial public offering (IPO) before the company has proven itself capable of generating long-term profits for its stockholders. If the company seems likely to generate profits, the stock price in the IPO will rise; if the company seems less likely to generate profits, the stock price in the IPO will fall.
