Government shutdown has ground the U.S. IPO market to a halt

The SEC is not processing filings that issuers need to move registration statements forward for deal launch, say experts

The U.S. government shutdown, now in its 20th day, is disrupting the initial public offering process and may cause delays in some of the bigger deals expected in 2019, including those of ride-sharing services Uber and Lyft.

While January and February are typically slow months for deals as companies need to finalize calendar-year audits, the shutdown “is beginning to gum up the IPO process,” said Kathleen Smith, Principal at Renaissance Capital, a manager of IPO exchange-traded funds.

IPO's wieder möglich trotz Shutdown:

US-Präsident Trump hat weitere 40'000 Staatsangestellte zur Arbeit befohlen... wohlverstanden ohne Lohn! Trump dürfte aber heute eine Order unterschreiben die den Staatsangestellte eine Lohnnachzahlung garantiert. Damit wird er eine Art Pseudo-Geld schaffen, Garantiescheine als eine Parallel-Währung zum Dollar sozusagen die vollständig unter Trumps Kontrolle liegt. Das merken die Genies von Analysten gar nicht, und die ganze Weltpresse schreibt wie dumm Trump doch seie...

Ausser IPO werden auch wieder Lizenzen für Craft Bier sowie für die Förderung von Bodenschätzen vergeben. Und die Steuer Rückzahlungen werden bearbeitet und ausgeführt.

Kann mir gut vorstellen dass die aktuelle Situation die Korruption fördert, ist ja schon fast eine Einladung dafür. In Mexiko müssen bzw. mussten die Polizisten ja auch Miete für ihre Uniform zahlen anstatt Lohn zu bekommen...

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-ord...51274.html

Profitieren von der Situation die ja gemäss Trump "Monate oder Jahre andauern wird" dürften vor allem Kredithaie und Banken.
