First Lyft Then Uber, Risky IPOs Just Are the Order of the Day Now
One big difference between this decade and the 1990s dot-com boom is that the swells are making the big profits and the small investors are just getting trickled on. Risky IPOs seem to be increasing.Source: Shutterstock This was never truer than in the recent Uber (NASDAQ:UBER) IPO. Beyonce Knowles, who took a $6 million fee for an Uber corporate event in stock three years ago, had $300 million, despite the IPO's failure to achieve lift-off.Meanwhile, unless they took me seriously and shorted the thing, small Uber investors remain under water. The shares were due to trade May 16 at about $41.40, still below the $43 they were offered at. The stock chart of rival Lyft (NASDAQ:LYFT) remains a ski jump, the shares trading almost $25 below its first trade.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips * 6 Chinese Stocks That Could Pop On a Trade Deal The question now is whether this "Uber Effect," as I'm calling it, will cause other unicorn IPOs to be "down rounds." Risky IPOs Are Part of the DealA lot depends on whether investors can see the unicorns making a profit.WeWork, which filed its S-1 under seal in December, calls its $264 million loss during the first quarter, on $728 million in revenue, "investments." If you buy that I have a bridge over the East River to sell you. WeWork had "investments" (losses) of $1.9 billion last year. At its present rate it will lose another billion this year.Not all this year's risky IPOs have been failures. Zoom Video Communications (NASDAQ:ZM) literally zoomed out of the box after its IPO, up 28% from its first trade. It opened May 16 with a market cap of $20.6 billion.Zoom is a web conference service, something that's been around for decades. What made Zoom a caviar dream and Uber a pile of fish eggs? Profit! Its S-1 showed that Zoom made $7.584 million, 3 cents per share, for the fiscal year ending in January, on revenue of $330 million, double the figure of the previous year.Not all successful IPOs make such plain good sense.Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND) has jumped 30% from its IPO on May 3, despite reporting a net loss of $4.75 per share for 2018. People may be confusing it with Impossible Meat, still privately held, whose non-meat patty got rave reviews from Burger King, a unit of Restaurant Brands International (NYSE:QSR), which itself is up 27% so far this year.Uber and Lyft have always been contradictions, taxi companies whose profit promise was based on getting rid of the drivers. The idea is that the data from the cab rides would let them dominate the rental of autonomous vehicles when they finally arrive. The Bottom Line on Risky IPOsThe IPO calendar is crowded with unicorns whose investors want to cash out. These include Luckin Coffee (NASDAQ:LK), the Chinese coffee chain and three biotechs -- Peloton Therapeutics (NASDAQ:PLTX) Ideaya Biosciences (NASDAQ:IDYA), and Bicycle Therapeutics (NASDAQ:BCYC).Coming up behind them are data-mining company Palantir, backed by German-born Trump fan Peter Thiel, Pinterest, the web site as clipboard metaphor, workplace messaging company Slack, and Robinhood, a mobile-first brokerage that failed to become a bank last year.In all these cases, my advice is the same. Read the S-1 carefully. Ask if the company is making money and, if not, when it will. Pretend you're a skeptical banker, not a hungry speculator.Because in all these cases, that's what you are. The speculators are the ones looking to sell their stock. The fast profit they're looking for is your money.Dana Blankenhorn is a financial and technology journalist.

Why I Can’t Trust Ford Stock at $10 Or Any Price
If you like Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) stock or the shares of other American-automotive icons like General Motors (NYSE:GM) or Fiat Chrysler (NYSE:FCAU), you should avoid buying them anyway. In fact, I urge you to do so. I'm going to unleash hell on Ford stock, and American cars in general. If you get emotional, that's your responsibility.Source: Barbara Eckstein via FlickrLet's talk about why F stock has garnered significant interest lately. Since the start of this year, Ford stock has gained 32%, which is remarkable. * 6 Chinese Stocks That Could Pop On a Trade Deal But auto sales have flatlined for the last four years. Additionally, ride-share services like Uber (NYSE:UBER) and Lyft (NASDAQ:LYFT) have transformed personal transportation.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsIt also doesn't help that millennials just don't care for buying cars as previous generations did when they were young. Millennials are growing up at a time when multiple, private transportation options exist. However, it's also true that young Americans are comparatively financially strapped.If they're going to buy a car, they need a reliable one. That hurts Ford because it's not the most reliable automaker. That leads me to the first of my many unpleasant points: American Cars Stink, and So Will Ford StockI just have to say it: American cars are terrible. Over the past several years, Detroit has promised it would compete effectively against the Japanese and Germans. I still remember Chrysler's "Imported from Detroit" tagline. It was a clever, catchy piece of marketing genius.Unfortunately, it was also pure nonsense. Part of the appeal of owning an American car is that, well, it's American. Back in my high school days, our principal said that it's important to buy American cars to support our economy. But it's equally critical for domestic manufacturers to compete overseas.I'm sure my principal's sentiment was repeated across the nation. The fact that people have to resort to patriotism to tout American automakers , though, indicates that American cars can't compete on quality, reliability or attributes. Americans Reject Their Own CarsF stock and American cars in general are emblematic of this great nation's many problems. They appeal to folks on a superficial basis, but are very weak when it comes to fundamentals.Look at the politicians who supposedly "serve" their constituents. How many of them personally drive American cars when the cameras aren't looking? Probably very few.Exhibit A is President Donald J. Trump. As a tall, rich, (arguably) good-looking white man with a sharp tongue, he obviously appeals to the patriotic crowd. Today, he "drives" an American car because he has to.But when he was just "The Donald," he didn't seem to care too much for domestic rides. Remember that episode of The Apprentice when he showed up in an exotic Mercedes-Benz sports car? How quickly we forget that, at one point, Trump's most-prized automotive possessions were a Rolls-Royce and a Lamborghini Diablo!Why, then, should I buy an American car when my own President doesn't even exclusively buy American cars? Hard Numbers Condemn F StockIf you got through all that without cursing, congratulations! You probably dismissed my arguments against Ford stock as subjective reasoning. But now, we're going to get into the numbers.Honestly, they just don't look good for F stock. The last time its quarterly revenue hit a peak was in June 2007. At that time, sales slightly exceeded $44.2 billion. Since then, the automaker has failed to equal that haul, despite our supposedly robust economic recovery.Compare the malaise of Ford Motor Company stock to its fierce rival, Toyota (NYSE:TM). From an automotive perspective, I'm not a big fan of TM, either. I find their cars intractably boring. But as a business and an investment, it's doing pretty well, despite the shortcomings of its products.Toyota's quarterly revenue peaked in March 2012, with a haul of just under $72 billion.Its top line has been declining ever since. The difference, though, is that TM is climbing back. Toyotas have broad appeal in Japan, the U.S., and Latin America. With its Lexus luxury brand, it's also capturing some snobby Europeans.Ford is doing what it does best: give up. With that kind of loser's mentality, I just can't trust Ford stock for the long haul. Even a Tailwind for Ford Motor Company Stock Is Dying!Don't think that I'm completely biased against Ford stock. The one area where it excels is big, heavy trucks. In that area, Detroit is currently untouchable.Sadly, though, this market is fading. Sales of heavyweight trucks last peaked in 2006, shortly before the housing and banking crises.I'm not sure if the segment will ever regain its prior peak. The entire automotive landscape is changing. What hurts Ford stock, though, is that its Japanese and German rivals have adapted to the changes. Detroit hasn't, which is why I don't trust the rally of Ford stock at any price.As of this writing, Josh Enomoto did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.
