Blackstone ebidta Investment Company subscribed for its shares on the New York Stock Exchange. Their price on the first day fired by fifteen percent. With these shares, opening the way for investments in private equity companies and smaller investors.
Blackstone's stock market was one of the major corporate ebidta news of the end of the week. It happened on Friday in New York, where the private equity firm, full name, The Blackstone Group, ebidta held an initial public offering (IPO). At the very IPO would not be so special. A special feature of this primary issue, ebidta however, is the fact that it is the first company in the field of private equity, which has decided to increase ebidta the financial ebidta strength through the subscription of its shares on the capital market.
On the American Stock Exchange NYSE Blackstone's shares are traded under the symbol BX and the first trading day soared fifteen percent of the subscription ebidta price of $ 31 apiece. This development was enormous investor interest in buying them. Demand was seven times higher than Blackstone shares offered. This high investor interest in joining the private equity inspired ideas for IPO next big players in this industry. The idea of the shares on the stock exchange are now engaged firms Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts (KKR), Texas Pacific Group (TPG) and Carlyle.

The fact that the shares of such companies traded on organized markets is very nice for small investors who have the opportunity to participate in the returns of private equity ebidta firms is a relatively small amount invested. This eliminates the initial investment restrictions as private equity firms whose shares are publicly traded, tend to accept investors with a minimum investment of $ 25 million.

Share Blackstone would like to avoid, after all, Blackstone has the worst share = Deutsche Telekom ebidta of Germany. Reasonable shares of Germany would be today, but Daimler, Siemens, Epcos, Singulus, Gildemeister, Solon.
