is there an actual lockup period on selling V shares if you got allocated some? i know it is discouraged to sell right away but that is different than an actual lockup period.
It doesn't matter. MA debuted near a market bottom. BX came out near a market top. V will most likely be part of an index in the future as it is the leader in card transactions and has a globally recognized brand. V is also a competitor of AXP, MA, and DFS. Plus, this will display the strength/weakness of the IPO market.
