This week on FinCap Friday, we take a look at recent news surrounding the biggest IPO of the year. Some people are excited about the IPO market in 2020 and think positively about the future of more IPOs, while other people are not feeling so good about this event. The important thing to do before forming an opinion, however, is to make sure we understand the basics of what it means for a company to go through the IPO process. That's where we'll start!

If you're short on time, try our simplified FinCap Friday (NO-TECH) with the questions embedded right in the slide deck or you can use our EdPuzzle version here!
