    Wow. When Poshmark went public in early 2021, the stock opened at $97.50. This deal values shares at $17.90. https://twitter.com/...

    Poshmark IPOed for $3B last year and is getting acquired for less than half that $1.2B. It really puts the excellence of Figma in context to consider its valuation doubled from $10B to $20B over the same period. https://techcrunch.com/...

    Will be interesting to see if this is a new trend - non-US buyers acquiring US tech businesses - at least in part as a response to the FTC's pre-disposition to challenge US-US tech acquisitions. https://twitter.com/...

    It IPOed at 3.5 billion and ended first day of trading at over 7 billion in January of 2021 Every consumer IPO of past 2-3 years after a decade of existence as private company has made retail bag holders That's the strongest case for going public sooner https://techcrunch.com/...

    Poshmark getting acquired for $17.90/share. First day of trading 20 months ago it was $97.50. Glad there's a floor. https://www.wsj.com/...?

    More on Poshmark/Naver: Two sides first met 9 months ago. First discussed strategic partnership. No bank auction. Naver not worried about CFIUS review. https://www.axios.com/...
