Now, ahead of its IPO, investors are reportedly discussing a valuation of $1.8 to $2 trillion. That’s roughly double in about five months. And not one ordinary investor got to own a share of it. That’s how these mega-IPOs work. The biggest gains happen privately, before the public is allowed in. By the time you can buy, the price already assumes almost everything goes right. So I’m not chasing the IPO. I’m watching where the private investors who already doubled their money put their winnings next.See my #1 pick for the Claude IPO.2/10/2025monthly$0.0450 - 12.47%2/26/20252/26/20253/20/202511/8/2024monthly$0.0450 - 12.6%1/29/20251/29/20252/19/202511/8/2024monthly$0.0450 - 12.6%12/27/202412/27/20241/22/202511/8/2024monthly$0.0450-$0.015025.00%12.33%11/26/202411/26/202412/19/2024This table shows Prospect Capital's monthly dividend history, including payout amounts, yield, dividend changes, and key dates.
