The 12 worst-performing IPOs of the year

From Business Insider

Groupon's initial rally is now history. The stock closed at $26.11 on the day of its IPO and traded higher for a few days, but has plummeted to $17.24 per share on Nov. 23.

Other companies that were heavily oversubscribed at the time of their IPO have also suffered similar fates. We've compiled a list of 12 companies with over $1 billion market cap, that have tumbled since their IPO.

NOTE: Most investors are unable to get an IPO at the offer price. As such, we rank the IPOs to-date performance based on the closing price on the first trading day. The list includes only U.S. companies with a current market-cap of $1 billion and over. (Source: Google Finance/NYSE)
