What is ORBIT? Why the 180 Days After an IPO Matter More Than Day One
ORBIT tracks post-IPO events that move stock prices — lockup expirations, quiet period endings, analyst initiations, and secondary offerings.
What is BellipoBellipo is the first platform built entirely around the IPO lifecycle — from S-1 filing to first trade, lockup expiration, and beyond. We deliver real-time pipeline tracking, AI-powered S-1 briefs, and proprietary demand scoring, plus precision alerts: PING fires when pricing becomes official — typically the evening before trading, occasionally the morning of, always before the open — carrying the final offer price. STRIKE fires the instant the first trade prints. Retail investors get to prepare for IPO day with the same intelligence institutions take for granted.
Learn moreWhy Post-IPO Matters
Most IPO coverage ends after day one. The stock opens, the return is reported, and the media moves on. But for investors who hold beyond day one — or who are considering buying after the initial hype fades — the next 180 days contain the most consequential events.
Lockup Expiration — The 180-Day Event
IPO lockup periods typically last 180 days. During this time, company insiders, early investors, and employees cannot sell their shares. When the lockup expires, billions of dollars in shares suddenly become available for sale. Historically, stocks drop 1-3% on average around lockup expiration — but some drop 10-20% if insiders sell aggressively.

Quiet Period End
For 25-40 days after an IPO, the underwriting banks cannot publish research or price targets on the newly listed stock. When the quiet period ends, a wave of analyst initiations hits the market — typically with Buy ratings (since the underwriters led the deal). This creates a short-term price catalyst that ORBIT tracks.
What ORBIT Monitors
ORBIT tracks four post-IPO events: lockup expiration date and insider selling activity, quiet period end and analyst initiation coverage, secondary offering announcements, and earnings report dates. Each event is tracked on a countdown timeline within Bellipo Terminal.
