More PE bubble stuff - Is PE Having Its WeWork Moment…???

https://adventuresincapitalism.com/2020/02/18/is-…

“Why expose yourself to valuation by the masses, when you can massage numbers and raise money privately—often at a premium valuation? I suspect that over the next few years, this trend will revert to historic form and companies will once again need the pubic markets to raise capital—especially as their PE shareholders are forced down the IPO road as a form of liquidity. Oddly, this will be at precisely the moment when the smallest percentage of capital in financial history is controlled by active managers. Could this be an unusually attractive moment for active managers to buy into IPOs from distressed sellers?”
