Little known fact: an Idealab’s company Goto.com invented keyword auctions. GoTo changed named to Overture. Sued Google. Yahoo bought Overture. Settled with Google for 2.7m shares. Those shares are now worth $4 billion. pic.twitter.com/tYu6bJsXe8

I wonder how many investors bought stock at the IPO and still own it today? That would be impressive.

If you compare two different investors with ~10 year holding periods:
VC: invests in Google type company series A and exists at IPO
Retail Investor: invests in Google type company at IPO, exist in 10 years.
Retail investor has tons more info then top tier VC at investment date

@andrew__reed I’ve always wanted to do some analysis on this investment strategy:
Take the top decile of VC firms, and just index across all those companies that go public backed by those VC firms.
The Seqouia Public Index, Benchmark Public Index, etc.
How would that perform?
