IPOs: 2018 September

We’ve picked up this month with more IPOs.  Elanco and IRCON are two old technology companies who have kept up with the new technology and released a lot of value to shareholders with their IPOs this month.  A few Cannabis companies went public this month but it was difficult to understand when they were founded and were left off the list.  Qutoutiao is a news recommendation app with a focus on light reading with entertainment as its main content.  It also went public within 3 years of its founding in Shanghai.
