-17% Sanchez Energy

For subscribers we said AVOID

Sanchez Energy priced at $22, down 12% from $25 price range-midpoint.

Then traded down -17% from the IPO price.  Pre-IPO video thestreet.com

The investment bankers  made a colossal pricing mistake.   On the first day SN was off an astounding 27% from the original price range mid-point — what were they (not) thinking?

For the record, the lead underwriters were Johnson Rice & Company L.L.C. & Macquarie Capital.
