Webuy Global (NASDAQ:WBUY) stock is falling on Friday following the e-commerce company’s initial public offering (IPO) yesterday.

Shares of WBUY stock initially jumped 33.5% during its first day of trading. However, the company’s stock is now giving up those gains on Friday. As of this writing, shares of WBUY stock have fallen 28.8%.

This type of movement isn’t all that uncommon during a company’s IPO. Oftentimes, investors push shares higher when the stock debuts, only for that interest to wane in the hours and days after going public.

This sent WBUY stock on a wild ride yesterday, with the company’s shares almost doubling in price at one point. However, it was unable to maintain that inflated price and dropped down to just that 33.5% gain it experienced when markets closed yesterday.
