This is definitely not the case. The financial markets and the financial condition of the respective company will have a tremendous influence on the liquidity of the securities. This is not just the common stock, but also any preferred stock and credit. What an IPO does tell you is that an underwriter/underwriters are able to convince people to invest in the offering. This can be done by some savvy salespeople. This does not however mean that there will be constant buyers out there to whom to unload in the secondary market. Also, as the financials erode on the company, investors will undoubtedly lose interest in the security. Hope that helps.

If a company is listed on the NYSE or the AMEX there will be a pretty liquid market - tho not necessarily at a price you want to accept. There are some companies listed OTC or especially the pink sheets that may go days with zero volume. The price per share is irrelevant in this. Just check any stock you have interest in for average daily volume.

Absolutely NOT! If I can afford it, I could come and buy all your stocks and your company would be mine!
