TechnicalRegister
A period after a flotation or deal during which insiders are barred from selling shares.
The share price sagged as the post-IPO lock-up expired and early backers began to sell.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
