, the threat of gas rationing and recession, and the most severe inflation in decades, driven by energy costs.

That would trigger an announcement of the initial public offering or “intention to float,” as soon as the first week of September, the people said, marking the beginning of a roughly four-week period for buyers to get ready to invest.
