The countdown is over and the biggest IPO of 2014 has arrived -- it's time for Alibaba's arrival on public markets, after an initial delay took the offer through the end of summer. For the last month, Yahoo! shares have served as a proxy for market watchers waiting on Alibaba's roadshow. Plus, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison steps down from the lead role at the company he brought public in 1986 . And, Jim Cramer is drilling down on one bet that's been a money-loser for a lot of investors in 2014, but now, he says, the offshore driller is set to strike it rich on public markets, and Jim is looking for double-digit gains.
