The U.S. new stock issuance market has entered a seasonal quiet period, with delays in listing plans and stock market volatility affecting the confidence of growth-oriented investors. As of February 17, this year’s total fundraising through IPOs in the U.S. is approximately $7.2 billion. Despite 16 transactions exceeding $100 million in size, the performance of new stocks has been mixed. Industries such as industrials and consumer sectors, which are more “immune” to the threats of artificial intelligence (AI), have performed better; meanwhile, technology companies are struggling, with some IPO prices dropping by at least 15%.
