#30: Is the IPO Pipeline Shutdown with the U.S. Government? Plus, Cerebras Series G and Kraken IPO.
Description
Will the U.S. Government shutdown lead to an IPO shutdown?
Unfortunately, Craig thinks it will. The 2025 IPO window was already closing for the year, and the politician-induced delay will have a significant impact on IPOs unless it is resolved promptly.
Craig lists the companies caught "in limbo" and the candidates most likely to push their IPOs to 2026.
In IPO Radar News, Cerebras resurfaces, Kraken prepares to IPO, and the Fervo Energy IPO heats up.
