SPACs have seen a resurgence with new mergers announced in sectors like cryptocurrency, autonomous vehicles, and nuclear power. Recently, Kodiak Robotics plans to go public via a SPAC with a $2.5 billion pre-money valuation. Other significant mergers include Veraxa Biotech at $1.3 billion, Twenty One Capital at $3.6 billion, Terra Innovatum at $475 million, and Terrestrial Energy at $925 million. Investor caution has increased due to past failures in SPAC ventures, influencing stricter deal assessments. The number of SPAC sponsors has decreased, with more experienced entities taking charge. The overall IPO market remains inactive, limiting investment opportunities in new tech companies. Current market volatility affects stock indices, particularly the Nasdaq, which has seen significant declines. Many companies have paused their plans to go public, but SPACs still provide a quicker path to market entry. The investment landscape now presents risks, especially for newer firms without solid earnings history, as SPACs are known for share price volatility.
