Choppy Waters for IPOs: Startups Struggle Amidst Rising Interest Rates
Portfolio Pulse from Aditi Ganguly
The IPO market has been struggling due to rising interest rates and recessionary headwinds. High-profile IPOs like Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:ARM) and Instacart (NYSE:CART) have seen their stocks wobble soon after listing, with Arm's stock falling nearly 15% and Instacart's plunging over 24%. The Federal Reserve's plan to continue raising interest rates has deterred companies from going public due to concerns about rising borrowing costs. The current hawkish backdrop is unfavorable for IPOs as growth expectations and funding availability remain low.
