The IPO market is sending us mixed messages

Published on April 16, 2021 at 03:49 PM

If you only stayed up to date with the Coinbase direct listing this week, you're forgiven. It was, after all, one heck of a flotation.

But underneath the cryptocurrency exchange's public debut, other IPO news that matters did happen this week. And the news adds up to a somewhat muddled picture of the current IPO market.

To cap off the week, let's run through IPO news from UiPath, Coinbase, Grab, AppLovin and Zenvia. The aggregate dataset should help you form your own perspective about where today's IPO markets really are in terms of warmth for the often-unprofitable unicorns of the world.

Recall that we're in the midst of a slightly more turbulent IPO window than we saw during the last quarter. After seemingly watching every company's IPO price above-range and then charge higher on opening day, several companies pulled their offerings as the second quarter started. It was a surprise.

Since then we've seen Compass go public, but not at quite the level of performance it might have anticipated, and, then, this week, much has happened.

What follows is a mini-digest of IPO news from the week, tagged with our best read of just how bullish (or not) the happening really was:
