The 3 most anticipated IPOs by investorsS&P 500SPCFD:SPXSwissquoteWhile the SpaceX stock has just been listed on the stock exchange and analysts are currently debating whether its valuation is already excessive, I am taking a look today at the next major IPOs expected on Wall Street before the end of the year. What we are seeing is that after several years marked by a slowdown in IPO activity, certain private companies are generating exceptional interest due to their size, growth, and strategic position in future-oriented sectors. The SpaceX IPO has demonstrated this. The stock is indeed down from its recent peak, but this is often what is observed in the weeks following an IPO. On TradingView, the ticker for SpaceX stock is SPCX. SPCX Currently, three names stand out in IPO expectations: OpenAI, Stripe, and Databricks. Note that I have not included Anthropic (the Claude AI assistant), as its potential IPO is more likely expected in 2027 or 2028. The first company on everyone’s lips is OpenAI. Having become a key player in artificial intelligence thanks to the global success of ChatGPT, the company is now considered the leader of the generative AI revolution. Its influence extends far beyond the tech sector, impacting businesses, education, research, and even public administrations. A potential IPO of OpenAI could become one of the most significant financial events of the decade and attract massive interest from investors worldwide. Stripe is also among the most anticipated IPOs. Founded in 2010, the company has established itself as one of the leading global online payment platforms. Its solutions enable millions of businesses to easily manage digital transactions. Thanks to steady growth and a strong international presence, Stripe is often seen as one of the best-positioned private companies to succeed on Wall Street. Its IPO could become one of the largest ever in the fintech sector. The chart below shows the 3 most anticipated IPOs on Wall Street, with a comparison to SpaceX’s recent IPO. Finally, Databricks completes this closely followed trio. Specializing in data analytics and infrastructure for artificial intelligence, the company benefits from the growing demand for technologies that process and leverage massive volumes of data. Databricks holds a strategic position at the heart of the AI ecosystem and works with many major companies around the world. These three companies embody the major current technological trends: artificial intelligence, digital payments, and data valorization. Their potential IPOs could not only attract billions of dollars in capital but also set the tone for the next major trend in the S&P 500 index.
