Vance Spencer, co-founder at Framework Ventures, reflects on the aftermath of the 2021 IPO boom, observing significant valuation declines in several sectors. According to Spencer, companies such as RKLB saw prices fall to $2, and insuretech and fintech stocks like Hood and Coin also suffered substantial losses. He also points out that the current data center complex is down 95% compared to today. Spencer suggests that for each breakthrough company like SpaceX, there are multiple fast-follow IPOs, SPACs, and RTOs that face difficult outcomes.
Spencer has previously tracked landmark public offerings, noting that Google's SpaceX IPO was oversubscribed despite only a marginal price movement of -0.19% on the day. The comparison highlights the volatility in outcomes between high-profile debuts and fast-follow listings. Recent comments reflect ongoing challenges for companies and investors after the initial IPO excitement.
