Despite a rising stock market, the initial public offering (IPO) market remains sluggish, with industry experts suggesting that the trend may continue into 2025. Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman noted a growing number of companies expressing strong intentions to pursue IPOs next year. However, analysts attribute the current stagnation in the IPO market to the dominance of big technology firms, which are providing more attractive returns compared to potential IPO candidates. This situation raises questions about the future landscape of public offerings as companies weigh their options against the backdrop of a booming tech sector.
