Vlad Tenev
CEO, Robinhood
|
"So many announced private companies, including... space exploration companies and Frontier AI labs that are expected to be entering the public markets." Tenev is signaling a robust IPO pipeline. When high-profile "story stocks" (like SpaceX or major AI labs) go public, retail participation spikes. This creates a flywheel effect: high-hype IPOs draw users to brokerages, increasing volume and margin balances. LONG. Position for a resurgence in the IPO market and the specific sectors (Space/AI) leading it. Macroeconomic tightening could freeze the IPO window; valuation concerns for new listings. |

Ali Ghodsi
CEO, Databricks
|
Databricks is delaying its IPO despite being free cash flow positive. The company prefers private capitalization to weather potential public market volatility (fearing a repeat of 2022). They want to invest in long-term R&D (5-10 years) without the quarterly pressure to cut costs or layoff staff if the stock drops. Raised Series L funding specifically to stay private longer. Prolonged delay could fatigue early employees or investors seeking liquidity. |
