This week in PSPC
SPAC mergers
6 mergers announced this week, with Pioneer / Acorns getting the most media buzz. All of the announced mergers increased on day one, although small “pops” and the majority of these PSPCs are always below their net asset value.
PSPC IPO
SPAC S-1
Notable increase in new S-1s with 9 filings for over $ 1 billion in potential new PSPC capital. This brings the total number of PSPCs awaiting pricing to 279 … a pretty big backlog.
