Stock Market Live May 14: S&P 500 (VOO) Rises as IPOs Return to Popularity
Briefly

Recent activity in the IPO market shows increased interest, particularly in fintech, with Israeli firm eToro pricing its shares above expectations at $52 each, which aligns with broader trends indicating robust demand for US stocks. With its market cap set at $4.2 billion, eToro's IPO on Nasdaq underscores investor confidence in this sector. Additionally, analysts have upgraded some defense stocks, hinting at a diverse investment landscape despite muted earnings reports from companies like Tower Semiconductor and Arcos Dorados.
"The new IPO will trade on the Nasdaq under ticker symbol 'ETOR.' The company is selling 6 million shares for and raising $310 million, valuing it at $4.2 billion in market capitalization."
"BMO Capital Markets comments that 'demand for US stocks is and should be robust,' and calls US stocks 'the best assets' to own today with 'the best reward' for investors."
