  • #60: Access Denied! Retail Investors were Left Out of the Cerebras IPO
    May 16 2026

    *Sponsor: VCX --- The public ticker for private tech. Visit getvcx.com for more info*

    Craig shares the frustration of retail investors who were largely left out of the biggest IPO this year. The Cerebras IPO doubled at the open, but only ETRADE account holders received small allocations, while Fidelity, and SoFi investors were ignored.

    Why? A familiar retail foe.

    Craig also explains why he thinks the Space IPO will be different.

    In IPO Radar news, the Quantinuum IPO and Lime IPO are coming soon. Plus, Blue Origin in considering its first venture funding round as it looks to capitalize on the Space IPO and private space race.
