232 IPOs. Seven cleared the screen. (ad)

232 companies listed on U.S. exchanges this year, raising over $251 billion by late July alone - more than five times 2025's full-year total. Yet most carry almost no analyst coverage.

We screened the entire class for average daily volume above 500,000 shares, market caps over $100 million, and at least 18 months of cash runway. Only seven names cleared every filter - four already trading, three still private.
