Is This the Return of Hot IPOs?
After a prolonged slowdown, the U.S. tech IPO market is showing strong signs of revival in 2025. Since CoreWeave’s breakout debut in March, a wave of notable tech companies—including AIRO Group, Circle, Chime, and others—have gone public with strong investor demand and impressive early stock performance. From cloud infrastructure and fintech to aerospace and AI, this new cohort reflects renewed appetite for high-growth tech stories amid improving market conditions. Read the full article here.
SaltLight Capital: NVIDIA ($NVDA) Investment Case
SaltLight Capital Management strategically rebuilt their NVIDIA position in 1Q 2025 after the stock’s valuation correction, viewing it as a cornerstone investment in their multi-decade AI transformation thesis. The fund believes artificial intelligence represents a fundamental shift from traditional “dumb” software to intelligent applications, with NVIDIA’s Blackwell series offering 30-fold performance improvements that will drive a new wave of AI product launches. SaltLight’s conviction stems from their internal experience with AI agents delivering high ROI and productivity gains, leading them to anticipate strong enterprise adoption that will benefit NVIDIA’s infrastructure dominance. As cloud providers seek to monetize billions in AI capex and enterprises face the critical decision between cloud migration or building on-premises AI data centers, NVIDIA emerges as the essential enabler of this transition, positioning the company to capture value from the widespread embedding of intelligence across all software applications—much like web connectivity transformed technology two decades ago.

Michael Klein Sells 250K $OKLO Shares
Michael Klein, a board member at Oklo and a prominent serial SPAC sponsor—who also led the SPAC that took Oklo public—sold 250,000 shares at $63.06/share, totaling $15.76M. The sale reduced his vested holdings by 27.8%. Oklo, a next-generation nuclear energy company, is gaining attention for its potential role in powering the AI and data center infrastructure boom with clean, compact, and scalable energy solutions. This insider sale comes amid a sharp rally in Oklo’s stock, which has surged from below $20 in April to over $70 in June—a move of more than 250% in just two months. You can track insider activity like this daily with InsiderEdge, available in the BBAE app.
Trending Tickers: Novo Breaks With $HIMS, $CCCM’s Bitcoin Deal, $QS Hits Milestone
This week, several companies were in the spotlight following key developments across healthcare, crypto, and energy storage. Here’s a breakdown:
- Hims & Hers ($HIMS): Novo Nordisk terminated its collaboration with Hims & Hers due to concerns over compounded semaglutide offerings and alleged misleading marketing. The decision follows heightened scrutiny of telehealth practices in the weight loss drug space and may pose reputational and regulatory challenges for Hims & Hers.
- Columbus Circle Capital ($CCCM): SPAC CCCM announced a $1 billion merger with Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap Financial, creating a bitcoin-native public company focused on holding BTC reserves and offering monetization strategies for institutional clients. The deal brings immediate bitcoin exposure to equity investors and marks a major crypto-finance crossover.
- QuantumScape ($QS): QuantumScape reported that its Cobra ceramic separator process has officially entered baseline production, a key milestone in scaling solid-state battery manufacturing. The update supports the company’s path toward commercial deployment and highlights significant improvements in efficiency and scalability.
