After all, higher investor confidence typically leads to higher valuations, and it also makes it easier to sell shares at a premium. But lately stability has been in pretty short supply, what with the widespread recession fears and ongoing turmoil in the banking sector \u2013 and one tell-tale volatility measure has been riding high for much of March. No wonder, then, that businesses are holding off on going public: according to data from Bloomberg, firms have raised a mere $19.7 billion from initial public offerings (IPOs) so far this year \u2013 a four-year low-water mark and a 70% dropoff from the same time last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-should-i-care\">Why should I care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>For markets:&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><em>Second to none.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the gloomy IPO landscape, secondary offerings \u2013 the sale of shares by companies that are already listed \u2013 appear to be a bright spot, raking in 48% more than the same time last year. That could be down to companies capitalizing on the early-year rally \u2013 plus, investors are more likely to place a bet on familiar, established firms anyway. But markets as a whole still have a long way to go, and some analysts think they\u2019ll only regain their luster once folks have an idea where interest rates are headed.<br><br><strong><em>Zooming out:&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><em>Call to ARMs.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SoftBank will be watching markets very closely indeed and hoping for a turnaround. The tech investor\u2019s planning to list chip-designing firm ARM on the stock market later this year, and it\u2019s already making some canny preparations: last week the company&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/softbank-owned-arm-seeks-raise-prices-ahead-us-ipo-ft-2023-03-23\/\">announced<\/a>&nbsp;that it\u2019s upping the price of its chip designs, used in over 95% of smartphones \u2013 which should boost profit and tempt some hard-nosed investors when it&nbsp;<em>does<\/em>&nbsp;pull the trigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally Posted March
