Instacart’s stock ends below IPO price for first time

(Reuters) -Grocery delivery platform Instacart’s stock on Tuesday closed for the first time below the price in its initial public offering.

Shares of Instacart, formally called Maplebear, dropped 1.65% to end the session at $29.89, compared to the company’s IPO price of $30 on Sept. 18.

Chip designer Arm Holdings’ stock dipped 1.69% to $53.52 compared to the $51 price set in its IPO on Sept. 13. After surging in its Wall Street debut, Arm’s stock has mostly lost ground, and it has touched intra-day lows below $51 in three of the past four sessions.

Meanwhile, shares of Klaviyo, which debuted last Wednesday, dipped 1.6% to $34.11. The marketing automation firm’s stock remains above its $30 IPO price, but well below its intraday high of $37 in its first day of trading.

The lackluster performances of Arm and Instacart’s stocks since their market debuts add to doubts about whether a hoped-for revival in IPOs will materialize after a drought of more than 18 months.
