Cerebras Systems (CBRS) debuted at $350/share—nearly double its $185 IPO price—before settling at $310 in afternoon trading. The $5.55B offering marked the largest U.S. tech listing since Uber, with bankers holding options to push proceeds to $6.38B. Demand reflected pent-up appetite for growth stocks after a 2022 drought.

The launch coincided with a semiconductor rally led by AI infrastructure spending. Intel, AMD, and Micron have each doubled year-to-date, while the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) gained 58%. Nvidia’s dominance in AI accelerators underscores the sector’s momentum.

Behind the frenzy: proliferating AI agents requiring unprecedented compute power. This trend has turned chipmakers into market darlings, though valuations now test investor discipline.
