SGShares of CXMT Corp experienced a dramatic surge of nearly 470% on their debut on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, marking the largest initial public offering (IPO) in Asia this year. The stock opened at 49.50 yuan per share, significantly higher than its issue price of 8.66 yuan, giving the chipmaker a market capitalization of approximately 3.3 trillion yuan ($487.31 billion). This made CXMT the most valuable company listed in China, surpassing ICBC, which had previously held that title. The IPO raised 57.92 billion yuan ($8.6 billion), with potential additional funds if the over-allotment option is fully utilized. However, only 6.73% of CXMT's shares are immediately available for trading, which may lead to increased price volatility.
