  • Markets: Investors shook off last week’s post-holiday blues with all three major indexes snapping three-day losing streaks yesterday, embracing a new outlook as they wait for more economic data and a new earnings season to start this week.
  • CAVA rose as analysts got their first chance to comment on the lunch spot since its IPO and were largely bullish on the bowl-maker—it’s already nearly doubled since its market debut last month.

IPO: CAVA The Mediterranean Food Chain, and Artificial Intelligence

By Staff Reporters

Stocks climbed again yesterday—and it wasn’t just tech companies carrying the team this time. The DJIA was the best-performing major index, showing how the current market rally is spreading beyond the A.I. frenzy. But the Artificial Intelligence frenzy is still frenzied. Microsoft, seen as the de facto AI leader, hit a record high.

On Wall Street yesterday, CAVA went public in the sixth-biggest US IPO of the year. Shares of the Mediterranean fast-casual chain popped 99%, giving it a market value of $4.9 billion at market close. Cava’s successful debut could inspire other restaurant brands, such as Panera and Fogo De Chão, to accelerate their plans to go public and wake up a slow IPO market.
