FACTBOX-Hot or not? How recent high-profile US IPOs have performed

Rewrites paragraph 1-3 with latest developments and fresh analyst comment, adds new listings, updates graphic to latest prices and stock performance from debut throughout

By Niket Nishant and Manya Saini

June 12 (Reuters) - Digital bank Chime's CHYM.O debut is expected to add more firepower to a recovering IPO market after a string of blockbuster listings in the last few months.

While the strong performance of recent listings like Circle CRCL.N, CoreWeave CRWV.O and eToro ETOR.O has boosted confidence, analysts say macroeconomic uncertainty and tariff-related risks could still make both investors and issuers more selective.

"Chime could absolutely have a major ripple effect, as many private companies are watching this closely, not just for valuation, but also for secondary market liquidity, demand depth, and overall investor appetite," said Kat Liu, vice president at IPOX.

Here's how an ETF tracking major newly public stocks has fared against the benchmark S&P 500 .SPX over the past year:
