According to a report by Insider<\/a>, some VCs are even turning to secondary markets to buy shares in the hottest AI startups.<\/p>\n This uptick in secondary market activity is not new. PitchBook wrote last December<\/a> that while \u201cvolume of shares being offered by sellers continues to greatly outweigh interest from buyers [\u2026] institutional buyers are slowly coming back to scoop up secondary stakes.\u201d<\/p>\n And according to data from secondary exchange Caplight<\/a>, bids for secondary shares perked up after tech stocks plummeted in early 2023. In turn, that led to a smaller bid-ask spread<\/a> between buyers and sellers of secondary shares.<\/p>\n All we had to do was wait for late-stage startup shareholders to capitulate to new valuation realities and tech valuations to perk up slightly<\/a>. The combination of seller pessimism and modest buyer optimism has seemingly done the trick.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/br><\/br><\/br><\/p>\n
