    Best performing Shell Companies of last trading session

    SPACs, commonly known as “shell companies,” have been listed at record numbers in the past year, but they’re not a new phenomenon. Among the people who have founded SPACs, an increasingly common form of bringing businesses public, are entrepreneurs, hedge fund managers, and sports executives.

    SPACs are simply shell companies with no direct business activities but are formed primarily to raise money to buy an existing private corporation via an initial public offering (IPO). A SPAC achieves this by selling either stock, normally at $10 per share, or warrants, which are options that allow buyers to buy even more shares later at a set price.

    The Gores Group raised $300 million to launch a new special-purpose acquisition firm or SPAC. At the start of Friday’s market session, Gores Holdings VI Inc., (Nasdaq: GHVIU), was selling $20 above its original $10 public offering bid. According to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company has not had any materials discussions with an acquirer looking to go public.

    These investment funds became especially common in 2020 as investors were driven away from bonds and equities due to the low-interest rates pursued by the Federal Reserve and the broad uncertainty of the equity market. Bloomberg reports that SPACs have earned more than $70 billion so far this year.

    Following shell companies are the best performers of yesterday’s trading session.
