Healthcare, financials and technology IPOs dominated Nasdaq listings for Q1 2015 as the Exchange captured 68% of U.S. IPO activity. Joe Brantuk, Vice President of New Listings, tells TheStreet’s Jill Malandrino healthcare has been the leading sector, a trend the Nasdaq has seen over the past five quarters, including Spark Therapeutics and Cellectis. Brantuk explains Nasdaq remains cautiously optimistic on the IPO outlook, as long as the market fundamentals and disciplined valuations remain in place. Nasdaq expects healthcare, financial, consumer and technology IPOs to pick up in the second quarter, Brantuk says.
