Figma's Historic IPO Surge Crashes Back to Reality

Figma stock (FIG) has seen a sharp reversal since its record-breaking IPO. Indeed, it lost about $21 billion in market value just days after going public. The San Francisco-based design software company opened at $85 on July 31, but its shares have been trading above and below that level all week. Interestingly, Figma saw a historical debut, as its shares jumped 250% on day one. This was the biggest in at least three decades for a U.S.-listed company that raised more than $1 billion, according to Bloomberg.

The momentum briefly continued to push the stock as high as $142.92 on Aug. 1, more than four times its IPO price. However, shares have since dropped to around $78. Analysts, like Steve Sosnick of Interactive Brokers (IBKR), note that such moves show the market's speculative nature, with interest likely to fade if shares remain below the opening price. He also pointed out that only 7% of Figma's shares were available to trade, thereby creating a shortage that drove prices up quickly before demand cooled. Despite the pullback, Figma's valuation remains high at roughly 37 times sales, which is far higher than peers. For context, if comparing to companies that are in the S&P 500 (SPY), only Palantir Technologies (PLTR), with a ratio above 90 times estimated sales, is higher. Other recent IPOs such as CoreWeave (CRWV) and Circle Internet Group (CRCL) also saw explosive early gains before losing more than 30% from their highs, but Figma's rapid surge and steep drop make it one of the most dramatic stock debuts of the year. Is FIG Stock a Good Buy? Overall, analysts see Figma as a high-growth SaaS firm with strong gross margins and retention rates. Although some are cautious about its valuation, most see its product stickiness as a key advantage in its market. As a result, investors expect it to continue growing.

NVDA stock closed at $182.70, which is a record high on a split-adjusted basis. The chipmaker's stock has now risen 36% this year and hit 19 all-time highs in the process. The latest peak comes on optimism related to a new AI model from OpenAI and the potential for increased spending by Tesla (TSLA), both of which should positively impact Nvidia's sales. Nvidia's shares have now increased nearly 75% over the last 12 weeks, giving the company a market capitalization of $4.46 trillion and making it the most valuable publicly traded company in the world. Tariffs NVDA stock also got a boost this week when it was announced that there are widespread exemptions from U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed 100% tariff on microchip imports for companies such as Nvidia. The Silicon Valley-based chipmaker announced this spring that it plans to develop up to $500 billion in AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next four years. News that privately held OpenAI launched GPT-5, its latest chatbot, is seen as good news for Nvidia's chip sales. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently named Nvidia a key partner. Additionally, Nvidia could receive more cash from Tesla, which is downsizing its internal microchip lineup and disbanding its supercomputer team. Tesla is expected to rely more on hardware and microchips from Nvidia moving forward. Is NVDA Stock a Buy? The stock of Nvidia has a consensus Strong Buy rating among 38 Wall Street analysts. That rating is based on 34 Buy, three Hold, and one Sell recommendations issued in the past three months. The average NVDA price target of $186.24 implies 1.94% upside from current levels.
