Editor’s notes and caveats - IPO timing is fluid: calendars are typically firmed up 5–10 days before pricing; dates/tickers/terms may change or slip. We’ll refresh this if banks add or move deals. (stockanalysis.com) - “Expected listing window” reflects current filings/press and standard sequencing from launch to pricing to first trade; specific trade dates will be confirmed in final prospectus press releases. (Inference based on issuer/underwriter disclosures and Renaissance Capital week‑ahead guidance.) (renaissancecapital.com)
Would you like this reframed for “the next 30 days” (Sep 24–Oct 24) instead of calendar October, or converted into a compact table for print layout?

Notes and methodology - Source of record for per-bank targets/ratings/dates and overall consensus is each stock’s MarketBeat “Forecast & Price Target” page; where a bank’s latest note was not visible in the page snippet, we supplemented with reputable aggregators (Investing.com, TipRanks, Barron’s) and flagged items not visible. See citations per line. (marketbeat.com) - Additional bank-specific updates: - TSLA: GS raising target to $395 with Neutral (Hold) on 2025-09-18 (Barron’s; also reflected on MarketBeat). (barrons.com) - AMZN: MS to $300 Overweight (2025-07-10); BAC to $272 Buy (2025-08-01); Citi to $270 Buy (2025-08-01/08-13). (investing.com) - GOOGL: GS Buy $234 (2025-09-03); Citi to $280 Buy (2025-09-15). (investing.com) - Rating mapping used in parentheses: - Buy equivalents: Buy, Overweight, Outperform, Positive, Strong Buy - Hold equivalents: Hold, Neutral, Equal Weight, Market Perform - Sell equivalents: Sell, Underweight, Underperform
Items requiring confirmation or where no recent public update was visible - NVDA: The MS and JPM latest specific target lines were partially misaligned on the MarketBeat page; MS’s most recent summer-2025 target widely reported around mid- to high-$200s post-split; JPM latest target/date not displayed in the visible snippet. (marketbeat.com) - META and TSLA: JPM and Citi lines were not shown in the visible MarketBeat snippets at time of check; TipRanks/press carried recent META Citi $915. If you’d like, I can run a deeper pull (paywalled note summaries or additional aggregators) to fill these remaining gaps. (tipranks.com)
