History

Historical Context

When Netscape went public in August 1995, its shares opened at $28 and closed at $58.25, giving the company a $2.9 billion market value and sparking the “Netscape moment” that fueled the mid-1990s dot-com boom and a surge in venture-capital funding. Today’s Moonshot AI IPO, led by Goldman Sachs, seeks a $50 billion valuation, echoing that transformative precedent.
