Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith has underwritten 20 SPACs raising $6.8B. The dashboard gathers them into one sortable table — status, target, and the dates each deal actually hit — instead of one page per vehicle.

  • Every vehicle in one searchable table — ticker, status, target, IPO / DA / merger dates and size
  • The people behind them, linked to their own pages
  • Per-SPAC deal terms: registered vs priced unit structure and sponsor promote
  • The 8-K lifecycle timeline behind each deal
  • A watchlist with price history on every position

Part of the SPACs & Real Estate plan — $100/mo at launch pricing ($250 list)
