## Resource

The Financial Times reports that Wall Street is earning larger fees from SpaceX's initial public offering and renewed mega-merger activity. IPO underwriting fees typically range from three to seven percent of proceeds, with greenshoe options and lockups shaping liquidity. Advisory fees on transactions above $10 billion can reach into the high tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Recent examples of large announced deals include ExxonMobil's move for Pioneer Natural Resources and Chevron's agreement to acquire Hess. A stronger fee environment draws resources to exchanges, law firms, auditors, and secondary platforms. Founders and CFOs face choices among IPOs, direct listings, spin-offs, and sales as they prepare for shifting market conditions.
