Worth magazine calls him the IPO King.
Bill Smith founded Renaissance Capital in 1991. He built it into the gold standard for IPO research. Today he runs two NYSE-listed ETFs. He runs two research platforms. IPO Intelligence for institutions. IPO Pro for individual investors and advisors. For 35 years, Wall Street’s biggest names have trusted Bill’s research. JP Morgan. Citi. BlackRock. The underwriters behind 94% of every IPO dollar raised in America. They get the research that separates tomorrow’s winners from the wreckage.
His firm has analyzed more than 11,000 IPOs. It built the standard for new-stock research. Before Renaissance, he was a banker at Kidder Peabody and Bear Stearns. He holds a BS from Villanova and an MBA from Wharton. The first three years after a stock goes public are where fortunes get made and lost. Bill’s new book, The New AI Stock Edge, hands you the pro playbook for that window.
Inside are the tools his firm uses to rate every new stock. The MUSCLE Method — six filters that separate AI winners from wreckage. And the AI IPO Scorecard. Bill also hosts New Stock Signals, bringing pro research to everyday investors.
Away from the markets, Bill chairs the board of USA Water Polo. He lives in Greenwich with his wife, Kathy.
The biggest IPOs in history are coming. Bill spent 35 years and 11,000 deals learning how the pros play them. Now that playbook is yours.
