Just curious as to the outlook on Cantor nowadays. I've seen some rankings from Bloomberg that has them placed number one in IPO underwriting and Global Finance Magazine ranked them as the number one investment bank in North America for equities. However, I thought this forum would give me a better idea of the outlook of the firm.

This forum will start clowning on Cantor again after the UBS show calms down.
On a real note though, I’d put them into the same group at Stephens/Lincoln/Truist/SocGen/CreditAg/Stifel type banks. Definitely better than a LMM Boutique
