In this article, we’ll look at 11 Newly-Listed NYSE Stocks to Buy Now.
The IPO market has been rebuilding momentum. In its Market Outlook 2026, HarbourVest Partners wrote that “IPO activity has accelerated” and that “strong aftermarket performance suggests the window will remain open into 2026.” That second point matters more than the first. A burst of issuances can be fleeting, but sustained aftermarket strength tends to signal that stock market investors are not just participating in IPO deals but also remain engaged after stocks begin trading.
When newly listed companies hold their gains after listing, it changes the risk dynamics. Investors become more willing to underwrite growth stories earlier in their public life cycle, and companies that may have delayed offerings during tighter financial conditions may finally come to market. An open and functioning IPO window also creates a broader investable universe.
HarbourVest’s Market Outlook implies that a healthy IPO market is not just about deal volume. It reflects improving confidence in corporate fundamentals, liquidity conditions, and investor appetite for new equity risk. With issuance accelerating and performance holding up, newly listed stocks are in focus. In that context, we take a closer look at 11 Newly-Listed NYSE Stocks to Buy Now.

Number of Hedge Fund Holders as of Q3 2025: N/A
On February 19, 2026, Evercore ISI reduced its price target on Neptune Insurance Holdings Inc. (NYSE:NP) to $30 from $35 and maintained an Outperform rating.
That same day, Keefe Bruyette upgraded Neptune Insurance to Outperform from Market Perform with a $25 price target, lowered from $26, following the Q4 report. The firm said the upgrade is driven by valuation after the recent selloff tied to AI disruption concerns over the past two weeks. Keefe Bruyette expects upward estimate revisions and a recovery in the valuation multiple as the market comes to view Neptune “as a winner, regardless of whether AI actually reconfigures insurance distribution.”
Piper Sandler also cut its price target on February 19 to $30 from $33 while reiterating an Overweight rating after quarterly results. The firm pointed to lower peer multiples amid AI-related dislocation in insurance distribution platforms and highlighted a top-line driven beat with record sales, noting that NP benefited from the government shutdown.
On February 18, 2026, Neptune reported Q4 revenue of $43.8M compared with the consensus of $39.42M and Q4 adjusted EPS of 42c versus 31c last year.
