Securitize Corp. (NYSE:SECZ) soared to a fresh all-time high on Monday, primarily after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) green-lit the trading of tokenized securities.
In intra-day trading, the stock jumped to its highest price of $13.93 before paring gains to finish the session just up by 24.31 percent at $13.50 apiece.
Tokenized Securities
In its approval last Thursday, the SEC granted temporary, conditional exemptive relief for certain trading platforms to issue tokenized representations of publicly traded US stocks effective immediately.
Under the rules, certain trading platforms and liquidity providers will have regulatory relief to facilitate tokenized stock trading, provided that they meet certain conditions, including retained rights for stock token holders similar to traditional stockholders, and that companies must be able to object to having their securities represented as tokens.

The tokenization followed the Senate’s blocking of the Clarity Act, which was designed to create a clear regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and digital assets.
Securitize Corp.—one of the leading companies in tokenizing real-world assets—is among the listed firms most directly positioned to benefit from the tokenization, thanks to its infrastructure that allows financial assets to be issued, traded, and managed on blockchain rails.
Buy Reco, Price Target Upgrades
Investment firms Cantor Fitzgerald and Rosenblatt turned bullish on Securitize Corp. following the news.
Cantor issued a buy recommendation for the stock and raised its price target to $21.2, marking a 57 percent upside potential from its latest closing price.
Rosenblatt, for its part, recommended investors buy its shares while conservatively raising its price target to $13 from $11 previously, citing the SEC’s new Innovation Exemption as a significant catalyst for the company, which removed the largest regulatory obstacle to on-chain trading in US equities.
Rosenblatt noted additional potential upside for Securitize Corp., such as the SEC’s recent proposal to modernize rules on transfer agents. It said that it was confident of the listed firm’s ability to execute on its leadership position and monetize the opportunity.
Securitize Corp. is a newly listed company, having debuted on the New York Stock Exchange only on July 2, 2026.
In the second quarter of the year, the company widened its net loss by 253 percent to $21.69 million from $6.15 million in the same period last year. Revenues dropped by 5 percent to $14.4 million from $15.3 million year-on-year.
