Three small deals are scheduled for the week ahead, two of which are hold-overs from last week.
We expect IPO activity to remain muted until late February, driven by a combination of the upcoming President's Day holiday and companies getting in full 2017 numbers. New filing activity in the coming weeks will indicate whether current market conditions have impacted the anticipated pick-up in late February and early March.
