Universe = active redeemable SPACs with a valid or thin NBBO ask, trust per share, and a future deadline. YTM = (trust/ask)^(365/days)−1; |YTM| > 200% quarantined. Spread from delayed-SIP NBBO. Trust capital = sum of trust_size per bucket. Cash-return schedule shows trust deadlines by month — the dates at which holders can redeem at trust or the SPAC must liquidate.

Cumulative reach: each stage counts SPACs that ever reached at least that milestone (a closed deSPAC also counts under Announced and Voted). Stages are weighted by announced ev; each SPAC contributes its announced EV and rows without one are excluded (see per-stage coverage), not counted as $0. Membership maps from current status values enriched by vote / EV evidence; it migrates to canonical lifecycle states once #16 lands. Conversion rates render “—” where a stage is unmeasurable under the active weight.

Rate = extracted public-share redemption rate (vote-level). Median / averages are computed only over votes that carry a rate — see the per-group coverage; low coverage means the statistic reflects a small sample, not the whole market. Σ Redeemed is a distinct, typically smaller population (votes with an extracted dollar amount). Blank cells read Unknown, not zero. Share-weighted averaging is gated on public-share normalization (#653/#654) and is not fabricated in the interim.

Forward market catalysts within 365 days, sourced from spac_event_dates and universe — the same primary tables behind the calendar. Each date derives from a DB column; none are fabricated. Filed = the date carries a filing source; Est. = a modelled/estimated date, not filing-confirmed. Terminal SPACs are excluded. Symbols link to the SPAC page.

Counterparty Leaderboards

as of 2026-09-06
Ranked by SPACs advised. Every metric is bottom-up from the same filings the entity-profile pages read — blank cells read Unknown, never zero. Each rate carries its sample size (n) so thin entities are obvious. Only entities with a real IPO count are ranked.

Showing the top 25 of 34 rankable sponsor groups (≥2 SPACs advised); 487 tracked overall, single-SPAC entities excluded from ranking. Completion = closed ÷ (closed + liquidated), among resolved SPACs only. Liquidation = liquidated ÷ all associated SPACs. TTA = median IPO→announcement gap. Redemption = median extracted public-share redemption rate; only 91 SPACs carry a rate, so most entities read Unknown. Post-Close = median last price vs the $10 trust reference for closed deSPACs; price coverage is thin (8 tickers), so this column is Unknown for nearly all entities — by design, not zero.

Cohort & Survival

time-to-event by IPO-year cohort · as of 2026-09-06
Each duration is a real day-count between two DB dates on the same SPAC. Curves show the share of a cohort that has reached each event by month since IPO — a survival view of whether the current cohort is closing faster or slower than prior cycles. Young cohorts are right-censored: most members have not had the event yet, so their medians reflect only the earliest movers and read low.
