$Figma(FIG)$ 🔥🎭📊 Figma’s $2B Valuation Heist: When Wall Street Underpriced, Then Overdelivered (for Itself) 🧮💰🎨

I’m extremely confident this was the most cunning bait-and-switch we’ve seen from Wall Street all year.

$FIG exploded over 250% intraday on debut, closing at $122.75 (+5.63%) after an early vertical rally left retail breathless and brokers euphoric. That pop alone outperformed a full decade of S&P 500 returns in just four hours.

But peel back the price action and what you’ll find isn’t just exuberance; it’s architecture. This wasn’t a rally, it was a redistribution mechanism dressed up in a confetti cannon.

🧾 IPO Mechanics: How Figma Got Finessed

• 36M shares were sold at $33/share, raising $1.2B.

• 24M came from early investors, 12M from insiders.

• But the IPO opened around $100. Wall Street pocketed the $67 spread, roughly $2B in instant markup, with none of that upside going to Figma.

Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan led the underwriting, telling Figma, “Here’s your valuation.” But if the market bid it up 3x instantly, then that valuation was either criminally lazy or cleverly strategic. I’d argue the latter.

That’s why this was never about fair price discovery; it was engineered demand displacement. Figma raised $1.2B. They could’ve raised $3.6B if they’d simply been allowed to capture the value of their own hype.

📸 Enter: The Retail “Investors”

As $FIG mania spread like a wildfire across X and FinTok, a wave of first-time investors rushed in with Robinhood apps and a dream. Many literally bought just one share because that’s all they could afford. In a Shakespearean twist, the only thing poorer than the average allocation was the timing.

Let’s be honest. Most weren’t investors, they were cast members in a liquidity exit.

Robin Hood stole from the rich to give to the poor. Wall Street’s remake? They sold to the poor to enrich the rich. Call it “RobinHood: The Exit Liquidity Chronicles.”

📊 Valuation in Context:

At close, Figma’s market cap hit $56.3B, placing it just over one-third of Adobe’s $151.7B. Adobe’s a mature profit machine. Figma is a brilliant product with zero monetization clarity and no profitability timeline. That $56B valuation was priced for perfection, and retail paid for the fantasy.

📈 Technicals That Matter:

• On the 4H chart, Figma tagged near-$156 highs before reversing into a consolidation chop.

• The 15M chart shows a clean bull trap followed by a waterfall fade and retracement.

• Support levels: $114.70–116.30 (mid-zone balance), then $109.00.

• Overhead resistance: $133.50, followed by IPO high wicks near $156.25.

• Anchored AVWAP from IPO session sits near $122.75, currently acting as price magnet.

📌 Forward-Looking Price Scenarios with Fibonacci Framework:

Anchoring Fibonacci levels from the IPO day low of $96.00 to the high of $156.25, we get:

• 23.6% retracement: $141.01

• 38.2% retracement: $131.58

• 50.0% retracement: $126.13

• 61.8% retracement: $120.67

• 78.6% retracement: $112.16

From here, I’m preparing for a three-path outcome based on volatility compression, float dynamics, and Fibonacci alignment:

• Bullish breakout scenario: If $133.50 breaks with volume and holds above $137.40, I’m targeting $147.80, then $156.25 to retest the IPO day high.

• Neutral chop scenario: Between $120.67 (61.8%) and $133.50, I expect short-term consolidation as early institutions exit and retail digests the volatility.

• Bearish continuation scenario: A confirmed break below $120.67 opens risk to $112.16 (78.6%), then $103.40, where pre-IPO AVWAP and psychological round number support converge.

These Fibonacci zones represent real liquidity pockets, not just chart art. Every level here was printed on high-volume rotations within the first 48 hours of trading.

These are not predictions; they’re probability-weighted frameworks for a stock still writing its own history.

💼 Institutional Reality Check:

Funds that got the $33 print are up nearly 4x. They’re trimming, rotating, or hedging. Meanwhile, the public crowd, many of whom posted screenshots of owning “just one share,” are left holding bags that were never meant for them.

This IPO wasn’t just a mispricing; it was a transfer of upside masked as innovation.

📌 The Takeaway:

I’m bullish on Figma’s product. But I’m cynical about how this IPO was structured.

It wasn’t about capital formation, it was about capital extraction.

Wall Street didn’t help Figma go public; they helped themselves to its valuation.
