September SPAC Merger Calendar: A Look At Upcoming Votes And Stocks To Watch

The month of September marks a slow down in deal votes after recent months but still offers up several well-known companies that will go public if their SPAC merger votes are approved.

SPAC merger votes can act as a catalyst as it completes the last step in the merger process and also changes the company over to a new name and ticker that can help build recognition.

Several former SPACs have also seen wide swings in their share price after being de-SPACed if they receive heavy redemption and have a low float for shares available.

Here is a look at the current September SPAC merger vote dates:
