P.M. Edition for Sept. 12. After Figma, Circle and Bullish were plagued by big price jumps on their recent first trading days, companies making their stock market debuts this week have opted for a new strategy: creating bigger share allotments for retail investors. WSJ capital markets reporter Corrie Driebusch discusses how it works. Plus, America’s soy farmers are beginning to harvest the tens of millions of tons of crop expected for this season, but China, the world’s biggest buyer of soy, doesn’t want any. We hear from Patrick Thomas, who covers agriculture for the Journal, about why, and what that means for farmers. And authorities have taken into custody 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who is suspected of the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Alex Ossola hosts.
