Monitor for the initial business combination announcement, which is the primary catalyst for SPACs. Keystone's trust per-share value (~$10.025) provides a floor for trading. The wide sector focus (energy transition, shipbuilding, semiconductors, digital assets) leaves deal prospects uncertain. Watch for filings indicating a target letter of intent or definitive agreement.
