Beyond Meat's IPO leads to a rare 2000-style stock surge
Beyond Meat Inc.’s first day of trading after its initial public offering brought the kind of stock surge that has been relatively rare since 2000, the year that an Internet-driven bull market ended. The producer of vegan beef and sausage substitutes soared 163 percent in its debut. Beyond Meat is only the eighth U.S. company in the past 18 years to climb at least 125 percent after completing an initial public offering of $100 million or more, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The rest are shown in the chart. There were 29 in 2000 alone.

Cloud-based software company Castlight Health (CSLT) began trading on the NYSE on 14 March 2014
Castlight Health's shares jumped 139% in their first day of trading as investors snapped up shares of the health-care software company.
The stock, which is trading on the New York Stock Exchange by the symbol CSLT, rose $22.39, or 139%, to $38.39 from the initial price of $16. The warm reception shows just how strong demand for the shares is, since the initial price was already increased above the expected range of between $13 and $15 a share.
Following the offering, Castlight raised $178 million by selling 11.1 million shares. When the company first filed plans for its IPO, it intended to sell 11.1 million shares between $9 and $11 a share.
Castlight makes software that helps companies and other employers control healthcare costs. It's the latest in what's expected to be a rash of six software-related deals this next week.
Following Castlight, other upcoming software IPOs include payroll software company Paylocity, employee incentive software maker Globoforce, online banking software company Q2 Holdings, network software company A10 Networks and global trading software makers Amber Road and Borderfree, says Renaissance Capital.
