These High-Tech IPOs Are Fueling the Nasdaq Rally

From the depths of the 2009 bottom, the Nasdaq is up 139%, hitting levels it hasn’t seen in more than 10 years.

In the last three months alone, the bellwether index is up nearly 19% — outpacing the 12% gain in the S&P 500.

But here’s the thing: It’s not all about Apple.

The high-tech IPO market is practically on fire. One of them is Jive Software (NASDAQ: JIVE).

Since Jive debuted last December, shares have jumped 25% from the offering price on the first day.

Since then, the stock has done nothing but power ahead. At the close of trading Thursday, Jive had nearly doubled in less than four months!
