IPO launched out of the gate with an initial trade of $52 a share, reports [url=http://news.com.com/8301-10784_3-9759545-7.html?part=rss&subj=news&tag=2547-1_3-0-5]CNET[/url]. VMware investors who snapped up shares at $29 a pop as part of the IPO offering reaped a profit of 79 percent on that first trade.
"VMware is poised to be the No. 1 first-day gainer for the year," Richard Peterson, director of capital markets research for Thomson Financial, told CNET. "And although it was anticipated to be well-received, it came out on a day when the overall markets are down by 150 points, making its debut all the more impressive."
