Shares in SoftBank's Arm Holdings (ARM.O) opened 18% above their offer price in their Nasdaq debut on Thursday, valuing the British chip designer at nearly $60 billion in its return to the public markets after seven years.
"I have every reason to believe that when ARM options are listed they will be very popular," said Steve Sosnick, chief strategist at Interactive Brokers.
Arm shares were last up 15.80% at $59.06.
