Maybe there’s not a new tech bubble, but at least one tech stock is back to its tech-bubble glory days.
Priceline.com shares jumped to more than $980 on Friday, on the verge of making the online travel company the first stock ever in the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index to be worth $1000.
That alone is kind of an amazing statistic, considering how many different companies have been in the S&P 500 since it began in 1957. Especially since one of those companies is Google. Also, Apple.
The other amazing thing about this feat is that it nearly completes a wild round-trip for the stock that began right after its IPO in March 1999.
The stock finished trading on its first day at $497.26. In just a month, it soared to $974, adjusted for splits and dividends.
