Additionally, business monitoring and analytics company Datadog Inc, bumped up its proposed IPO range ahead of its Wednesday night pricing.

The company said it now plans to offer 24 million shares at a price between $24 and $26 per share, up from its prior estimate between $19 and $22, according to a report from broker Renaissance Capital. That could net the company $600 million, compared to its original expectations of $492 million.

Elsewhere, the owner of WeWork opted to postpone its IPO on Tuesday, less than a week before the company was expected to go public. It’s been a rocky ride for the The We Company, which cut its market valuation to between $10 billion and $12 billion from the $47 billion it calculated in January.
