Snowflake isn't the only buzzy upstart to cash in on investors' enthusiasm for new software companies.

The latest: Unity Software, which makes programs for video game designers, priced its IPO at $52 per share on Thursday. The public offering will raise at least $1.3 billion. Just last week, the company said it expected to price shares between $34 and $42.Big picture: Snowflake made a splash earlier this week when it priced its initial public offering at $120 a share — well above the expected range of $100 to $110. Shares skyrocketed 112% on their first trading.

What's happening: US regulators have tentatively agreed to a deal with the video app's Chinese parent company, ByteDance, and its potential American partner, Oracle, a person familiar with the matter told CNN Business.

Scoreboard: The chain grew sales at stores open for at least one year by 24% to $3.9 billion during its latest quarter, faster than growth reported by Costco and Walmart-owned Sam's Club in the same period, my CNN Business colleague Nathaniel Meyersohn reports. BJ's said its"digitally enabled sales" — including same-day delivery through Instacart and curbside pickup — grew by more than 300%.
