SoftBank Group Corp shares surged 11% after the investment conglomerate scored a $11.2 billion gain in the value of its stake in DoorDash Inc following the U.S. food delivery app's blockbuster stock market debut.

NEW YORK/TOKYO - SoftBank Group Corp shares surged 11% after the investment conglomerate scored a $11.2 billion gain in the value of its stake in DoorDash Inc following the U.S. food delivery app’s blockbuster stock market debut.

SoftBank’s shares climbed as much as 19% in Tokyo trading and closed at new two-decade highs at 8,306 yen. The group’s growing market capitalisation, which neared $170 billion on Thursday, raises the costs of management buyout proposals, which have been debated internally but face considerable opposition.

SoftBank’s recent wins include a rally in the shares of ride-hailing app Uber Technologies Inc, where it is a top shareholder, and the sale of chip designer Arm to Nvidia Corp for $40 billion.
