October's increase came as investors became more bullish about Pegasystems' global growth trends. Sales gains had rebounded in the second quarter, and management was predicting further gains to come in the second half of fiscal 2019. Shareholders were hoping to hear more encouraging news when Pegasystems reported its Q3 results just a few days into November.
