I knew that sounded familiar.How do we feel about this company. Van I shot this your way the other day for comment...
From a year ago...
They ($SNX) spun off a division and made it a separate, independent company. $CNXC
"Under the terms of the separation, on December 1, 2020, stockholders who held SYNNEX common stock at the close of business on November 17, 2020—the Record Date—received a distribution of one Concentrix common share for every share of SYNNEX common stock held. No fractional shares of Concentrix were distributed."
CNXC =$101.21
SNX=$80.94
So basically your original share of SNX ($160ish) is now worth $182.15
Obviously Wall Street liked the idea, look at the chart of Cocentrix.

This oftentimes happens.
It would be like owning one share of Amazon and them coming out one day and saying they are spinning of Amazon Web Services.
They say.... "we are spinning off AWS and as of (some date) for every one share of Amazon you own, you will now also own 3 shares of AWS.
Come that date, say AMZN is at $4000, it would drop to $1000 and the new AWS shares would each be worth $1000. You have 1 AMZN share and 3 AWS shares. So $4000 total. Even Steven.
Thing is, oftentimes the new company as an independent operation, if its a good company, the stock of that company takes off.
You'll hear the phrase "unlocking value".... this is what it means. When the parts of a company are worth more independently.
This is exactly what happened in your example.
Cocentrix took off from $80 to $101 because Wall Street obviously thinks its worth more than $80.
