This year has seen a number of tech giants like Snap, Cloudera, and Roku, make the jump into public markets. Meanwhile, one lesser-known company, Alteryx, which made its IPO in March, is quietly raking in the gains. Dean Stoecker, CEO of Alteryx, an analytics platform for enterprises, joined Cheddar to explain what’s clicking for his company.
The company's stock is up significantly from its IPO price of $14 a share. Stoecker explains how Alteryx's uncoventional path to IPO set the analytics company up for a strong start. He says raising money is a weakness, not a strength. That's why it took him 14 years to take in investments, and 20 years to move into the public spotlight.
Stoecker says Alteryx is bringing the thrill back to analytics. The company has a giant list of customers, including Walmart and Boeing. The CEO breaks down how Alteryx is looking to change the way these companies interpret data.

A new poll finds U.S. adults are more likely than they were a year ago to think immigrants in the country legally benefit the economy. That comes as President Donald Trump's administration imposes new restrictions targeting legal pathways into the country. The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey finds Americans are more likely than they were in March 2024 to say it’s a “major benefit” that people who come to the U.S. legally contribute to the economy and help American companies get the expertise of skilled workers. At the same time, perceptions of illegal immigration haven’t shifted meaningfully. Americans still see fewer benefits from people who come to the U.S. illegally.
