The Pointsbet Holdings Ltd (ASX: PBH) share price is currently up by more than 5%.
While that's a substantial rise in just one session, it's still down by more than 13% over the past month, so it's recovering some of the lost ground.
The gains come as other businesses which are known for growth are also in the green. For example, the Xero Limited (ASX: XR) share price is up more than 1%, the REA Group Limited (ASX: REA) share price is up 2.7% and the Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS) share price is up 5%.
The company gave an update on its global leadership team earlier this week.
