The shares of Opendoor Technologies (OPEN) are experiencing a significant drop, with a decrease of approximately 20.1% as of 1:15 p.m. ET. Contrastingly, at the same time during trading, the S&P 500 index was climbing by 0.4%, and the Nasdaq Composite index was inching up by 0.1%.
Opendoor Technologies has been popularly known as a meme stock lately, experiencing significant increases in its valuation. However, today the company’s share price is retreating due to investors cashing out their recent profits. Despite substantial sell-offs happening today, the stock has still managed to soar by 330% over the last month.
Opendoor stock sinks as meme rally loses steam
After hedge fund manager Eric Jackson advocated for Opendoor as a promising comeback investment, the stock became a popular topic on social media and meme-stocks. Despite a recent surge in its share price, Opendoor’s value has dropped approximately 81% over the past year of trading.
Recently, there has been a resurgence in speculative trading of meme-stocks, where some investors believe that lower interest rates and market catalysts could lead to significant rallies for companies with undervalued stocks. The success of meme stock investments, such as Opendoor, has been notable, but today’s sharp decline in the company’s share price serves as a reminder of the high risk and potential for substantial downside volatility associated with these types of trades at this point.
What’s next for Opendoor Technologies?
In simple terms, it’s expected that Opendoor Technologies’ stock will remain quite unpredictable in the coming days. Although the company’s core business hasn’t significantly altered since its meme-stock surge, the release of their second-quarter earnings report after market close on Aug. 5 will provide a clear picture of their operations. The company might choose to cash in on its stock increase by selling shares, thereby improving their financial stability, but this could potentially dilute the stock and disappoint investors aiming for quick profits.
