Shares of Opendoor Technologies Inc (OPEN) soared 15.28% in pre-market trading on Thursday, rebounding sharply after a 20% plunge in the previous session. This volatile price action continues the recent trend for the real estate technology company, which has become the latest darling of retail traders in a resurgence of meme stock mania.
Opendoor's stock has been on a rollercoaster ride in recent weeks, with social media hype and options activity driving extreme price swings. The company's shares have skyrocketed over 400% this month alone, despite no significant changes in its underlying business fundamentals. This surge has attracted a growing crowd of retail investors, many of whom gather on platforms like Reddit's WallStreetBets to share trading ideas and rally support for their favored stocks.
The renewed interest in Opendoor and other speculative stocks comes as overall market sentiment remains bullish, with major indices near record highs. However, analysts warn that such rapid, sentiment-driven price movements carry significant risks for investors. As the meme stock phenomenon continues to evolve, market participants will be closely watching to see if Opendoor can maintain its momentum or if the bubble will eventually burst.
