Leadership Shake-Up Drives Momentum

CEO Carrie Wheeler of the San Francisco-based company, stepped down immediately last week amid mounting pressure from activist investor Eric Jackson, who has led retail advocacy for strategic changes. Chief Technology and Product Officer Shrisha Radhakrishna was appointed interim CEO while the board conducts a formal search with Spencer Stuart.

The leadership transition sparked endorsements from high-profile investors including Anthony Pompliano, who disclosed a stake calling the move “a win for retail investors,” and hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones.

Retail Investor Activism Reshapes Strategy

Jackson and Pompliano have positioned retail investors as a “decentralized hedge fund” driving corporate governance changes. The coordinated effort includes hundreds of product suggestions submitted to Opendoor executives and identification of potential merger opportunities.

The online marketplace trades with a $2.66 billion market capitalization and 329.79 million average daily volume. With a 52-week range of $0.51-$4.97, current levels suggest consolidation after the dramatic rally that delivered 127% year-to-date gains through Tuesday’s close.

Technical Indicators Signal Bullish Momentum

Despite Tuesday’s decline, OPEN maintains strong technical positioning. The stock recently formed a “Golden Cross” pattern, where the 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day average—a traditional bullish signal for institutional traders.
