Opendoor's Weekly Rally Fails to Gain Momentum
In a positive development for Opendoor Technologies, the online real estate platform has regained compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement and has cancelled the proposed reverse stock split, following a series of events that had been unfolding since May.
The company's shares, which soared earlier this month, have been trading above $1 since August 1, 2025, maintaining a closing price above the required minimum for 12 consecutive business days. This achievement has allowed Opendoor to avoid the necessity for a reverse stock split, a move often seen as a last-ditch effort from a company to stay relevant in the market.
However, the rally for Opendoor's stock has experienced a slight fade this week, with the trading volume returning to pre-meme stock levels. This decline by about 40% since its peak in July has been accompanied by a period of little news about the stock.
Looking ahead, Opendoor is set to report its second-quarter earnings on Aug. 5. Analysts are predicting a modest improvement in the loss per share, with a call for a loss of $0.02, compared to $0.04 in the same quarter last year. The revenue is expected to remain flat at $1.5 billion.
The adjournment and subsequent cancellation of the special meeting for a reverse stock split reflect a positive development rather than a risk to the rally. The meeting, originally scheduled for July 28, 2025, was first adjourned to August 27, 2025, to allow more time to assess market conditions.
Despite the new investor interest, the stock's inability to push higher may be attributed to investors who bought Opendoor for less than $1 early in the rally cashing in their winnings.
With the immediate threat of delisting due to low stock price and the necessity for a reverse split removed, Opendoor's stock rally can continue unhindered, offering potential opportunities for investors.
