  • Opendoor shares climbed 72% this week to $3.37 on heavy volume Friday, fueled by renewed retail investor interest and crypto investor Anthony Pompliano praising retail investors as a powerful force, saying 'Power to the people.'
  • The leadership change and growing investor enthusiasm suggest Opendoor aims to solidify its strategic turnaround and build long-term value amid a challenging real estate market.
