Shares of technology real estate company Opendoor (NASDAQ:OPEN)
jumped 21.5% in the afternoon session after the company's leadership transition continued to fuel investor optimism. The move extends a rally from the previous week, which began after the company announced CEO Carrie Wheeler would step down. This leadership change has sparked investor optimism for a strategic turnaround. Shrisha Radhakrishna, the Chief Technical and Product Officer, has been appointed as the interim leader while the board searches for a permanent replacement.
Adding to the momentum, Opendoor has been identified as a "meme stock," attracting traders partly due to its high short interest, estimated at around 23%. This interest, often amplified on social media, has contributed to the stock's significant recent gains as investors bet on the company's new direction under fresh leadership.
Shares of internet service provider Cogent Communications (NASDAQ:CCOI) jumped 8.1% in the afternoon session after it received a double upgrade from Wells Fargo, which cited a favorable risk/reward outlook.
Shares of digital insurance provider Lemonade (NYSE:LMND) jumped 4.8% in the afternoon session after BMO Capital significantly raised its price target on the stock. The move was primarily driven by BMO Capital, which nearly doubled its price target on the stock to $42.00 from $23.00. BMO noted that Lemonade's growth may require less capital than its peers due to its rating agency situation, which provides the company with greater financial flexibility. Despite the significant target increase, BMO maintained its "Underperform" rating, cautioning that the current stock price seems to reflect a "best-case scenario."
Shares of solar tracker company Nextracker (NASDAQ:NXT)
jumped 10.7% in the afternoon session after an upgrade from Guggenheim to 'Buy' from 'Neutral,' citing favorable new guidance from the IRS on clean-energy tax credits. The investment bank set a $74 price target on the stock, representing about 22% upside from its prior close. The upgrade was driven by new guidance from the U.S. Treasury and IRS regarding clean-energy tax incentives. Specifically, updated "safe-harbor" rules now clarify that racking installation—a core part of Nextracker's business—qualifies as physical work for tax credit purposes. Analysts at Guggenheim view this as a significant positive development for solar tracker suppliers. The news was well-received by the market, sending Nextracker shares to an all-time high and lifting other solar stocks as the guidance was seen as broadly better than feared.
