2. Opendoor Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN)

Opendoor Technologies snapped a four-day losing streak on Wednesday, jumping 16.24 percent to end at $8.23 apiece, as investors mirrored an investment firm’s acquisition of a significant stake in the company.

Trading firm Jane Street said in a regulatory filing that it acquired 44 million shares in Opendoor Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN), representing a 5.9 percent stake in the company. It clarified, however, that there were no activist plans in relation to the purchase.

Earlier this month, Opendoor Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN) announced leadership changes, with the return of its two founders, Eric Wu and Keith Rabois, and the naming of Kaz Nejatian as its new chief executive officer (CEO), to support the company’s turnaround and revival from losses.

The leadership reshuffle followed the resignation of former CEO Carrie Wheeler, after mounting calls from the investing community for the return of its founders.
