The market saw a fresh meme stock frenzy this week. While high exuberance can be a contrarian sell signal, sources say the market is still in good shape.
Despite the enthusiasm, Opendoor has significant financial troubles. The company's top line has plummeted from its height in 2022. The company's current annual run rate is well under a third of its 2022 sales. Opendoor has also never turned a profit and has significant negative cash flow.
Krispy Kreme (DNUT), Opendoor (OPEN), Rocket Mortgage (RKT) and Kohl’s (KSS) had become the meme stocks of the moment, along with a new moniker from traders — “DORK,” a reference to the first letters of their tickers.
The ticker $OPEN has been heavily cited on WallStreetBets, the online forum behind the infamous GameStop mania in 2021.
