Is OpenDoor a good stock to buy right now? Ricky from Techput Solutions shares three specific reasons he is not a fan of OpenDoor and why he doesn't think it's a good investment. OpenDoor went from 50 cents per share to highs of $10 per share in a very short period. The question is not whether you can make money trading OpenDoor—technically, you can make money trading anything with huge momentum spikes. The real question is whether it's a good investment or a pump and dump.
OpenDoor caught attention like GameStop and AMC. Ricky takes pride in warning beginners about higher risk plays, which come with greater risk not clearly expressed on platforms. There are cult-like followings behind companies like Beyond Meat, AMC, GameStop, Bed Bath & Beyond—they all end up selling off. They claim unique missions, but it's short-lived positive catalysts driving stocks up quickly. Early entrants make money by taking profits; beginners get sucked into FOMO, buying at overbought levels and losing 50% in five months. OpenDoor follows a similar trend.
OpenDoor is a company you can look up—do your own due diligence. The stock market allows everyone to decide. Be aware of how much money you can lose; OpenDoor has huge red flags.
First highlight: volume. Momentum plays need high volume, but when it peaks and fades, retracements follow. Volume spiked as price hit highs of $10 per share. Like GameStop and AMC—gimmicky companies previously failing, heavily shorted or seen as underdogs—people pump to squeeze shorts. Early entry makes money, but as volume fades, price action fades too. Fact: 50% retracement in 5 months from $10.70 highs to lows, after a 7.5% earnings push.
This doesn't mean it can't pump again on short-term catalysts, but it's not a good investment. It meets all criteria of a meme stock, like GameStop—peaked, volume spiked then faded, price followed. OpenDoor is not new; went public around 2010, peaked at $110 per share, making consistent lower lows and lower highs.
Valuation does not align with fundamentals. There's an underdog story with new management trimming fat (check Investing Pro, link in description). Company loses net income—$1.3 billion loss on $4.3 billion revenue, P/E ratio of negative 3.7 times earnings. Not growing fundamentally. Trading at 50 cents a few months ago for a reason; now 9-10x to $5 per share despite declining revenue year over year and a half. Revenue peaked post-pandemic but declined with real estate market.
OpenDoor is a proxy for real estate: hot when real estate is hot, not when it's not. Real estate not hot now, not expected in 2026 with one Fed rate cut projected. Revenue not growing, EPS not growing. Paying premium for assumptions about new management vs. actual performance. They're trimming fat, offloading poor inventory, leading to $1.3 billion 2025 loss.
New CEO Cass is likable, like GameStop's Mr. Cohen—people fixate on CEO desire before results. OpenDoor is a glorified house flipper valued as a tech stock with razor-thin margins. OpenDoor 2.0 incorporates AI, removes agents, offers 1-3 month home returns. Q4 2025: 1% net margins; target 5-7%, expect profitable by end of 2026. Nothing unique that others can't replicate. Comparing Cass to Elon Musk is weak—no one else is Elon Musk.
To hit $82 per share needs massive scale. 2025: 11,791 homes sold, $1.3 billion net loss = ~$110,000 loss per home. High-risk Hail Mary bet to reach positive adjusted net income by end 2026. Industry competitive, saturated, thin margins; conditions not favorable with non-booming real estate in 2026-2027.
Hope Cass turns it around, but risk too high for Ricky's style. Bagholders down 50% encouraging beginners to buy with leverage is manipulation, not conviction—shows incompetence in risk management. Even 10-20% profit after recovery doesn't erase 50% loss; one bad trade away from wipeout. Understand risk-to-reward.
Do not use leverage on speculative assets—risk margin calls, liquidation. Ricky trades live mornings with LPP team for beginners (link in description), focuses on quality companies or shorting overvalued ones. OpenDoor overbought with hype, risky to short. Appreciates time, hopes for thumbs up and subscribe.
