On June 10, Opendoor Technologies rose 8.29% in regular trading, trading at $4.69/share, with trading volume of $36.676 million.
On the news front, the rally was driven by the company's previously announced inclusion in the Russell 3000 Index, as part of the annual Russell Index reconstitution. The change is scheduled to take effect after market close on June 26. The company stated that inclusion in the Russell 3000 Index typically means simultaneous inclusion in either the large-cap Russell 1000 Index or the small-cap Russell 2000 Index, as well as related growth and value style indexes.
Index inclusion generally triggers buying demand from passive funds such as index-tracking ETFs, providing sustained support for the stock price. This catalyst, first disclosed in late May, has repeatedly pushed the stock higher. As the June 26 effective date approaches, market buying expectations have further intensified, fueling today's sharp intraday gain.
