Investors rallied behind a campaign by Eric Jackson—who owns a significant stake in the company—to bring back Keith Rabois to the board, believing that his bold, aggressive, and visionary, would support the company’s turnaround and revival.

Rabois’ business strategy compared with Opendoor Technologies Inc.’s (NASDAQ:OPEN) former CEO, Carrie Wheeler, who was more cautious and reactive.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Jackson said he believed the company could propel to as high as $82, $200, and even $500, but that the current board “will be long gone by then.”

Further spurring sentiment were high expectations of a lower interest rate at the Federal Reserve’s next FOMC meeting.

Opendoor Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN), a real estate technology company that resells residential properties, is expected to benefit from the move on lower borrowing costs for prospective homebuyers.
