gizmodo.com Bruce Gil 2026-01-04 17:30:57

About three weeks ago, Jackson’s firm, EMJ Capital, bought shares of Opendoor Technologies, a San Francisco–based company that buys and sells homes online, at around $0.70 apiece. Since then, the company’s share price has skyrocketed over 600% to an intraday high of almost $5 on July 21. Today, it’s trading at about $2.40, still a roughly 250% gai
