'I'm not here to pump up a stock': The hedge funder who sparked a speculative frenzy says he's not playing the meme stock game
Opendoor isn't a meme stock, says the hedge funder whose thesis sparked a huge rally in the shares. Eric Jackson, known for his call on Carvana in 2023, thinks Opendoor can rally more than 3,000%. He says Opendoor shouldn't be lumped together with other meme stocks that surged this week. The architect of the latest meme stock rally doesn't want you to call him that. Eric Jackson, the founder of EMJ Capital, is bullish on Opendoor—the online real estate platform that embarked on a blistering rally after he posted his thesis on X—but it isn't a meme stock, he says. In his eyes, it's the real deal, a pandemic-era darling with big turnaround potential despite a 92% tumble since its peak. Jackson is known for what ended up being a correctly bullish call on Carvana in 2023. He laid out his views on Opendoor on social media on July 14, sparking not only a rapid rise in the stock, which also seems to have revived the meme stock trade among a newer group of unloved stocks, including Kohl's, Krispy Kreme, and GoPro. But for Jackson, Opendoor isn't a joke. He declined to disclose the value of his firm's stake, but it's now the single biggest position in EMJ Capital's portfolio, he told Business Insider. "I never thought of it that way," he said of investors who called Opendoor a meme stock. "So I sort of take offense, because I find all the meme stocks to be, to me, kind of terrible businesses that I would never want to own. Whereas I see Opendoor as a legitimate turnaround story." Opendoor will probably be the only company among the meme-stock cohort that won't be forgotten about by next week, he said, adding that he sees the latest speculative buying spree fizzling out. Indeed, most of this week's meme stock cohort was already giving up their biggest gains by midday on Friday. Opendoor's stock price spiked as high as $4.97 this week in intraday trading, an almost 830% increase in July. The stock has since pared its gains, trading around $2.46 a share on Friday, but Jackson still thinks shares could hit $82 within the next several years, a gain that would mark a 3,200% increase from current levels. The next leg-up for the stock could come in the next few weeks when the company reports third-quarter earnings, Jackson said. 'I'm not here to pump up a stock' Opendoor first appeared on Jackson's radar in 2022, around the time he started paying attention to Carvana. In a podcast called "The Compound and Friends," he said he believed both companies, which were struggling at the time, could stage a massive turnaround. His bet on Carvana paid off. Shares of the online used car retailer have risen almost 7,000% since the beginning of 2023. The bet on Opendoor — until now — did not. The stock traded between $1-$3 a share around the time Jackson finally gave up on the call and cashed out his shares nine months ago. "It's like having a painful ex in your history and you just don't want to look at their Instagram page or something like that, because it just brings up bad feelings," he said. Jackson thinks the story could be different this time around for a few reasons: Opendoor stock now looks similar to Carvana when Jackson first made his call on the used car seller. Opendoor shares were trading under $1 around the time he fired off a series of posts about the company on X. Opendoor has aggressively slashed its costs in recent years. In 2024, it cut its workforce by 17%. The firm doesn't have much competition in the iBuying space now that Zillow and Redfin have exited that business. Opendoor was likely "thrown for a loop" by the Fed keeping interest rates higher for longer than expected in 2022 and 2023, Jackson said. High borrowing costs significantly impact the real estate sector, but most investors expect the central bank to cut rates several more times this year, potentially stimulating fresh activity in the housing market. Opendoor might also be able to benefit from a big AI play, Jackson told BI, citing conversations with a former company insider. Jackson says what he sees going for Opendoor sets it apart from the meme stocks at the center of this week's euphoric rally. "Does Kohl's have an AI strategy? Does American Eagle, other than hiring Sydney Sweeney, have an AI strategy? I mean, GoPro — I mean, come on," he said of the other meme stocks in the spotlight. On social media, Jackson frequently tells his followers he's on the quest to find the next "100-bagger," a term coined by the investor Chris Mayer to describe an investment that has the potential to return 100 times its value over the long run. Jackson's firm, which has also started leaning on AI models to identify stocks with glimmers of potential, tries to look for three things, he said: Have other people given up on the stock? Does it look substantially mispriced? Does it look like it has a sustainable turnaround trajectory? If the answers are "yes," it could be a winning trade, though he acknowledges the approach isn't an exact science. Successful investments Jackson has made that he deems as 100-baggers include Alibaba, Microsoft, Coinbase, and Roku, he said in a post on X in June. The Opendoor call, in particular, has garnered him a lot of attention. Speaking to Bloomberg, Jackson said his firm had received 600 calls or emails from people inquiring about his fund and investment ideas in the last several weeks. Since posting the Opendoor thread on X, he told BI he's spoken with investors all over Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America who buy into his call, but he has also come across "a lot of negative stuff" on X about his thesis. "I guess it comes with the territory when you stick your neck out there as a real person with real thoughts. You get all these anonymous trolls chirping back at you," he said. "I really hope that if all of retail and all institutional investors truly believe in this $82 story, my hope is they zero in with like, the Death Star on this planet, and just buy and hold," he said, adding that he believed investors could stage a rally similar to Cisco's meteoric rise during the dot-com bubble. Importantly, he emphasized that he's not a fan of people saying he sparked the meme stock rally. "But I'm some grifter or flipper, no. I'm in this for the long run. I'm not here to pump up a stock and jump out of it. I've never done that." Read the original article on Business Insider

Ceva Logistics restructures North America operations, names new chief
Supply chain services giant Ceva Logistics has appointed Yves Laforgue, who joined the company last year through the acquisition of France-based Bolloré Logistics, as its new North America coordinator to better align regional operations with management's vision, according to an internal communication. CEO Mathieu Friedberg told employees in a memo on Friday that he is restructuring the North American organization, with Laforgue in charge, so it can capitalize on upcoming investments by parent company CMA CGM Group, and improve profit margins as it works to integrate Bolloré Logistics into its sprawling organization. Laforgue will continue his duties as CEO for Ceva Logistics Air & Ocean North America in addition to holding the new role. Ocean shipping giant CMA CGM, which acquired Ceva Logistics in 2019 and bought Bolloré Logistics in February 2024 for $5.2 billion as part of its transformation into a vertically integrated logistics services provider, announced in March that it would invest $20 billion over four years in U.S. ocean, air cargo and warehousing operations. Ceva Logistics is now the fifth largest global logistics service provider by gross revenue. 'In anticipation of these investments and to ensure that we are delivering on our three critical areas for success in 2025 — profitable growth, modernization and efficiency, and people — I have decided to reposition our NORTAM organizational structure and processes to enable greater efficiency, agility and cohesion,' Friedberg said in the message, which was obtained by FreightWaves. A Ceva employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid potential job retaliation, described operations on the ground as 'dysfunctional.' 'In his new role, Yves will focus on aligning and coordinating regional initiatives that span our products and functions. In addition, he will represent the company in front of public authorities and support our customers globally. His mandate is to simplify governance, accelerate decision making and make Ceva more agile and more responsive to the needs of our customers and our NORTAM teams on the ground,' Friedberg told staff members. 'We will accelerate in North America and need to create the right momentum and governance as close to the ground as possible. Alison Jahn, head of marketing and communications for Ceva North America, declined to comment on the organizational changes. Laforgue spent 30 years as an executive at Bolloré Logistics, including most recently as CEO of the Americas. Ceva has spent the past 18-months integrating Bolloré under its brand. Bolloré, which operated in 148 countries and employed 15,000 people, was a major air and ocean freight management company with additional capabilities in contract logistics, multimodal transportation, and e-commerce logistics. Ceva Logistics has continued to grow this decade through CMA CGM acquisitions of French automobile logistics provider GEFCO, Ingram Micro's e-commerce and lifestyle services business, and French last-mile delivery company Colis Privé Group. CMA CGM also launched its own all-cargo airline three years ago. Click here for more FreightWaves/American Shipper stories by Eric Kulisch.
