Now time for some of today’s trending tickers. We are watching Opendoor, Kroger and Centene. First up, we got open door. Those shares are surging after the company said co-founders Keith Raboy and Eric Woo will rejoin the board. The company appointed a new CEO after Kerry Wheeler abruptly stepped down last month. The company which buys homes online was at the center of the meme stock frenzy in July after hedge fund manager Eric Jackson laid out his bull case for the stock.

Next up, we got Kroger. The grocery grocery chains’s comparable sales and adjusted earnings beat expectations during the latest quarter. The results driven by higher sales of fresh food, e-commerce and pharmacy. The company also raising its full-year sales forecast as value seeking consumers are opting to eat at home. And Centene, the health insurer affirming its adjusted earnings per share guidance for the full year. Shares jumping after the insurer said early data showed its Medicare quality ratings are in line with the company’s expectations.
