SOFI stock is moving higher today after reporting record second-quarter results and raising full-year guidance. The stock climbed 8% in early trading, rebounding from a recent 50% decline since its 2025 peak. The move reflects strong earnings and revenue beats, record loan originations, and an expanded fee revenue model, though some analysts have reduced price targets citing capital intensity concerns.

What Happened

SoFi Technologies reported Q2 2026 results that exceeded expectations, with revenue up 7% year-over-year and net revenue guidance raised for the full year. The company also expanded its fee-based revenue streams and achieved record loan originations. Despite these positive fundamentals, the stock initially dipped following the earnings report, likely due to a lower-than-expected EPS figure. However, it has since rebounded sharply, with the stock trading near session highs after opening at $16.49. The move comes amid mixed analyst sentiment, with some firms lowering price targets while maintaining or adjusting their ratings.

Recent insider activity has also drawn attention, with several executives selling shares in the past two months. Meanwhile, Donald J. Trump has made multiple small trades in the stock over the past five months, including both purchases and sales.

The intraday session has shown a volatile start, with the stock reaching a high of $16.57 at 7:05 AM ET before pulling back to a low of $15.83 at 10:15 AM ET. It closed the session near $16.34, with 42.3 million shares traded so far, or 0.6 times the 3-month daily average. Unusual options activity has also been noted, with 22 notable prints, including a single $2.4 million call premium trade. The stock has declined 4.0% over the last 8 sessions, moving from $17.07 to $16.38.
