Getaround (NYSE:GETR) stock is on the move Thursday despite a lack of recent news concerning the car-sharing service.

Instead, investors will note that the company’s shares have been on a wild ride since completing its special purpose acquisition merger (SPAC) last week. This saw it combine with InterPrivate II Acquisition Corp. to avoid a normal initial public offering (IPO) for GETR stock.

While InterPrivate II Acquisition Corp’s stock was valued at around $10 at the start of the month, GETR stock is only trading for about $1 as of this writing. That represents a massive roughly 90% drop in just a short period of time after the SPAC merger.

Can GETR Stock Bounce Back?

It looks like traders have taken notice of this incredible dip and are loading up on shares of GETR stock today. As of this writing, more than 5 million shares of the stock have changed hands. That’s well above its daily average trading volume of about 183,000 shares.

The real question is how long will this last. While GETR stock jumped as much as 22% after markets opened this morning, it couldn’t maintain that strong movement. As a result, the company’s shares are only up 6.2% as of Thursday morning. That could be a sign that it will lose further ground throughout the day.
