SoFi Technologies stock is gaining positive traction. What’s pushing SOFI stock higher?

CEO Anthony Noto has kept buying shares in the open market, including 13,888 shares in June at a weighted average price of $18.06, extending a 2026 streak to five separate purchases. Noto’s 2026 buying streak now totals 130,211 shares at a blended average price of about $17.29, and he holds roughly 11.96 million shares directly, sizeable insider alignment that can cushion dips when the tape turns choppy.The company has also been drawing attention for its SoFiUSD rollout, described as a U.S. national bank-issued stablecoin available inside its banking app with access expanded to nearly 15 million members. SoFi has framed the token as "bank-grade" and 1:1 redeemable, a positioning that keeps the product narrative in play even on risk-off days.SoFi Launches AI-Powered “Composer” Investing PlatformSoFi on Tuesday also officially announced the launch of Composer by SoFi, an AI-powered investing platform born from its recent acquisition of Composer Securities LLC. The platform bridges the gap between retail investors having an idea and executing it as an automated strategy.“Composer has built one of the most innovative AI-powered investing platforms available to retail investors today,” Noto said.“Our acquisition of Composer reflects SoFi’s strategy of identifying innovative technologies and exceptional teams that can strengthen our ecosystem over time. As AI becomes a foundational part of investing, Composer by SoFi strengthens our ability to deliver powerful investing tools through an experience that is simple, intuitive and accessible.”Critical Price Levels To Watch For SOFISoFi is trying to stabilize after a longer slide, and the bigger-picture trend is still a headwind: the stock is trading about 22.9% below its 200-day SMA ($22.62), and the death cross that formed in March keeps longer-term trend followers cautious. That said, price is now back above the shorter-term baselines—about 2.5% above the 20-day SMA ($17.02) and 2.7% above the 50-day SMA ($16.98)—which is typically what you want to see if a base is forming.Momentum looks more "reset than stretched" right now, with RSI at 54.67 (neutral), suggesting buyers and sellers are closer to balance than they were during the March oversold stretch. A push back above the 100-day SMA ($17.70) would help confirm that the rebound is turning into something more durable, rather than just a bounce inside a downtrend.
