How it happened
Doma (formerly States Title) used machine learning to streamline title insurance and closings, and was valued near $3B at its 2021 SPAC listing. Rising rates crushed mortgage and refinance volumes, the stock collapsed below $1B, and in 2023 Title Resources Group bought it in a fire-sale valued around $530M.
