What the Market Is Telling Us About Robinhood Stock

The selloff shows investors wanted more than a revenue match.

The EPS miss and softer transaction revenue were the focus. Revenue growth depends heavily on market activity, and that makes Robinhood stock sensitive to trading swings.

Analysts also asked about take rates, which were lighter than expected. CFO Shiv Verma said crypto was hurt by Robinhood Earn, a stablecoin product that earns less.

He said spreads in October were a bit tighter, too.

Revenue per user came up on the call too. Management said it does not set goals on that metric, with a focus on market share and customer deposits instead.

October net deposits topped $13 billion, including a $6 billion gift from the Dell family to Trump accounts. Year-to-date deposits are above $68 billion.

Event contract trading volumes are up about 10% to start the quarter. Trading in stocks, options, and crypto is about 5% lighter than the record Q3.
