Sentiment on Robinhood is decisively bullish after Morgan Stanley upgraded it to Overweight with a $150 target and the company landed its first IPO underwriting role on Oura's $11B listing. Traders are hyping Robinhood Chain flipping Solana in 24h app revenue and prediction markets now out-earning equities trading, with even skeptics conceding the product velocity is hard to fade.
Proven numbers
Robinhood is the retail brokerage that turned zero-commission trading into a habit and is now moving upstream into IPO underwriting and prediction markets — territory the old-line brokers used to own outright.
• The core is throwing off real cash, not just growing users: Q1 revenue grew 15% YoY at a 46% operating margin, so every new lane arrives on top of a genuinely profitable base — this isn't a growth story propped up by burn.
• The multiple is priced for the product-surface widening to keep landing — at 39x earnings, prediction markets and Robinhood Chain need to become material lines, not experiments.
• Officer selling is the one hair on it: brokerage chief Steven Quirk's $2.9M sale and general counsel Dan Gallagher's $1.2M sale last week aren't a cluster, but they're not conviction either.
If the new lanes keep compounding, 39x stops looking rich. If either stalls, the multiple turns hostile fast — Q3 earnings on Nov 4 is the next real test.
