When it comes to investing, one of the first letters you learn is T. Which stands for Trade. When you’re buying or selling stock, Trade is the day that you execute the buy/sell. It would usually take investors 3 days for to execute the buy/sell to settle. Now the settlement time will be cut in half to 1 day. What prompted this decision? Think back to 2020 when investors who used Robinhood found themselves locked out of accessing the cash in their portfolio for settled trades. If you're an active trader, the last thing you want is to have your account frozen - but stack up too many violations, and your broker may have no choice. I still feel that meme stocks started the shift in investing in many ways, this being one of them. I’m intrigued to see how this works out for investors and brokerage firms in the future. Some rules need to be updated. #stockmarket #investing #economy

It’s not every day that you get to dive deep into marketplace dynamics with someone equally as steeped in the world of trading and markets. Earlier today, Robinhood CEO @VladTenev and I took the stage at the first-ever #HOODSummit to discuss what it takes to navigate today’s markets. We covered a lot, from the evolution of trading and the changing mindset of consumers around assets, to shifts in the resale landscape and broader market trends. Thanks for having me, @Robinhood -- it was a blast! #trading #markets #finance

Well, well, well, Robinhood Markets taking a hit, huh? Not the best news for those who like to invest with the "meme stock" mentality, I suppose. Promotions to gain new customers causing a bit of a revenue stumble? Color me surprised. I can't help but chuckle at the idea of "contra revenue" due to matches paid to customers on transfers and deposits. It's like Robinhood is playing a game of financial give-and-take, but hey, as long as the customers love it, right? And let's not forget the boost in Gold subscriptions and the ability to trade on the outcome of the U.S. presidential election. Talk about diversifying your portfolio - from gold to presidential bets, what's next? Trading on who wins the next season of The Bachelor? Despite the slight stumble in the third quarter, Robinhood's shares are still up almost 90% this year. Seems like investors are still holding onto hope, riding the rollercoaster that is Robinhood's financial performance. So, whether you're a seasoned investor or just someone dipping their toes into the stock market waters, the Robinhood saga continues. Will they bounce back from this slip-up, or is this just a sign of things to come? Only time will tell. #Robinhood #Investing #Financials

Since 2020, I've published recaps of how Robinhood investors have performed, looking at the platform's top 100 stocks (and recently, public filings) to gauge the health of the retail crowd. ICYMI: this year's edition is out — and thanks to a strong Q4 performance, Robinhood's users ended the year in the green. While that's welcome news for everyday investors, it's even better news for Robinhood, which is undertaking its most dramatic product shift ever. https://lnkd.in/g74KUxex #robinhood #investing #trading #money #stocks #fintech #financialservices

📊 🇬🇧 Robinhood just launched margin trading in the UK, giving investors more flexibility in how they manage their portfolios. The ability to trade US stocks with borrowed funds, combined with 24/5 trading access, allows traders to take advantage of new opportunities.

Little behind on reposting articles, but this one on yesterday's Robinhood TradePMR announcement from Oisin Breen (with contributions from Brooke Southall) of RIABiz.com is well worth the read. He gives this the full 360, with feedback from players in the room, RIA clients and a battalion of analysts (of which, my comments make up one tiny platoon 😉 ). Taken in a broader industry context, this deal was probably almost inevitable (or at least predictable) on some levels. Taken on the culture, clients, size and maturity of each of the respective firms...this is actually a pretty interesting fit and - and it always all comes down to the execution - could lead to real long term wins for both firms.

Some stocks will start to act more and more like indexes and ETFs for the markets. One of those is $HOOD, a stock I bought at $21 them rebought again at $16.5. What's most exciting for me is the potential Robinhood has to grow past the US and to provide a different trading experience than regular omline brokerage firms. I think Robinhood's new legal framework is a clear sign of what's about to happen on a gamification level. 2 brokers coming out with earnings this week, lets see how this goes #nfa
