By Q2 2026, Robinhood had 13 business lines each generating at least 100 million USD in annualized revenue, up from one in 2019 and nine in 2024. The author argues that adding products such as options, crypto, Gold subscriptions and credit cards lets the company earn more from each customer without customer acquisition costs. Robinhood ended Q2 with 28.4 million funded customers, up 7%, 4.8 million Gold subscribers, up 39%, and average revenue per user up 24% to 187 USD. Transaction revenue rose 44% to 776 million USD, alongside 389 million USD in net interest revenue and 143 million USD in other revenue, which reduces reliance on trading activity. The author cautions that annualized revenue is the quarter's revenue multiplied by four, so the 13 lines should not be treated as mature businesses each generating 100 million USD.

- Robinhood Is Now Down 11% This Year. Is It Time to Sell?
Robinhood (HOOD) shares are down 11% in 2026 at $100.96 after sliding 9% in today's session, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust is up 13% and Interactive Brokers (IBKR) has gained 31%. Webull (BULL) is down 24% year to date and the Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLF) is up 0.3%, so the article attributes Robinhood's weakness to company-specific factors. Robinhood began allowing 24-hour weekend trading of U.S. stocks on October 1, but the article says it is unclear whether the added revenue will close the gap with Interactive Brokers. It suggests that a measured review of a position may make more sense than a full exit, unless broader damage across brokerages strengthens the case for selling.
- Analysts Raise Targets on Securitize, Coinbase, Robinhood; BofA Cuts eToro
StoneX raised its Securitize (SECZ) price target by 50% to $18, keeping a Buy rating, arguing that the tokenized stock trading platform launched last week will open a major new revenue stream; the new target sits about 45% above current prices after shares fell roughly 10% on Monday morning. According to StoneX, most tokenization revenue has so far come from integration fees, even though second-quarter transaction volume reached $5.3 billion, and it projects revenue of nearly $120 million in 2027 and almost $200 million in 2028. Separately, Bank of America raised its targets on Robinhood (HOOD) to $156 and Coinbase (COIN) to $203, keeping Buy ratings, but cut eToro (ETOR) to $39 with a Neutral rating.
- VIX Securities Still Holds VND 1,000 Billion of Undisbursed Capital from Share Offering
VIX Securities (HoSE: VIX) raised over 11,026 billion VND from an offering of nearly 919 million shares priced at 12,000 VND each on April 20, 2026. Over 5,013 billion VND each was disbursed to proprietary investment and margin lending from April 22 to May 26, 2026, but the 1,000 billion VND earmarked to contribute capital to VIX's digital asset trading exchange had not been disbursed as of October 20, 2026. In Q3 2026, pre-tax profit fell nearly 94% year on year to 192 billion VND, with revenue down 36% to 2,047 billion VND and proprietary trading booking a net loss of 94 billion VND. For the first nine months, revenue fell 18% to 5,050 billion VND and pre-tax profit dropped nearly 92% to about 424 billion VND, mainly due to proprietary trading losses, leaving VIX at 12.1% of its 3,500 billion VND full-year pre-tax target. Total assets rose 16.6% to nearly 39,860 billion VND by September 30, 2026, while margin loans fell from 15,380 billion VND to 12,422 billion VND.
- Crypto Exchanges Want Your Next Stock Trade in 2027
- Bybit will look for big broker partnerships to take on Robinhood in the U.S.
Bybit CEO Ben Zhou said the exchange plans to enter the U.S. through a partnership with an established local firm, such as Interactive Brokers, rather than pursue state-by-state licenses that could take two to three years. He noted Bybit, which has over 80 million registered users in more than 180 countries and regions, has a clean U.S. record and would wait for the Clarity Act or a clearer federal regulator before moving rather than rushing in. Zhou described the U.S. as competitive and saturated, and pointed to the U.K. as a relatively untapped market with a new crypto regime and no dominant global exchange, though entry costs are very high. Bybit also plans to launch an everything app offering derivatives and tokenized stocks in Europe as early as the first quarter of next year.

- Trump's executive order targets mortgage insurance, refinance costs. What it means for borrowers
President Donald Trump signed an executive order, “Decreasing Housing Costs for the American People,” to lower mortgage costs as rising interest rates and inflation weigh on homeownership. It directs federal agencies to proactively cancel mortgage insurance on eligible future loans once home equity reaches a set threshold, and to make a refinancing cost-reduction program permanent. Freddie Mac data show 30-year fixed-rate mortgages at 7.32% as of Oct. 23, while refinance demand was down 59% in mid-October from a year earlier. Keith Gumbinger of HSH said it is difficult to gauge the consumer impact without more details, and that the refinancing change is not necessarily a game-changer given that home prices and mortgage rates dictate costs. The order comes less than two weeks before the Nov. 3 midterm elections.
- CoreWeave Heads for Third Weekly Loss, Weighing on Stocks and Bitcoin Over AI Financing Fears
Bitcoin traded near $81,400 on Friday, little changed on the day after a 3.2% drop Thursday as weakness in equities over concerns about AI infrastructure financing weighed on the market. CoreWeave (CRWV) plunged 10% Thursday to a 52-week low of $53.50, is down roughly 37% in October and is heading for a third straight weekly loss; Bernstein cut its price target to $51 from $74 and Morgan Stanley to $70 from $99. The Nasdaq Composite fell 2.6% Thursday to 26,009, its worst day since June, while Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said a “scarcity of capital” is hampering neocloud buildouts. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $635 million Thursday, the largest one-day withdrawal since late June. Crypto liquidations totaled $336 million over 24 hours, including $281 million in long positions.
- Why Comfort Systems Plunged Today
Comfort Systems (FIX) fell as much as 13.2% on Friday before trimming its decline to 8.9% by 3:10 p.m. EDT, despite beating revenue and earnings estimates for the quarter. Revenue rose 53.7% and EPS grew 68.6% to $13.91, while backlog climbed to $17.8 billion from $14.1 billion three months earlier. The article attributes the sell-off mainly to the announced year-end retirement of Bill George, a founder and longtime CFO, along with a "sell the news" reaction seen across AI-linked stocks this earnings season. Shares are about 38% below their June all-time high and trade at 19.4 times average 2027 analyst earnings estimates.
- Intel Stock Has Moved an Average of 16% the Day After Its Last 3 Reports. Should You Buy Before the Next One?
Intel reports third-quarter results after the close on Oct. 29, and its stock has moved an average of about 16% in the session after its last three reports: down 17% after January, up 24% after April, and down 8% after July. The company beat its own forecasts each time, yet shares fell twice because management's outlook for the coming months carried more weight. The third-quarter revenue midpoint of $16.3 billion is only about 1% above the second quarter, a sharp slowdown, so the fourth-quarter forecast is seen as the key number to watch. At around 44 times expected 2027 earnings, the author argues the share price already reflects a return to growth, and says he would not buy the stock before the report.
- SpaceX Filing Gives Elon Musk the Final Word on Tesla Merger He Says He’s Staying Out Of
SpaceX stated in an SEC filing that any merger with Tesla must be approved by its controlling shareholder, Elon Musk, who holds roughly 85% of voting power. Musk recused himself from both special committees but publicly endorsed the deal, which Reuters reported created a "mess" for the independent process. Both companies formed special committees on October 20 to evaluate a proposed deal that analysts estimate could create a combined entity worth around $3.5 trillion. REX Financial estimates Musk would hold roughly 57% of combined voting power. Tesla shareholders must clear a 50%-of-all-outstanding-shares threshold, with a vote expected at or near the December 3 annual meeting.
