On July 8, Robinhood declined 3.23% in regular trading, trading at $109.28/share, with turnover of $815 million. The stock experienced consecutive sessions of selling pressure following disclosure of a major insider sale plan.
On the news front, CEO and Director Vladimir Tenev filed a Form 144 plan to sell 375,000 shares of common stock through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, with an estimated proceeds of approximately $42.27 million. This marks the second consecutive trading day that the executive's large-scale divestiture plan has weighed on market sentiment. The stock had previously rallied after Autonomous Research raised its price target to $132 and Compass Point lifted its target to $130, but the consecutive pullback appears to reflect concerns over the CEO cashing out at elevated price levels.
Robinhood is scheduled to report second-quarter earnings after market close on July 29, with consensus EPS estimates at $0.41. The company has been expanding its business footprint through new perpetual futures products in Europe and the launch of Robinhood Chain with institutional wallet support from BitGo.
