The company is offering up to a third of its shares in its initial public offering to the Average Joes who use its app, instead of the Wall Street suits who usually get first dibs. The wisdom of those crowds may validate the $35 billion valuation that the company projected in a prospectus. But its numbers don’t.</p>\n<p>Make no mistake, Robinhood is a truly transformational company. Founders Vlad Tenev and Baiju Bhatt took a simple premise—zero commissions—and upended the brokerage industry. Its success forced the other major brokers to eliminate commissions and opened the door to millions of new investors who had never traded before. The company estimates that nearly half of all new brokerage accounts in the U.S. between 2016 and 2021 were opened at Robinhood. That’s even more impressive given that 2020 was a record year for new accounts in the U.S., and 2021 is shaping up to be even better.</p>\n<p>Robinhood is on track to generate enough revenue this year to justify a valuation of $35 billion in theory. It reported revenue of $522 million in the first quarter, and the company estimated that it pulled in between $546 million and $574 million in the second.</p>\n<p>Thomas Mason, an analyst at S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence, notes that when TD Ameritrade was a fast-growing broker in 1999, it traded at more than 26 times total net revenue. That would value Robinhood, with $1.35 billion in total net revenue for the four quarters ended March 31, at $35 billion.</p>\n<p>Robinhood’s problem, however, is the quality and sustainability of its revenue. At least three quarters of it comes from routing customers’ trades to trading firms that execute the trades and profit off the spread between the bid and the ask, a practice called payment for order flow. During trading frenzies, payment for order flow rises. But when trading slumps, payment for order flow slumps, too. That’s one reason most other brokers rely on other revenue streams for the majority of their revenue. Payment for order flow is also in the crosshairs of regulators, with Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Gary Gensler raising concerns about it in recent weeks.</p>\n<p>Robinhood by the Numbers</p>\n<p>The online trading platform released second-quarter financial estimates ahead of its initial public offering next week.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/caf36100ad5dfed3852c622f7f83f810\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"275\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Robinhood is also highly dependent on cryptocurrency trading, another area now getting a close review by the SEC. Trading in Dogecoin, the joke cryptocurrency favored by Elon Musk, made up about 6% of the company’s revenue in the first quarter.</p>\n<p>Thomas Peterffy, the chairman of Interactive Brokers, which focuses on more experienced traders, has been impressed by Robinhood and its ability to introduce new people into the market. “I’m a little bit talking my own book, because we get five to 10 customers from Robinhood every day,” he says. But he wouldn’t invest in the IPO. “I like to understand the profitability of a business,” he said. “But there is not a simple way to project Robinhood’s profits going forward, or even understand it going backward.”</p>\n<p>Robinhood could pivot to other business models—its goal is to branch out into lending and payments. But the company’s forays into new areas have not gone well so far. In fact, they have sometimes flopped in spectacular ways. In 2018, it had to withdraw its plan to offer checking and savings accounts after being called out for misleading marketing and a lack of insurance, and later backtracked on plans to offer trading in the U.K. and to obtain a bank charter. Barron’s has followed Robinhood’s twists and turns, including a cover story last August.</p>\n<p>The company says in its prospectus that its customers “already trust us with their hard-earned cash and assets,” so they will likely trust it to take care of their other needs as they grow their wealth. The company did not reveal just how much of that hard-earned money the typical customer has put in her account, but the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority said in an enforcement letter that the median Robinhood customer had $240 in her account as of February.</p>\n<p>Many investors seem to consider Robinhood their “play-money account,” says Hugh Tallents, senior partner at management consultancy cg42, which surveyed more than 1,000 account-holders at various brokers about their habits this year. To justify the valuation, “customers will have to change their financial behavior to integrate a lot of their financial life with a company that has been mired in scandal for a long time. I just don’t see that being likely,” Tallents says.</p>\n<p>Nearly every financial technology company is now focused on cross-selling customers on multiple services. Square (SQ), Stash, PayPal (PYPL), SoFi Technologies (SOFI) and more all want a bigger piece of your financial life. And some are able to make better first impressions. SoFi is known for refinancing student loans, for instance.</p>\n<p>Getting from a student loan to a mortgage is “a bit of a layup,” Tallents says. “It’s far harder to envisage a world where people take a quite basic tool, which Robinhood is by design, and put a lot of their debt-based products or their savings accounts and integrate those things together.”</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Robinhood IPO Is Coming Soon.

The company did not reveal just how much of that hard-earned money the typical customer has put in her account, but the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority said in an enforcement letter that the median Robinhood customer had $240 in her account as of February.\nMany investors seem to consider Robinhood their “play-money account,” says Hugh Tallents, senior partner at management consultancy cg42, which surveyed more than 1,000 account-holders at various brokers about their habits this year. To justify the valuation, “customers will have to change their financial behavior to integrate a lot of their financial life with a company that has been mired in scandal for a long time. I just don’t see that being likely,” Tallents says.\nNearly every financial technology company is now focused on cross-selling customers on multiple services. Square (SQ), Stash, PayPal (PYPL), SoFi Technologies (SOFI) and more all want a bigger piece of your financial life. And some are able to make better first impressions. SoFi is known for refinancing student loans, for instance.\nGetting from a student loan to a mortgage is “a bit of a layup,” Tallents says. “It’s far harder to envisage a world where people take a quite basic tool, which Robinhood is by design, and put a lot of their debt-based products or their savings accounts and integrate those things together.”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"HOOD":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3506,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":801719953,"gmtCreate":1627534181772,"gmtModify":1703491866872,"author":{"id":"3582258204322925","authorId":"3582258204322925","name":"SamTeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84695b2de7100b55607a44d0164d2375","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582258204322925","idStr":"3582258204322925"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Good job","listText":"Good job","text":"Good job","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/801719953","repostId":"1127264445","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127264445","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627514621,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127264445?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-29 07:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 ends off day's lows; Powell says Fed still a ways away from rate hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127264445","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after th","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after the Federal Reserve said the U.S. economic recovery remains on track and Chair Jerome <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/POWL\">Powell</a> said the central bank was still a ways away from considering raising interest rates.</p>\n<p>Keeping the market in check, shares of tech giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> Inc fell 1.2% after it forecast slowing revenue growth.</p>\n<p>In a news conference following the release of a new policy statement from the Fed, Powell also said the U.S. job market still had “some ground to cover” before it would be time to pull back from the economic support the U.S. central bank put in place in the spring of 2020 to battle the coronavirus pandemic’s economic shocks.</p>\n<p>“It looks like probably the most positive thing for the market was that they are nowhere near increasing interest rates,” said Alan Lancz, president, Alan B.

He said the company expects battery cell suppliers to double production next year.\nDespite the pandemic and the supply chain crisis, Tesla posted record deliveries during the quarter, thanks to sales of cheaper models including Model 3 sedans and Model Ys.\nThe carmaker, led by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, said revenue jumped to $11.96 billion from $6.04 billion a year earlier, when its California factory was shut down for more than six weeks due to local lockdown orders to fight the pandemic.\nAnalysts had expected revenue of about $11.3 billion, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.\nExcluding items, Tesla posted a profit of $1.45 per share, easily topping analyst expectations for a profit of 98 cents per share.\nTesla said operating income rose with volume growth and cost reduction, which offset higher supply chain costs, lower regulatory credit revenue and other items including $23 million in losses on investment in cryptocurrency bitcoin.\nTesla’s profitability has often relied on selling regulatory credits to other automakers, but in the second quarter, Tesla was profitable without these credits for the first time since the end of 2019. Its GAAP net income was $1.14 billion in the second quarter. Revenue from the credits only totaled $354 million.\n“Tesla impressed with its numbers, as most of its revenue came from vehicle sales,” Jesse Cohen, senior analyst at Investing.com, said.\nCarmaker Stellantis expects to achieve its European carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions targets this year without environmental credits bought from Tesla.\nTesla said it said it has delayed the launch of the Semi truck program to 2022 to focus on starting factories and due to limited availability of battery cells and other parts this year.\nBut the company’s new 4680 batteries are not ready for volume production; executives said it was difficult to predict when technological challenges would be resolved.\nIn an aside, Musk said he “most likely will not be on earnings calls” going forward to discuss financial results with investors and analysts. These calls have been a colorful quarterly ritual Musk has used for discourses on Tesla technology, or to fire back at rivals or critics.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4016,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":151671549,"gmtCreate":1625091747581,"gmtModify":1703735791578,"author":{"id":"3582258204322925","authorId":"3582258204322925","name":"SamTeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84695b2de7100b55607a44d0164d2375","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582258204322925","idStr":"3582258204322925"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Up","listText":"Up","text":"Up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/151671549","repostId":"1137039247","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3293,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184049922,"gmtCreate":1623679041766,"gmtModify":1704208485949,"author":{"id":"3582258204322925","authorId":"3582258204322925","name":"SamTeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84695b2de7100b55607a44d0164d2375","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3582258204322925","idStr":"3582258204322925"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184049922","repostId":"1167257883","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4447,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":810172547,"gmtCreate":1629957815789,"gmtModify":1676530184094,"author":{"id":"3582258204322925","authorId":"3582258204322925","name":"SamTeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84695b2de7100b55607a44d0164d2375","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582258204322925","authorIdStr":"3582258204322925"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Good job","listText":"Good job","text":"Good job","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/810172547","repostId":"1120813722","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1120813722","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629878460,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1120813722?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-25 16:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TSMC shares up on price increase; company declines to comment","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1120813722","media":"Focus Taiwan","summary":"Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.  rose Wednesday morning after local media reported that the world's largest contract chipmaker will raise product prices due to a global supply shortage, dealers said.Asked for comment on the reports, TSMC said the company never responds to any speculation on product price adjustments.The stock got a boost soon after the market opened from the reports, which said earlier Wednesday that TSMC will raise prices across the board.

Lancz & Associates Inc, an investment advisory firm based in Toledo, Ohio.\nRight after the Fed statement, the S&P 500 index reversed slight declines though it still ended a hair lower on the day.\nInvestors have been worried about how rising inflation and a spike in COVID-19 cases might impact the central bank’s plan to potentially start withdrawing its stimulus.\nThe central bank also said that higher inflation remained the result of “transitory factors.” The Fed kept its overnight benchmark interest rate near zero and left unchanged its bond-buying program.\nThe Nasdaq ended higher and shares of Google parent Alphabet Inc hit an all-time high as a surge in advertising spending helped it post record quarterly results. The stock ended up 3.2%.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 127.59 points, or 0.36%, to 34,930.93, the S&P 500 lost 0.82 point, or 0.02%, to 4,400.64 and the Nasdaq Composite added 102.01 points, or 0.7%, to 14,762.58.\nThe Fed’s statement came at the conclusion of its latest two-day policy meeting.\n“They had a chance to signal they were going to become more hawkish and they chose not to take it. The most important thing is they are predictable and they are remaining predictable,” said Ellen Hazen, portfolio manager at F.L. Putnam Investment Management in Wellesley, Massachusetts.\nIn other earnings news, Microsoft Corp ended down 0.1% even as a boom in cloud services helped it beat Wall Street expectations for revenue and earnings.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 9.86 billion shares, compared with a similar average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.\nAdvancing issues outnumbered declining ones on the NYSE by a 1.85-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.61-to-1 ratio favored advancers.\nThe S&P 500 posted 42 new 52-week highs and no new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 44 new highs and 67 new lows.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"161125":0.9,"ESmain":0.9,"SDS":0.9,"OEF":0.9,"SPY":0.9,"OEX":0.9,"UPRO":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,"SSO":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"SH":0.9,"IVV":0.9,"SPXU":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4192,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":809103709,"gmtCreate":1627350673401,"gmtModify":1703488117974,"author":{"id":"3582258204322925","authorId":"3582258204322925","name":"SamTeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84695b2de7100b55607a44d0164d2375","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582258204322925","authorIdStr":"3582258204322925"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/809103709","repostId":"1153028059","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153028059","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627340900,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1153028059?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-27 07:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla sales surge 98%; company boosts margins on its less-costly electric cars","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153028059","media":"Reuters","summary":" -Tesla Inc posted a bigger second-quarter profit than expected on Tuesday thanks to sharply higher sales of its less-expensive electric vehicles, as it raised prices to boost its margins on them.Tesla also cut costs which helped it offset many of the supply chain and microchip shortfalls facing the auto industry.For the first time since late 2019, Tesla profits did not rely on sales of environmental credits to other automakers, a sign of increasing financial health for the manufacturing operati","content":"<p>(Reuters) -Tesla Inc posted a bigger second-quarter profit than expected on Tuesday thanks to sharply higher sales of its less-expensive electric vehicles, as it raised prices to boost its margins on them.</p>\n<p>Tesla also cut costs which helped it offset many of the supply chain and microchip shortfalls facing the auto industry.</p>\n<p>For the first time since late 2019, Tesla profits did not rely on sales of environmental credits to other automakers, a sign of increasing financial health for the manufacturing operation.

The company is offering up to a third of its shares in its initial public offering to the Average Joes who use its app, instead of the Wall Street suits who usually get first dibs. The wisdom of those crowds may validate the $35 billion valuation that the company projected in a prospectus. But its numbers don’t.</p>\n<p>Make no mistake, Robinhood is a truly transformational company. Founders Vlad Tenev and Baiju Bhatt took a simple premise—zero commissions—and upended the brokerage industry.

The company is offering up to a third of its shares in its initial public offering to the Average Joes who use its app, instead of the Wall Street suits who usually get first dibs. The wisdom of those crowds may validate the $35 billion valuation that the company projected in a prospectus. But its numbers don’t.\nMake no mistake, Robinhood is a truly transformational company. Founders Vlad Tenev and Baiju Bhatt took a simple premise—zero commissions—and upended the brokerage industry. Its success forced the other major brokers to eliminate commissions and opened the door to millions of new investors who had never traded before. The company estimates that nearly half of all new brokerage accounts in the U.S. between 2016 and 2021 were opened at Robinhood.
