Moneyta sentiment
Where the published evidence leans after the desk debated it — not a rating or a recommendation.
−0.0 on a −2 to +2 scale.
What builds the score
Solid bars are analyst rubric scores; faded bars are computed directly from data. Claims dropped in debate count for nothing; weakened claims count at half weight.
Editor's note
Written after the debate settled — the rest of the page is the evidence behind it.
The surviving evidence paints a mixed picture anchored by a clear quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year improvement in core top- and bottom-line metrics. Revenues for fiscal Q2 2026 (ended 2026-06-30) were $ 1,308,000,000 versus $ 1,067,000,000 in fiscal Q1 2026 (ended 2026-03-31), and net income rose to $ 561,000,000 from $ 350,000,000 over the same sequential comparison. Year-over-year, fiscal Q2 2026 revenues were $ 1,308,000,000 versus $ 989,000,000 in fiscal Q2 2025 (ended 2025-06-30), with net income of $ 561,000,000 versus $ 386,000,000. Balance-sheet snapshots show cash and cash equivalents rising to $ 5,362,000,000 as of 2026-06-30 and total assets increasing to $ 56,550,000,000 from $ 45,474,000,000 the prior quarter, while liabilities also grew to $ 47,009,000,000.
Market and ownership signals are mixed: short-term price momentum and relative strength are strong (+36.1% and +23.8% over six months), but the 12-1 momentum metric is negative at -12.3% and long-term relative strength is weak. Volatility is elevated (30-day vol 67.7%, 90-day vol 72.3%), beta to the S&P 500 is high at 3.07, and a technical golden cross is present and 18 days old. Insider Form 4 activity shows concentrated sales by a director and officers in July–August 2026, with those filings reported as executed under 10b5-1 plans.
How this note was made
every stage ran before the note was writtenAnalyst desk
Mercer, Oakes, Nash, Ellis, Yates, Talbot and Archer. The desk: named AI agents, not people. Each reads one slice of the evidence and nothing else — no outside knowledge, no browsing — so every finding traces to a source you can open.
Reads the XBRL figures companies file with the SEC — revenue, margins, income, debt and share count, quarter by quarter — and reports which way the trend is running.
Revenues for the quarter ended 30 June 2026 (fiscal Q2 2026, 2026-04-01 to 2026-06-30) were $1,308,000,000, up from $1,067,000,000 in the quarter ended 31 March 2026 (fiscal Q1 2026, 2026-01-01 to 2026-03-31).
XBRL companyfacts · 0001783879-26-000114Net income for the quarter ended 30 June 2026 (fiscal Q2 2026) was $561,000,000, up from $350,000,000 in the quarter ended 31 March 2026 (fiscal Q1 2026).

Which filings the desk reads
The desk reads the annual 10-K in full — its risk factors, and how they changed since last year. Quarterly 10-Qs and event filings (8-Ks, insider Form 4s) are listed for context but not read line by line: the 10-K is where the material risk disclosures live. A brand-new company, or one we have only just begun tracking, may have no annual report on file yet — its risk analysis fills in once that lands.
In the three months ended June 30, 2026 (filed 2026-07-30), total net revenues increased 32% to $1,308 million compared to $989 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Management's discussion · filed 2026-07-30In the three months ended June 30, 2026 (filed 2026-07-30), net income attributable to Robinhood increased 45% to $561 million and diluted EPS increased 48% to $0.62 versus $386 million and $0.42, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

A bull and a bear contest the claims and the chair rules on each; the risk review stress-tests what survived.
A bull and a bear argue the analysts' claims across two rounds, then a chair rules on each one. Only what survives feeds the score — the argument is shown, not hidden, so you can judge the reasoning yourself.
Several company-reported fundamentals and operating metrics together form a favorable read: quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year revenue and net income growth (fundamentals-0, fundamentals-1, fundamentals-3, filings-0, filings-1) occurred alongside expanding funded customers and platform assets (filings-2) and a modest increase in cash on hand (fundamentals-4, valuation-2). Market signals show strong recent price momentum and a constructive technical posture (market-0, market-4), and multiple news items and analyst interest point to positive sentiment around crypto-driven activity and product expansion (news-0, news-1, news-2). The most directly weakening points — clustered insider sales and elevated volatility/beta — are mitigated in part by disclosures that several insider trades were under 10b5-1 plans (insider-4) and by evidence of sustained operating cash generation (valuation-1), which together reduce the probative weight of headline insider activity and short-term price swings. Evidence strength is strongest for reported financial growth and platform metrics (multiple SEC filings, filings-0..2; fundamentals-0..3) and for the near-term market momentum signal (market-0), while insider sale interpretations and long-term volatility exposures rely on weaker or non-definitive context (insider-0..3, market-1..3).
Chair's verdict, claim by claim
Fragility · computed, not argued
balanced0.34
36 surviving claims rest on 16 distinct sources; the heaviest analyst carries 19% of them, and 97% of what the desk raised survived the debate.
The surviving read is relatively robust: most claims held up through debate and they draw on a moderate set of distinct sources. However, a meaningful share of the surviving claims depends on a few contributors and on a small number of filings, so the room for source-concentration or analyst-specific interpretation to sway the read is non-trivial.

Analyst consensus
Third-party consensus, shown for context only — it never enters Moneyta sentiment.
Read means we pulled and handed it to an analyst; cited means a claim on this page points at it. Reading twelve quarters to state one trend is normal — the gap is shown rather than hidden.
Written by AI, checked against sources
The analysts, the bull–bear debate and the editor's note are AI agents reading only the evidence listed on this page. They can misread a filing or a headline, which is why every claim cites a source you can open and check yourself. The sentiment score is arithmetic over the claims that survived the debate, not a language model's opinion.
