In this article, we will take a look at the 10 Best Robinhood Stocks to Buy According to Billionaires.
Robinhood Markets, Inc. is a FINRA- and SEC-regulated broker that routes customer orders to market makers and exchanges. The company was founded with the goal of “democratizing finance for all” and has gradually expanded from a commission-free trading app into what analysts now describe as a broader financial SuperApp.
Back in March, Reuters reported that Robinhood launched its flagship $658.4 million venture fund on the New York Stock Exchange. The move gave retail investors a rare opportunity to invest in large private technology companies that have traditionally been accessible mostly to major venture capital firms.
The fund, trading under the ticker “RVI,” includes investments in private companies such as Databricks, fintech startup Ramp, and financial services company Revolut. Private markets have grown rapidly in recent years, with some startups reaching valuations comparable to, or even larger than, companies in the S&P 500. Databricks raised capital earlier this year at a $134 billion valuation, while Ramp was valued at $32 billion in November.
Analysts noted that the fund still comes with risks, especially because private company valuations can fluctuate significantly. The venture capital market has also remained uneven in recent years as IPO activity slowed. Robinhood CFO Shiv Verma said the fund also attracted interest from institutional investors during its IPO roadshow. According to him, the strategy could eventually expand into sectors such as energy, robotics, aerospace, and defense.
Robinhood was once viewed mainly as a trading platform for everyday investors. Over time, the company has widened its reach into a larger financial services business.
Given this, we will take a look at some of the best Robinhood stocks according to billionaires.

10. AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AMC)
Number of Billionaire Holders: 10
On May 7, Benchmark increased its rating on AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AMC) to Buy from Hold and set a $2.50 price target. The firm pointed to improving box office trends and stronger spending per moviegoer as key reasons behind the move. According to the analyst, AMC is “transitioning from a liquidity recovery story to an earnings and cash flow recovery story.” The analyst also noted that stronger attendance and higher pricing could lead to “disproportionate AEBITDA growth.” Management, they added, has indicated that the level of box office revenue needed for free cash flow breakeven is now much lower than it was before the pandemic.
During the company’s Q1 2026 earnings call, Chairman, President & CEO Adam Aron said AMC delivered its strongest first-quarter adjusted EBITDA result since the pre-pandemic period in 2019. He added that adjusted EBITDA improved by nearly $96 million from the same quarter last year. Aron also said the company improved its liquidity position during the quarter by raising around $72 million in gross proceeds through its at-the-market equity program.
At the same time, Executive VP of International Operations, IT & Procurement, CFO, and Treasurer Sean Goodman said AMC benefited from operating leverage, better per-patron performance metrics, and stronger operating efficiency. He said those factors helped drive a $96 million increase in first-quarter adjusted EBITDA and contributed to a post-pandemic first-quarter adjusted EBITDA record of $38.3 million.
AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AMC) operates as a movie exhibition company with theater operations across the United States and Europe. Its business is divided into two segments: U.S. markets and International markets.

According to the firm, the company’s Preferreds remain highly accretive and relatively easy to service. Canaccord also said the company appears to be shifting toward issuing digital credit rather than relying on common equity to raise capital.

Number of Billionaire Holders: 19
On May 9, H.C. Wainwright lowered its price recommendation on Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN) to $310 from $350. It reiterated a Buy rating on the shares. The firm said Coinbase’s first-quarter results came in weaker than expected, and near-term guidance also fell short of expectations. Even so, the analyst noted that management is still making progress on key strategic goals. These include expanding products, gaining market share, strengthening its position in stablecoins, and maintaining tighter control over expenses. The analyst added that those efforts could support a stronger second half of 2026 if crypto prices recover, trading volumes improve, and regulatory clarity becomes more favorable.
Also on May 9, Monness Crespi lowered its price goal on Coinbase to $110 from $115 and kept a Sell rating on the shares. The firm said Coinbase missed consensus estimates for both revenue and EBITDA in the first quarter. The analyst also pointed to continued spot market share losses on a trading volume basis, despite management’s comments during the quarter. According to the firm, the biggest issue heading into 2026 is how CLARITY could affect revenue share dynamics.

During the company’s fiscal Q2 2026 earnings call, Chairman and CEO Brian Niccol said the quarter marked an important turning point for Starbucks, as the company reported growth in both revenue and earnings for the first time in more than two years. Niccol said positive comparable sales trends continued into April, giving Starbucks enough confidence to raise its fiscal 2026 guidance. The company now expects global comparable sales growth of at least 5% and earnings per share in the range of $2.25 to $2.45. According to Niccol, North America remained Starbucks’ best-performing segment.

He also said Starbucks planned to roll out a new app feature in May that would let customers schedule pickup times for their orders. During the quarter, the company also announced a move to weekly pay and introduced a new quarterly rewards program for baristas and shift supervisors, Niccol added.
Executive Vice President, CFO, and Principal Accounting Officer Catherine Smith said consolidated Q2 revenue reached $9.5 billion, up 9% from the same period last year. Smith also noted that starting in Q3, the retail operations of Starbucks China would no longer be consolidated into the company’s financial statements. Instead, they would be included within Starbucks’ broader licensed portfolio.
