13 Best Stocks to Invest In on Robinhood for Beginners

Page 1 of 7

In this article, we will be taking a look at the 13 Best Stocks to Invest In on Robinhood for Beginners.

MacroMicro reports that as of March 18, 2026, the S&P 500’s forward 12-month P/E was 21.35, which was far higher than its 10-year historical average of 18.9 but slightly lower than the 22.0x reported at year’s end 2025. In January 2026, Goldman Sachs chief U.S. stock strategist Ben Snider stated that there was little room for error because the 22x multiple was extremely near to the record 24x in 2000 and matched the 2021 peak. In this situation, investors have been shifting more and more toward less-priced businesses.

The Russell 3000 Value Index increased by 2.59% in February 2026 while the Growth Index decreased by 2.56%, a difference of more than 5% in only one month, according to James Investment Research. In a similar vein, the Morningstar US Value Index increased by 18.60% in the year ending February 19, 2026, while the Morningstar US Growth Index increased by 8.33%.

As market pressure increases, there is a shift towards value. The S&P 500 has already lost almost 4% of its value so far this year, and rising oil prices linked to the intensifying conflict with Iran have heightened concerns about inflation and lowered hopes for interest rate reductions. Former Lehman Brothers trader Larry McDonald has warned of a potential 20% to 35% market decline, noting the Magnificent Seven are down 11% from their 2025 peaks. He also flagged the risk of the U.S. jobless rate rising to 6% from around 4%, especially after the U.S. lost 92,000 jobs in February.

In light of this, Robinhood Markets provides investors with access to possibilities that are undervalued. Since the introduction of fractional shares in late 2019, the platform has attracted over 27 million individual investors. In February 2026, Robinhood revealed $314.2 billion in assets, 27.4 million funded users, and $68 billion in net deposits over the preceding year, indicating its growing prominence as a major retail investment platform.

With that said, let’s now move on to the best Robinhood stocks.

Our Methodology  

For our methodology, we screened stocks available on the Robinhood app with a market capitalization of over $2 billion and analyst upside potential of at least 20%. We then narrowed our final selection to companies that have recently reported noteworthy developments likely to influence investor sentiment. These stocks are also popular among analysts and elite hedge funds.

Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter’s strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 498.7% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 303 percentage points (see more details here).

Here is our list of the 13 best stocks to invest in on Robinhood for Beginners.

13. XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV)

XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) is among the best Robinhood Stocks.

TheFly reported on March 23 that Barclays kept an Underweight rating on XPEV while cutting its price target from $17 to $16 following the company’s fourth quarter results. Although XPEV’s first-quarter outlook was worse, the firm said that fourth-quarter sales and gross margin came in mostly as anticipated.

XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) issued its first-quarter 2026 guidance and its unaudited fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 financial results on March 20. The company reported revenue of RMB22.25 billion for the fourth quarter, increasing 9.2% sequentially and 38.2% year over year. Vehicle sales revenue increased to RMB19.07 billion.

12. Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNS)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 31  

Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNS) is one of the best Robinhood stocks to invest in.

TheFly reported on March 23 that William Blair lowered its rating on VRNS from Outperform to Market Perform, without assigning a price target. The downgrading was a reflection of the firm’s worries about increased unpredictability in the AI-driven software industry. According to William Blair, infrastructure software firms are about to undergo a significant shift that calls for them to reevaluate their offerings, pricing structures, and marketing tactics. The company underlined that AI’s disruptive effects on the sector are significant and unlikely to abate anytime soon, indicating continued difficulties for businesses in the infrastructure software sector.

Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNS) officially launched Varonis Atlas on March 17, which is a comprehensive AI security platform designed to give organizations full visibility and control over AI across their operations.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

Dr. Inan Dogan

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

My name is Inan Dogan. I’m the co-founder and Research Director of Insider Monkey. I have an important message for you today.

Since March 2017, my stock picks have returned 16.5% annually. Today, I’ve found an opportunity even bigger than my British American Tobacco call.

Two years ago, Wall Street wrote off British American Tobacco (BTI) as a “melting ice cube.” The stock had crashed 40% from its peak, and consensus said the business was dying.

We looked under the cover and realized they were wrong.

We alerted our subscribers, and BTI returned 90% in just 16 months.

Now if you had invested just $10,000 in BTI in June 2024, you’d be sitting on $19,000 in October 2025.

Today, we have identified a nearly identical pattern in a digital-first giant trading at $3.

While the market panics over a surface-level revenue decline, our PhD-led research shows management has actually surgically cut $100 million in waste to focus on high-margin growth.

This pattern is a hallmark of our 16.5% annual return track record. The current opportunity offers a 400% upside potential—dwarfing even our 90% BTI return.

Get the ticker for our new “Underdog” pick and the full BTI case study for just 99 cents.
