1. Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD)

On April 13, 2026, Bernstein said Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) offers “asymmetric upside potential,” maintaining an Outperform rating and a $130 price target. The firm expects upside to be driven by a recovery in crypto markets and potential “breakout” growth in prediction markets revenue, adding that a weak Q1 is already reflected in the stock. Bernstein believes investors will look ahead to a rebound in trading volumes starting in Q2.

Robinhood also announced that it has partnered with Pinwheel as the direct deposit launch partner for Robinhood Banking, integrating Pinwheel’s Deposit Switch with PreMatch technology to streamline account funding. The initiative aims to address high inactivity rates after initial deposits by improving onboarding and engagement through a more seamless switching experience.

Earlier, Truist lowered its price target on Robinhood to $100 from $120 but maintained a Buy rating, incorporating recent trading data ahead of Q1 results. While the stock has faced pressure from crypto-related revenue headwinds and broader market volatility, the firm sees recent consolidation around the $70 level as an attractive entry point, supported by expectations for over 20% annual asset growth over the next three years.

Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) operates a digital financial services platform offering trading and investment products.
