  • Roblox Corp (RBLX): A Leading Debt-Free Stock with Morgan Stanley Overweight Rating
    January 19, 2026, 7:55 AM EST. Roblox Corporation (NYSE:RBLX) stands out as a top debt-free stock option. Morgan Stanley reaffirmed an Overweight rating but lowered the price target to $155 from $170. The firm highlighted Roblox's strong engagement, boosted by new game 'Escape Tsunami' reaching #4 on the platform shortly after launch. Morgan Stanley sees 2026 internet sector performance mirroring 2025, favoring companies with strong returns on investments in Generative AI (GenAI) and GPU-enabled technologies. Ridesharing and smaller ad platforms face valuation pressures due to disruption risks. Despite Roblox's potential, some AI stocks may offer higher upside with less risk. Roblox operates a popular online game creation platform, attracting attention as investors focus on tech innovation and robust growth prospects in 2026.
