Robinhood (HOOD) Stock on December 10, 2025: 164% Rally, Indonesia Expansion and Insider Selling

Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD) is back in the spotlight on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, as the trading app’s shares hover in the mid‑$130s, not far below their 52‑week high of $153.86. Over the last 12 months, the stock has climbed roughly 164%, and it’s up nearly 270% year to date, turning Robinhood from a post‑meme punchline into one of the standout performers in the S&P 500 this year. ^[1]

That spectacular rally isn’t just hype. Robinhood’s turnaround is now backed by hard numbers: in the third quarter of 2025, total net revenue doubled year over year to $1.27 billion, net income surged to $556 million, and diluted EPS jumped to $0.61, comfortably beating Wall Street estimates. Platform assets swelled to about $333 billion, funded customers rose to 26.8 million, and average revenue per user climbed to $191, helped by record net deposits of more than $20 billion and a 77% jump in Robinhood Gold subscribers to 3.9 million. ^[2]

Now, with fresh insider trading disclosures, new institutional filings, and a bold push into Indonesia, investors are asking the obvious question: after such a massive run, is HOOD stock still a buy on December 10, 2025—or is the easy money already gone?

A blistering 2025 rally built on real earnings

A big part of Robinhood’s re‑rating came after its blowout Q3 report in early November. Management highlighted that transaction-based revenue soared 129% year over year to $730 million, powered by: ^[3]

Crypto trading revenue of about $268 million, up more than 300% from a year ago
Options revenue of roughly $304 million, up 50%
Equities revenue of $86 million, up 132%

At the same time, net interest revenue jumped 66% to $456 million as larger interest‑earning balances and securities lending kicked in, while “other” revenue doubled, helped by the surge in paying Robinhood Gold subscribers. ^[4]

The result: Robinhood is no longer just a story about hyperactive meme traders. It’s now a profitable, diversified fintech with: ^[5]

11 different business lines each generating roughly $100 million or more in annualized revenue
Record trading volumes across equities, options, and crypto
Strong net deposit growth, with $68.3 billion in net deposits over the past 12 months

That transformation is exactly what many early‑2020s skeptics said Robinhood would never pull off—and it’s a core reason the stock has gone vertical in 2025.

From early‑December spike to today’s consolidation

The user‑supplied MarketBeat alerts from December 2–4 capture how aggressively the market has repriced HOOD over just a few trading days:

December 2: Shares climbed 2.2% to around $125.95, with intraday highs near $129.18, even as trading volume ran about 37% below average. ^[6]
December 3: HOOD jumped another 6.1%, finishing near $133.64 after an intraday high of $134.34, again on lighter‑than‑usual volume. ^[7]
December 4: The rally continued with a 2.6% move to roughly $137.08, as analysts reiterated or raised bullish ratings and price targets. ^[8]

Across these three sessions, HOOD gained roughly 10–11%, driven by the Q3 earnings beat and a wave of analyst upgrades. Multiple firms now carry price targets in the $150–$170 range, even as the consensus sits around $136.95 with an overall “Moderate Buy” rating. ^[9]

As of December 9–10, MarketBeat and other trackers show Robinhood opening or trading around $135–$137, implying a market cap of roughly $120–122 billion and a price‑to‑earnings multiple in the mid‑50s—rich for a broker, even a high‑growth one. ^[10]

New filings show big money moving on both sides

The latest December 10 filings and disclosures paint a nuanced picture of who’s buying and who’s selling HOOD at these elevated levels.

Institutions: heavy ownership, mixed moves

A pair of fresh MarketBeat alerts show how institutional investors are repositioning: ^[11]

Arrow Capital Pty Ltd trimmed its Robinhood stake by about 21.4% in Q2, selling 15,000 shares and bringing its holdings to 55,000 shares—still its 10th‑largest position, worth just over $5.1 million.
Azora Capital LP went the other way, initiating a new position of 108,527 shares valued around $10.2 million.

They’re hardly alone. Vanguard, State Street, Geode and other giants have all reported meaningful positions, leaving roughly 93% of the float in institutional hands, according to multiple recent filings. ^[12]

Insiders: aggressive selling into strength

Against that institutional backdrop, insiders have been taking sizable profits: ^[13]

CTO Jeffrey Tsvi Pinner sold 5,865 shares on December 5 at an average price near $132.26, for proceeds of about $775,700. He’s also sold three similar‑sized blocks since September.
Earlier disclosures show CEO Vladimir Tenev, co‑founder Baiju Bhatt, and executives including Steven Quirk and Daniel Gallagher Jr. collectively selling roughly 3.7–4.1 million shares in the last 90 days, generating $475–$525 million in proceeds.
Even after those sales, insiders still own about 19.95% of the company—significant skin in the game, but the pace of selling has not gone unnoticed by the market.

A notable political buyer

Balancing out some of that insider selling, at least symbolically, is a high‑profile buyer:

U.S. Representative Jonathan L. Jackson (D‑Illinois) disclosed buying between $15,001 and $50,000 worth of HOOD shares on November 6 via a Morgan Stanley trust account, on top of an earlier Robinhood purchase disclosed for October. ^[14]

Congressional trades by themselves don’t make or break an investment thesis, but they add to the perception that HOOD has moved back into the mainstream of investable large‑cap fintech names.

Indonesia push: Robinhood targets a fast‑growing retail and crypto market

If Q3 earnings justified the rally, Robinhood’s Indonesia announcement is what’s keeping the growth story alive in December.

On December 8, Robinhood said it had agreed to acquire: ^[15]

PT Buana Capital Sekuritas, a local brokerage, and
PT Pedagang Aset Kripto, a licensed digital‑asset trader.

The deals are expected to close in the first half of 2026, subject to regulatory approval, and will give Robinhood an on‑the‑ground presence in Indonesia’s rapidly expanding retail investing market. Estimates cited across Reuters, Barron’s, the Financial Times and regional outlets point to: ^[16]

19+ million capital‑market investors
Around 17 million crypto traders
A young, mobile‑first population where more than half of new investors are under 30

One regional report framed the move as Robinhood “seizing a $280 billion fintech goldmine,” noting that HOOD shares rose roughly 3–3.4% on the announcement even as the broader market was mixed. ^[17]

In absolute terms, the Indonesian businesses are still tiny—Buana reportedly serves about 200 high‑net‑worth clients, and the local crypto platform currently has no customers. But the acquisitions give Robinhood: ^[18]

Regulatory licenses and a local team
A pipeline to integrate U.S. equities and global crypto access
A stepping stone for a broader Asia‑Pacific strategy anchored in Singapore, the U.K. and the EU

For a company whose revenue is still tightly linked to trading activity, entering one of the world’s most crypto‑active markets could meaningfully extend its growth runway—if it executes well and competition doesn’t intensify too quickly.

Crypto, prediction markets and the YES/NO bet

Crypto has quietly become one of Robinhood’s biggest growth engines. In its year‑in‑review update, the company highlighted roughly $232 billion in crypto notional trading volume over the 12 months through Q3 2025, about $1 billion in assets staked, and more than 45 supported digital assets. ^[19]

At the same time, Robinhood is leaning hard into event‑based trading:

Q3 2025 saw event contracts (its regulated “prediction market” products) more than double sequentially to 2.3 billion contracts, with October alone surpassing all of Q3. ^[20]
Prediction markets and its Bitstamp acquisition are each already contributing around $100 million in annualized revenue, according to management. ^[21]

To keep that momentum going, Robinhood has scheduled a branded “Robinhood Presents: YES/NO” keynote event on December 16 at Skywalker Ranch, positioning prediction markets as a core pillar of its platform alongside stocks, options and crypto. ^[22]

Taken together—record crypto volumes, event contracts, interest income and global expansion—the business model looks far more diversified than it did during the meme‑stock era, when transaction‑based revenue made up around 75% of the total. Nasdaq recently noted that this figure has fallen to roughly 55% over the first nine months of 2025 as newer lines ramp. ^[23]

Valuation debate: how much upside is left in HOOD stock?

The rally is real. So are the numbers. But the valuation debate around HOOD is intensifying—and that’s especially relevant on December 10, with the stock sitting close to its average analyst target.

The bull case

Supporters point to a long list of positives: ^[24]

Triple‑digit revenue growth: Q3 revenue up 100% YoY, net income up 271%, adjusted EBITDA up 177%.
Explosive engagement: Record trading volumes across equities, options and crypto, with October data showing equity notional volume up over 150% year over year and options contracts up more than 60%.
Deepening monetization: ARPU up 82% to $191, Robinhood Gold subscribers up 77%, and margin balances hitting record levels.
Global optionality: New business lines (banking, prediction markets, Bitstamp, Indonesia) each add potential revenue streams beyond traditional brokerage.

Zacks and other research shops continue to flag HOOD as a trending growth stock, citing its earnings momentum and improving fundamentals, while multiple sell‑side firms maintain buy or overweight ratings with targets well above current levels. ^[25]

The bear case

Skeptics, however, argue that a lot of good news is already priced in:

MarketBeat data puts Robinhood’s P/E ratio in the low‑to‑mid‑50s with a P/E/G ratio near 3, and a beta around 2.4, underscoring both rich valuation and high volatility. ^[26]
A widely cited Seeking Alpha piece summarized by TS2 Tech contends that, with HOOD up more than 270% YTD and now among the top S&P 500 performers, the upside may be limited if trading activity normalizes or crypto enthusiasm cools. ^[27]
Valuation models are flashing red: Simply Wall St’s recent work suggests Robinhood could be trading at more than 200% above its estimated fair value based on excess‑return and DCF analysis, while AlphaSpread pegs intrinsic value near $50 per share versus a market price in the mid‑$130s—implying 60%+ overvaluation. ^[28]

Even Nasdaq has framed HOOD’s current levels as a “sky‑high valuation” relative to the broader brokerage and asset‑management industry, noting that despite diversification, Robinhood remains heavily tied to trading volumes and sentiment‑driven flows. ^[29]

Then there is the insider‑selling overhang. While selling doesn’t automatically mean insiders are bearish—it can be tax or diversification‑driven—the sheer dollar amount sold into this rally gives cautious investors another reason to question how much upside is left without a pullback. ^[30]

What to watch next on December 10 and beyond

For traders and long‑term investors watching HOOD today, several near‑term catalysts and risk factors stand out:

November monthly metrics (due after the close)
Robinhood has scheduled its November 2025 Monthly Metrics release for 4:05 p.m. EST on December 10. That update will give the market fresh data on equity, options and crypto volumes, DARTs (daily average revenue trades), net deposits and more. A continued acceleration could justify the premium; any sign of slowdown might trigger profit‑taking. ^[31]
Regulatory progress on Indonesia and prediction markets
Investors will be watching how quickly regulators sign off on the Indonesia acquisitions and how smoothly Robinhood scales its event‑contract and prediction‑market business without running afoul of U.S. or international regulators. ^[32]
Macro and trading‑activity sensitivity
Robinhood is still highly sensitive to market volatility, interest rates and crypto sentiment. Any sharp reversal in risk appetite—whether from a macro shock, a Fed surprise, or a crypto drawdown—could hit both volumes and valuation. ^[33]
Ongoing insider and institutional flows
With insiders sitting on large gains and institutions owning over 90% of the float, future 13F filings and Form 4s will remain important sentiment signals. Persistent heavy insider selling or a notable institutional exit could weigh on the stock; additional large buyers could help support it. ^[34]

So… is HOOD stock a buy on December 10, 2025?

Whether Robinhood is a buy, hold or avoid at today’s prices ultimately comes down to risk appetite and time horizon:

For aggressive growth investors who believe Robinhood can sustain high double‑digit revenue growth, keep gaining share in options, crypto and prediction markets, and successfully execute its global expansion, HOOD remains a high‑beta lever on the continued boom in retail trading and digital assets.
For valuation‑sensitive or more conservative investors, the combination of a premium multiple, heavy insider selling, and models pointing to meaningful overvaluation may justify waiting for either a pullback or new fundamental data that pushes the earnings bar even higher.

Either way, December 10 is shaping up as an important checkpoint rather than the end of the story. The November metrics, the upcoming YES/NO event, and progress in Indonesia will all help determine whether Robinhood’s blockbuster 2025 becomes the new baseline—or the peak of an extraordinary cycle.
