Robinhood stock set for a holiday week test as HOOD traders eye fresh monthly metrics

New York, Feb 15, 2026, 10:56 EST — The market has shut for the day.

  • Robinhood stock finished Friday’s session 6.8% higher, closing at $75.97.
  • U.S. stock markets will be closed Monday for Presidents Day, giving HOOD traders an extended break.
  • Robinhood’s January monthly metrics are set for release on Feb. 19, giving investors something to track ahead of the brokerage’s “Take Flight” product keynote scheduled for March 4.

Robinhood Markets shares finished Friday up 6.8% at $75.97. Still, it capped off a turbulent week, with investors now searching for the next signal on trading volumes and deposit flows.

No chance for the stock to face that test on Monday—U.S. equity markets are taking a break for Presidents Day. The next trading session lands on Tuesday, so the week gets squeezed.

This is notable: Robinhood has been acting as a high-beta stand-in for retail risk, its price swings echoing volatility in crypto and trading activity. “Traders sell first and ask questions later,” Dennis Dick, chief market strategist at Stock Trader Network, said this week. Brokerage stocks have been tumbling, with AI-disruption worries driving the drop. Reuters

U.S. stocks found firmer ground Friday, buoyed by a mild inflation print that took some heat off yields and let a few names that had slumped claw back some ground.

Robinhood shares slid in after-hours trading earlier this week after the company’s quarterly revenue fell short of Wall Street’s forecast, with crypto trading numbers lagging. Finance chief Shiv Verma explained to Reuters that because most active users fell into Robinhood’s lowest crypto pricing tier, the resulting rebate rate disappointed some observers’ expectations.

Robinhood called 2025 a “record year” in its earnings release, highlighting $68.1 billion in net deposits in the past 12 months and 4.2 million Gold subscribers, with revenue, volumes, and profits all hitting new highs. Newly named CFO Verma, who started on Feb. 6, said, “2026 is off to a strong start,” pointing to the company’s push for “profitable growth” and rolling out “great products.” Nasdaq

The company pointed to early January numbers: $4.5 billion in net deposits, a margin book hitting a record $18.4 billion, and 200 million options contracts changing hands. Those options, each generally standing for 100 shares, formed part of the action. Robinhood also breaks out “event contracts,” which are linked to outcomes through its prediction-markets hub. Nasdaq

In the statement, CEO Vlad Tenev described Robinhood’s latest move as part of efforts to create a “Financial SuperApp,” aiming to expand further from just trading to a wider lineup of products. Nasdaq

Robinhood’s “Take Flight” keynote lands March 4, with CEO Vlad Tenev and executives set to host the livestreamed product reveal. Before that, the company will roll out some limited-time promotions beginning Feb. 19—which also happens to be when Robinhood is scheduled to update investors on its January metrics. MarketScreener

Robinhood is targeting Feb. 19 at 4:05 p.m. EST for its January monthly metrics update, a release traders watch closely for signals on customer activity and net inflows between earnings cycles.

The setup comes with risks on both sides. Robinhood, in its filings, flagged that transaction-driven revenue can be volatile — especially because of payment for order flow, where brokers are paid by market makers for steering trades their way. Any move by regulators or potential bans on this practice could force Robinhood to rethink its approach. The company also highlighted uncertainties around its newer crypto fee structure, plus the regulatory environment for event contracts.

Investors are set to track HOOD’s performance when trading resumes Tuesday. Next up: January metrics drop on Feb. 19, with eyes also on any product news before the March 4 event.
