What’s fueling HOOD momentum? ## What’s Driving Robinhood’s April Revenue Growth? Robinhood reported April Total Securities Lending Revenue of $32 million, down 3% from March 2026 but up 28% year-over-year. The company also said this figure includes Securities Lending net revenues of $3 million, and noted the monthly metrics are unaudited and preliminary. Robinhood is also leaning into new product surfaces that could expand engagement beyond daily trading, including a push to broaden access to private-company exposure. Management has framed that effort as a way to bring the same accessibility from public markets into private investing. ## Critical Price Levels To Watch For HOOD From a trend perspective, HOOD is trying to build a base: it's trading 6.3% above its 50-day SMA ($76.57) and has the 20-day SMA above the 50-day SMA (a near-term bullish crossover). The longer-term picture is still a repair job, with the stock 7.1% below its 100-day SMA ($87.65) and 22.8% below its 200-day SMA ($105.51), and the death cross that printed in February still hanging over the chart. Momentum looks more "range-bound than stretched" right now, with RSI at 48.13 (neutral). RSI is a quick read on whether buying or selling pressure is getting overextended, and this level suggests the stock has room to move either way without being technically overheated. - **Key Resistance**: $93.50 — a nearby rebound-stall zone that also lines up with the stock needing to reclaim the area below its 100-day trend gauges - **Key Support**: $70.00 — a round-number level that sits below current price and can act as a reference point if the recent base attempt fails ## Robinhood Analyst Consensus: $105 Price Target **Analyst Consensus & Recent Actions:** The stock carries a Buy rating with an average price target of $105.81. Recent analyst moves include: - **Argus Research**: Buy (Lowers Target to $90.00) (April 30) - **Citizens**: Market Outperform (Maintains Target to $155.00) (April 29) - **Cantor Fitzgerald**: Overweight (Maintains Target to $110.00) (April 29) ## Robinhood Markets Benzinga Edge Scorecard Breakdown Below is the Benzinga Edge scorecard for Robinhood Markets, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses compared to the broader market: - **Momentum**: Weak (Score: 19.63) — The stock's recent tape is lagging, which fits with price still sitting well below the 200-day moving average. - **Value**: Weak (Score: 20.4) — A premium-style valuation profile leaves less room for error if growth expectations cool. - **Growth**: Bullish (Score: 92.33) — The market is still rewarding the company's longer-run expansion story versus many peers. **The Verdict:** Robinhood Markets’s Benzinga Edge signal reveals a growth-heavy profile with weak momentum and weak value characteristics. For longer-term bulls, the setup improves most if the stock can reclaim the $93.50 area and start rebuilding above the 100-day/200-day trend lines. ## HOOD Stock Price Movement On Thursday **HOOD Stock Price Activity:** Robinhood Markets shares were up 5.76% at $81.17 at the time of publication on Thursday, according to Benzinga Pro data. **Read Also: S&P 500 Hits Record 7,500, Dow Crosses 50,000 As Cisco, Nvidia Power AI Rally: Stock Market Today** _Image: Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [HOOD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOD.US.md) - [HOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOG.US.md) - [HOOX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOX.US.md) - [ROBN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ROBN.US.md) - [.SPX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/.SPX.US.md) - [.DJI.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/.DJI.US.md) - [CSCO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CSCO.US.md) - [NVDA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [NVD.DE](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVD.DE.md) ## Related News & Research - [Why HOOD May Stand To Lose From Congress's Prediction Market Bill Frenzy](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286920204.md) - [Assessing Robinhood Markets (HOOD) Valuation As Shares Lose Momentum After Strong Profitability Update](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286751604.md) - [Robinhood jumps 5% as April trading data impresses analysts](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286631464.md) - [North Dakota State Investment Board Takes Position in Robinhood Markets, Inc. $HOOD](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286885809.md) - [UPI changed how India pays; it can drive the future of borrowing](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286677065.md)
