Here’s a quick rundown of what investors should track in the stock and the company. ## Will Robinhood Cheer Investors? Analysts expect the commission-free brokerage platform to announce earnings per share of $0.41, down 2.3% year-over-year, but up 7.89% from the first quarter. Robinhood is also expected to report revenue of $1.21 billion, up 22% from $989 million reported in the same quarter last year.

Typically, short interest below 5% is viewed as a sign of minimal bearish sentiment. Traders were buying significantly more call options than put options, according to the put-call ratio, suggesting aggressive upside speculation. ## Robinhood Chain: The Game Changer? Cryptocurrencies accounted for 21% of Robinhood’s first-quarter transaction-based revenue, even as its slice of the pie fell sharply from a year ago. Earlier this month, the company launched Robinhood Chain, an **Ethereum** (CRYPTO: ETH) Layer 2 designed to support tokenized stock trading, decentralized finance and AI agents. The network has already attracted deposits worth $335 million, according to DeFi analytics platform DeFiLlama. Most chains, including **Ethereum** (CRYPTO: ETH) and **Solana** (CRYPTO: SOL), have seen their metrics drop in this period. **Price Action**: Robinhood shares fell 0.54% in after-hours trading after closing 0.78% higher at $95.65 during Tuesday’s regular trading session. Year-to-date, the stock has plunged 15.43%. LLY maintains a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long terms with a poor value ranking, according to Benzinga’s Edge Stock Rankings. **Read Also: 'The World's Most Powerful Network': X Money Rolls Out, Challenging Venmo, Robinhood, Apple Pay** _Photo courtesy: Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [HOOD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOD.US.md) - [ROBN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ROBN.US.md) - [HOOX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOX.US.md) - [HOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOG.US.md) - [HODU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HODU.US.md) - [HOOI.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOI.US.md) - [HOOW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOW.US.md) - [HOOY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOY.US.md) - [HOOZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOOZ.US.md) - [HOYY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HOYY.US.md) - [LLY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/LLY.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [HOOD Could Rally 85% as Tokenization, Prediction Markets Fuel Crypto Growth: Bernstein](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294528061.md) - [Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev Says Trump Administration Crypto-Friendly, But Regulatory Clarity Needed So That the Floor Doesn't Shift 'Every Four Years'](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294308342.md) - [Robinhood to list a fund that lets anyone back Y Combinator startups](https://longbridge.com/en/news/294967330.md) - [Bank of New York Mellon Corp Has $258.72 Million Holdings in Robinhood Markets, Inc. $HOOD](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293091641.md) - [Piar LLC Has $1.51 Million Stock Holdings in Robinhood Markets, Inc. $HOOD](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293325767.md)
