Robinhood stock: JPMorgan raises target to $130 after mixed Q3

Robinhood reported a mixed third quarter, with a crypto shortfall highlighted in the CoinDesk coverage from Nov 7, 2025, even as core metrics supported the company and Robinhood stock closed the session near $127.

What drove the quarter and robinhood crypto revenue?

Crypto net revenue came in at $268 million, while the crypto fee rate slipped to 67 basis points, a clear miss versus consensus estimates. Meanwhile, adjusted earnings per share beat by roughly 15%, largely because of a lower tax rate tied to stock-based compensation after the stock’s recent rally.

That rally has been significant: the share price rose about 52% ahead of this update, and shares closed around $127 after the report. However, the crypto shortfall underscored pressure on fee-based margins and a need for pricing stability in digital-asset trading.

How did jpmorgan Robinhood analysis change the robinhood price target?

JPMorgan raised its price target to $130 from $122, citing stronger-than-expected volumes in crypto and prediction markets despite the revenue miss. That said, analysts led by Kenneth Worthington flagged that a portion of the upside reflected tax-driven benefits rather than underlying operating strength, tempering the quality of the beat.

What is the updated price target?

The new target of $130 reflects JPMorgan’s view that improved trading margins and engagement could support valuation if crypto trends stabilize. Moreover, the bank expects margins to continue improving, although it kept a neutral rating pending clearer evidence of sustainable revenue growth.

Do robinhood prediction markets affect the outlook?

Prediction markets provided some offset to the crypto weakness, but the segment depends on a small group of active traders and remains marginal to total revenue. Investors should therefore treat prediction markets as supplementary rather than a core growth engine.

Robust analysis matters here: as CoinDesk noted, “JPMorgan called Robinhood’s quarter solid but lower quality,” which captures the trade-off between headline beats and their drivers (CoinDesk report). Furthermore, the company’s own Q3 results provide the primary figures and context in the Robinhood earnings release.

In practice, modelers should weigh the material tax benefit that lifted EPS against the underlying crypto revenue dynamics. Consequently, updates to forecasts should separate one-off tax effects from operational gains to produce a clearer picture of future profitability. Finally, market participants will watch how management navigates fee rates and prediction-market concentration when assessing longer-term upside.

Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference

The post Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The suitcoiners are in town.  From a low-key, circular podium in the middle of a lavish New York City event hall, Strategy executive chairman Michael Saylor took the mic and opened the Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference event. He joked awkwardly about the orange ties, dresses, caps and other merch to the (mostly male) audience of who’s-who in the bitcoin treasury company world.  Once he got onto the regular beat, it was much of the same: calm and relaxed, speaking freely and with confidence, his keynote was heavy on the metaphors and larger historical stories. Treasury companies are like Rockefeller’s Standard Oil in its early years, Michael Saylor said: We’ve just discovered crude oil and now we’re making sense of the myriad ways in which we can use it — the automobile revolution and jet fuel is still well ahead of us.  Established, trillion-dollar companies not using AI because of “security concerns” make them slow and stupid — just like companies and individuals rejecting digital assets now make them poor and weak.  “I’d like to think that we understood our business five years ago; we didn’t.”  We went from a defensive investment into bitcoin, Saylor said, to opportunistic, to strategic, and finally transformational; “only then did we realize that we were different.” Michael Saylor: You Come Into My Financial History House?! Jokes aside, Michael Saylor is very welcome to the warm waters of our financial past. He acquitted himself honorably by invoking the British Consol — though mispronouncing it, and misdating it to the 1780s; Pelham’s consolidation of debts happened in the 1750s and perpetual government debt existed well before then — and comparing it to the gold standard and the future of bitcoin. He’s right that Strategy’s STRC product in many ways imitates the consols; irredeemable, perpetual debt, issued at par, with…
