Watch for Fed Volatility

12:31 pm
by Eric Bleeker

Jerome Powell is holding a press conference at 2:30 to discuss the Federal Open Market Committee’s July interest-rate decision.

Betting markets are placing a 99% chance that the Fed will leave rates unchanged, but commentary from Powell and other details will be important. There’s a chance that multiple Fed governors will vote against keeping rates locked.

The big picture: even without a rate cut, there could be significant volatility late in the trading day. If Robinhood shares are moving, it’s likely unrelated to traders making earnings bets and more related to big money movements after Powell’s press conference.

We already detailed what Robinhood reported in Q1, so let’s take a look at what Wall Street expects them to report this quarter.

What Wall Street Expects from Robinhood’s Q2

• Revenue: $913.3 million
• Adjusted EPS: $.35
• Free Cash Flow: $253.5 million

Robinhood’s forward guidance has been centered around operating expenses in the past, but Wall Street currently expects the third quarter to be relatively flat.

Wall Street Expectations for Robinhood’s Q3

• Revenue: $931 million
• Adjusted EPS: $.35
• Free Cash Flow: $291.5 million

Any commentary from Robinhood that could cause Wall Street to take up expectations for next quarter could likely lead to more share growth in the coming weeks.

It’s important to note that we’ve seen many stocks this earnings season that had seen strong share gains into earnings fall even after surpassing earnings. With Robinhood shares up 162% so far this year, the company will likely need to surpass expectations by a healthy margin for shares to ‘pop’ after hours tonight.

Shares of Robinhood (Nasdaq: HOOD) have been on absolute fire recently. Shares are up 162% so far in 2025, and 387% in the past year. In fact, shares of Robinhood now trade for more than 10X what they were worth in late 2023!
