Robinhood opened at an IPO price of $38 and was valued at $32 billion on the 29th of July, 2021. $HOOD only rallied for a few days after its IPO to reach an all-time high on the 4th of August 2021 at $85.10. The first 5 trading days were the best days for $HOOD investors. Price closed yesterday at $15.17, making it the worst close since its launch on NASDAQ in July 2021. $HOOD has lost 56% in value from the IPO since it currently trades lower than the IPO price of $15.17. This is a huge disaster for Robinhood investors. The current market cap of $HOOD is $12.67 billion. Since its launch in the stock exchange at IPO price to date, $HOOD has lost $25.33 billion. Robinhood has only been trading in the exchange for just 7months.
Before its IPO, the company had seen massive growth despite the pandemic. Many first-time investors who were given stimulus checks invested in the stock market using Robinhood. As at that time, Robinhood had more than 18 million accounts and 17.7 million active monthly users. Robinhood had 22.5 million active users in 2021. On the daily chart, RSI has shown that the price has been oversold since November 2021. There have been many complaints from Robinhood customers over the inability to place a sell order or to a close position despite losses. We are hoping $HOOD doesn’t get to the point of being delisted from the NASDAQ.
