Robinhood Markets’ stock fell more than 10% on Feb. 2, 2026, following a weekend cryptocurrency sell-off and weaker retail trading and options activity, highlighting the company’s exposure to digital-asset volatility and shifts in retail behavior.

Crypto Market Decline Pressured Shares

A pre-event note on Feb. 2 highlighted that Robinhood’s revenue had doubled year over year while also noting its valuation.
