Robinhood has been in the spotlight recently, with the company announcing its first investor day scheduled for December 4, 2024. The event, to be held in New York City, will be live-streamed and will provide an opportunity for the company to share its vision for the next decade. The announcement of the investor day had initially led to a surge in Robinhood’s stock price.

Earlier in the year, Robinhood reported impressive second-quarter earnings, with a 40% year-over-year increase in revenue and a significant 161% increase in crypto revenue. The platform also reached a milestone of 2 million Gold subscribers. Despite these positive developments, Ark has been on a Robinhood selling spree. It’s worth noting that Ark Invest had previously dumped $36 million worth of Robinhood stock earlier this month.
