Court: S.D. Florida

Case: 1:23-cv-23057

The lawsuit filed by investors against Robinhood has been dismissed, officially closing the case.

On January 29, 2021, while other brokers lifted stock purchase restrictions, Robinhood continued to restrict purchases and expanded restrictions to more stocks, which impacted market prices.

The company’s actions were claimed to have distorted bid-offer pricing mechanisms and contributed to investment losses for those holding call options on stocks like , , , , , and .

On April 6, 2023, shareholders brought a claim against Robinhood, which has now been dismissed.

Given the current upbeat market performance, it is difficult for retail investors to choose stocks independently and generate solid returns. To do this, one needs to understand the company fundamentals and try to place them against the current economic background to figure out how the stock may fare as an investment.

One way to cut short this task is to follow brokers’ recommendations. Stocks like Twilio Inc. TWLO, American Airlines Group Inc. AAL and Klaviyo, Inc. KVYO are worth betting on.

As brokers directly communicate with top management, they have more insight into what is happening in a particular company. They assess a company’s publicly available documents and even attend conference calls.

Brokers have more understanding of the overall sector and industry. They place company fundamentals against the current economic backdrop to determine how a particular stock will fare as an investment.

When brokers upgrade a stock, one can easily rely on their judgment. Yet, depending on broker upgrades is not enough to build your investment portfolio. Several other factors should be taken into account to ensure steady returns.
