Robinhood's stock jumped 27% over the last three trading sessions, reaching an intraday high of $94.25 on Friday. The share price remains about 17% lower year to date, but recent developments have pushed it more than 30% higher over the past month. The surge followed a busy week of product launches tied to two headline themes: Trump and artificial intelligence.

The stock rose nearly 3% on Wednesday after Robinhood said users could connect AI agents to help manage and automate trades, then climbed more than 11% on Thursday when the company rolled out the Trump Accounts app. Trump Accounts are tax-advantaged investment accounts for American children born between 2025 and 2028; families with an eligible child can receive a $1,000 initial contribution from the US Treasury Department.

The stock added another 8% on Friday after the company’s CFO, Shiv Verma, said states have expressed interest in replicating the Trump Accounts platform.
