  "account": "Robinhood's stock prices soared on Wednesday, as Wall Street analysts applauded the online brokerage's ambitious expansion into AI-powered trading agents, crypto perpetual futures, and round-the-clock stock trading. Executives unveiled these features at the company's HOOD Summit, aiming to elevate Robinhood from a beginner-focused platform to one appealing to sophisticated, active traders. Morgan Stanley analyst Michael Cyprys reiterated an \"Overweight\" rating and a $150 price target, while Deutsche Bank analyst Brian Bedell maintained a \"Buy\" rating and a $134 price target, both citing the new tools as key drivers of customer engagement and long-term growth. The AI-powered \"Robinhood Agents\" have already attracted over 150,000 users, making nearly 30 million daily queries. Premium analysis tools via Agent Apps, spanning Nasdaq, Unusual Whales, and SpotGamma, will be offered through monthly subscriptions. In addition, crypto perpetual futures targeting U.S. users with up to 10x leverage on Bitcoin and Ether, and around-the-clock trading for select equities on weekends, are set to launch pending regulatory approval. Advanced order types, such as intraday margin and Cboe-backed binary options, will also be introduced. Despite not discussing tokenization or on-chain initiatives, Morgan Stanley emphasized that Robinhood's active-trader package exceeded expectations, reducing friction for complex strategies and extending the hours in which capital can move. Analysts believe these expansions will help Robinhood capture a larger share of trading activity and support further monetization, ultimately deepening user engagement and supporting sustained growth.",
