Robinhood Markets, Inc. (HOOD) is a Great Momentum Stock: Should You Buy?
Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock's recent trend in either direction. In "long context," investors will be essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.While many investors like to look for momentum in stocks, this can be very tough to define. There is a lot of debate surrounding which metrics are the best to focus on and which are poor quality indicators of future performance. The Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.Below, we take a look at Robinhood Markets, Inc. (HOOD), a company that currently holds a Momentum Style Score of A. We also talk about price change and earnings estimate revisions, two of the main aspects of the Momentum Style Score.It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Robinhood Markets, Inc. currently has a Zacks Rank of #1 (Strong Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of "A or B" outperform the market over the following one-month period.You can see the current list of Zacks #1 Rank Stocks here >>> Set to Beat the Market? In order to see if HOOD is a promising momentum pick, let's examine some Momentum Style elements to see if this company holds up.A good momentum benchmark for a stock is to look at its short-term price activity, as this can reflect both current interest and if buyers or sellers currently have the upper hand. It's also helpful to compare a security to its industry; this can show investors the best companies in a particular area.For HOOD, shares are up 8.48% over the past week while the Zacks Financial - Investment Bank industry is up 1.75% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 23.2% compares favorably with the industry's 1.95% performance as well.While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Shares of Robinhood Markets, Inc. have increased 29.41% over the past quarter, and have gained 466.32% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&P 500 has only moved 9.31% and 17.01%, respectively.Investors should also pay attention to HOOD's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. HOOD is currently averaging 45,786,600 shares for the last 20 days.Earnings OutlookThe Zacks Momentum Style Score also takes into account trends in estimate revisions, in addition to price changes. Please note that estimate revision trends remain at the core of Zacks Rank as well. A nice path here can help show promise, and we have recently been seeing that with HOOD.Over the past two months, 5 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost HOOD's consensus estimate, increasing from $1.31 to $1.61 in the past 60 days.
