Robinhood Markets, Inc. (HOOD) on Decifer

Why it ranks here

Revenue is growing about 52% a year and profits grew 32% over the past year.
It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, with profitability widening as it grows.
It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
And it returns cash to shareholders.
Its profit margin and growth are both unusually high right now compared to its own history, the kind of combination that often fades once conditions normalize.
