As the stock market continues to evolve in 2025 amid tariff uncertainty, two companies stand out as prime candidates to break the $100 per share barrier and potentially climb higher: Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:) and Roblox (NYSE:). Both companies have demonstrated remarkable growth driven by innovative business models, expanding user bases, and strategic initiatives that position them for long-term success.
Here’s a closer look at the factors driving their growth and why investors are optimistic about their future trajectories.
1. Robinhood: The Future of Retail Investing
Robinhood has transformed from a controversial trading app into a diversified financial services platform with multiple growth vectors that could propel its stock toward the $100 mark and beyond.

Currently trading at around $72 per share, HOOD has staged a jaw-dropping 228.4% one-year rally, leaving skeptics in the dust. Its momentum is no accident: the app’s 25.9 million funded accounts, aggressive expansion into banking and advisory, and a crypto business that’s surfing the wave have all moved the needle.
The company’s financial health is rated ‘GREAT’ (score: 3.18), as per InvestingPro, with revenue exploding 58.2% last year and forecast to jump another 22.0%.
Analysts are tripping over each other to raise targets. Piper Sandler just reaffirmed a $70 target, Needham is at $71, and the high estimate for HOOD is a skyscraping $105.00. The mean sits at $62.08—but with the price already above that, the market’s betting on more fireworks.

Latest moves—like acquiring Toronto-based cryptocurrency firm WonderFi and launching ’Robinhood Legend’ in the UK—show a company intent on global domination, not just U.S. disruption. The biggest risk? Regulatory curveballs and breakneck volatility. But with a user base that skews young and tech-savvy, Robinhood is positioned to capture market share from traditional brokerages like Charles Schwab (NYSE:) and Fidelity.
Why $100+ is Achievable:
Robinhood’s unique position in the retail investing space, combined with its growing user base and expanding product suite, makes it a strong candidate to reach $100 and beyond. As the platform continues to innovate and attract new users, its stock price is likely to reflect its long-term potential.
2. Roblox: Building and Monetizing the Metaverse
Roblox has established itself as a unique entertainment platform that blends gaming, social interaction, and creator economics. Its potential to reach the $100 per share threshold and well beyond is supported by several compelling growth drivers, and Wall Street is finally catching on.

Currently at about $90/share, RBLX stock’s 171.3% one-year surge is powered by a string of earnings beats, furious platform expansion, and the rollout of new revenue streams from advertising to e-commerce.
InvestingPro rates Roblox’s financial health as ‘FAIR’ (score: 2.36), with revenue growth at 28.7% last year and a forecast to accelerate to 48.8%. With daily active users (DAUs) approaching 100 million and significant growth in engagement hours, Roblox’s innovative monetization strategies make it a compelling growth story.
Analysts are overwhelmingly bullish, with 21 Buy ratings and a median price target of $75.88, though recent upgrades from JPMorgan and Citi raised targets to $100, reflecting confidence in the company’s long-term outlook. With adjusted EPS still negative, Roblox is a classic “grow now, profit later” story—like Amazon (NASDAQ:) in its early days, but for the metaverse.

Roblox’s secret sauce: relentless user growth (+26% daily actives), ever-expanding platform partnerships, and AI-fueled content creation that keeps engagement (and spending) rising. Risks? It’s still unprofitable and faces fierce competition, but the market is betting on scale, not stasis.
Why $100+ is Achievable:
Roblox’s leadership in the metaverse, combined with its strong user engagement and growing monetization efforts, positions it well to break the $100 barrier, with room for further appreciation. As the metaverse gains traction and Roblox continues to innovate, its stock price has significant upside potential.
Conclusion: $100 Is a Milestone, Not a Ceiling
Robinhood and Roblox are already flirting with the century mark —and with both companies riding secular growth waves (crypto, creator economy, digital finance), $100 feels less like a finish line and more like a pit stop.
For investors looking to capitalize on long-term trends like retail investing and virtual worlds, HOOD and RBLX offer compelling opportunities.
