Meanwhile, insiders are selling a stock that received a slew of analyst upgrades last month, as well as a growing chip company with ties to NVIDIA. NASDAQ: NVDA.

Robinhood Markets NASDAQ: HOOD had a rough start to 2026, falling more than 25% annually. Shares are also down about 45% from their 52-week high. It should come as no surprise that the leading crypto asset Bitcoin is also down nearly 50% from its 52-week high and down more than 25% in 2026.
Robinhood has moved into many markets outside of crypto, including equity and options trading, retirement accounts, subscriptions, and prediction markets. However, its share price performance remains closely linked to crypto performance, for better or for worse.
During its fall, Robinhood saw a significant increase in insider purchases during Q2 2026. In total, MarketBeat tracked $35 million worth of insider purchases during the quarter after seeing none since Q2 2025.
Meanwhile, domestic sales remain slightly higher in Q2 2026 at $42 million. However, in reality all of these sales came under the pre-determined 10b5-1 programs, which limited their negative effects. Additionally, as purchases have increased significantly, sales have decreased significantly. In Q3 and Q4 2025, domestic sales topped $1 billion combined.
Overall, the combination of falling insider sales and renewed insider buying is a strong indicator for Robinhood going forward. This is especially true considering Robinhood’s depressed share price.

Snowflake also ranked as one of MarketBeat’s top three most improved stocks of the past month—along with two other key AI names. Despite its recent surge, Snowflake’s overall return in 2026 isn’t overly impressive, sitting at less than 10%.
Still, it’s worth noting that insider trading has increased following Snowflake’s big post-funding move. Among the $338 million in internal sales tracked in Q2, $288 million came after the company reported. However, most of these sales were also below 10b5-1 plans, and reduced their bearish signal.
In addition, many of these sales involved the exercise of stock options followed by subsequent sales.
For example, Director Frank Slootman exercised options at $8.88 per share and then sold shares at $250 or more. Thus, Slootman generated huge profits, minimizing the impact that future moves would have on his overall profits. However, total sales increased almost threefold from $114 million in Q1. Overall, Snowflake’s crude sales volume is about moderate despite the mitigating factors.
Inside NVIDIA-Partnered Navitas Dump Shares
Lastly is Navitas Semiconductor NASDAQ: NVTSwhich has increased by more than 200% by 2026. This comes as Navitas is NVIDIA’s partner for the company’s 800 volts direct current (VDC) power push power center.

The purpose of this is to reduce the number of conversions required to make grid power used in artificial intelligence (AI) server racks. In turn, the energy efficiency of the data center should increase. Notably, Navitas recently introduced its 800V-to-6V DC-DC power supply board, designed for use in NVIDIA applications. Shares rose nearly 20% later.
Still, as Navitas shares made huge gains, insider sales also rose sharply. In all, MarketBeat tracked domestic sales of $116 million, the company’s highest quarterly sales in the past three years. None of these sales have been subject to 105b-1 filings, though they came before the company released its new board of directors that sent shares soaring.
Many of these insiders continue to hold very large positions at Navitas. For example, despite selling over 3.6 million shares, Director Ranbir Singh still holds nearly 15 million shares in Navitas. Overall, the recent selloff surrounding Navitas is a strong bearish sign — although its NVIDIA relationship is hard to ignore.
Analyst Eye Recovery on Robinhood Despite Wide Price Target Spread

However, it is worth noting that the forecasts vary widely, with the most recently revised targets up to $155 and up to $65.
