Late Tuesday, Robinhood Markets (HOOD) said its board of directors approved a $1 billion share repurchase program, which has its shares trading cautiously higher in Wednesday's trading session.
Robinhood said it expects the share repurchases to take place over a two- to three-year period beginning in the third quarter of 2024. This will depend "on general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities," the company said in a statement, adding that management "plans to vary the pace of capital deployment depending on share price."
