Rothera’s CFTC approval to offer football contracts, combined with World Cup-driven prediction-volume, suggests a meaningful near-term revenue boost for HOOD’s prediction markets. Piper Sandler raises 2026/2027 EPS and boosts the price target to $145 as HOOD gains share versus Kalshi, supported by an anticipated 3Q26–4Q26 ramp. However, success hinges on football participation and competitive dynamics.
