AI summary
What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting
Regulators advanced two key paths for Robinhood: the CFTC allowed passive software to connect users to regulated derivatives and prediction markets, while the SEC opened a five-year window for tokenized U.S. stocks. Robinhood has tested tokenized shares overseas and could expand domestically if the framework proves practical, especially after the CLARITY Act faltered in the Senate. The stock rose as investors priced in faster access to digital-asset trading and broader platform capabilities.

SEC opens five-year window for tokenized U.S. stocks; HOOD eyes domestic path.
HOOD up 8.58% to $119.23 amid rally in crypto-linked equities.
