Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev Builds Apocalypse Squad — 150 Top Performers Picked To Rebuild Company If Disaster Strikes

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) CEO Vlad Tenev has established an exclusive founders club comprising the company's 150 best-performing employees across all levels, designed to serve as a strategic rebuild team in catastrophic scenarios. Elite Performance Community Speaking on the 'Cheeky Pint' podcast published on Wednesday, Tenev revealed the secretive group's purpose. 'If there was a disaster or some kind of apocalyptic scenario, and we had to rebuild Robinhood with 150 people, you would be in that group,' he told inductees. The community initially focused on compensation for top performers but evolved into an 'actual community' that provides strategic input. Tenev conducts regular strategy sessions, city-based events, and dinners with members. Trending: The same firms that backed Uber, Venmo and eBay are investing in this pre-IPO company disrupting a $1.8T market — Cross-Level Impact Focus Unlike traditional executive circles, the founders club spans organizational levels.

The trading platform, which went public in 2021, employs 2,300 full-time staff as of December. Tenev confirmed the company 'very much' concentrates promotions within top performers and rewards exceptional employees well.

If You'd Invested $500 in The Trade Desk Stock 5 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today

Key Points The Trade Desk's stock is pretty much back where it was five years ago. The business results are strong, but forward-looking guidance points to a modest slowdown. At 9 times sales, The Trade Desk trades at a fraction of its former nosebleed valuations while maintaining strong fundamentals. 10 stocks we like better than The Trade Desk › Digital advertising veteran The Trade Desk (NASDAQ: TTD) used to be hot stuff. In early December 2024, the stock had posted a market-stomping 156% gain in two years. The stock traded at market-darling valuation multiples such as 134 times free cash flow and 30 times sales. The Trade Desk made mighty Nvidia's (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock look affordable by comparison. But things have changed. The Trade Desk's recent earnings reports have been robust, but they were accompanied by a sobering market analysis and modest forward-looking guidance. The brutal market reaction wiped out several years of The Trade Desk's investor gains. So if you invested $500 in The Trade Desk five years ago, that position would be worth just $576 today: The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) market index more than doubled over the same period, in terms of total returns. That's an above-average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6% versus The Trade Desk's anemic 2.9%. Silver lining of the reality check These days, you can buy The Trade Desk's stock at a less outrageous valuation of 33 times free cash flow and 9 times sales. If the stock price doubled today, the shares would still carry lower valuation multiples than Nvidia's 62 times free cash flow and 30 times sales. Mind you, The Trade Desk is still far from a deep-discount value stock. These multiples are appropriate for a fast-growing business addressing a large target market. And I would argue that The Trade Desk fits that description. Its sales have been soaring for years, and free cash flows are richer than ever: The company's near-term outlook has been less bullish in recent quarters, but management still expects roughly 14% sales growth in the third-quarter report. This growth story is far from over. The 2025 stock price cuts simply made this top-notch company more affordable. Should you buy stock in The Trade Desk right now?
