Robinhood connects to Trump's children's investment account program, HOOD rises 11.29%

Robinhood's stock price rose by 11.29% due to the official launch of the U.S. government-supported "Trump Accounts" children's investment account application.

According to the announcement, eligible U.S. children under the age of 18 can open tax-advantaged investment accounts. Children born between 2025 and 2028 with a valid Social Security number will receive an initial funding of $1,000 provided by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and family members and employers can contribute an additional total of up to $5,000 each year.

Robinhood Securities will serve as the initial trustee for the program, responsible for managing account assets. Account funds will be automatically invested in low-cost index funds, and users can view investment performance and account growth through the App. The program is expected to officially launch on July 4, 2026.
