Robinhood Social becomes available to everyone

Robinhood made Robinhood Social available to everyone the previous night. The feature lets users share ideas with the broader community and follow traders, creators and politicians. Robinhood says the trades and profit-and-loss figures shown on the platform are validated and real, and users can place a trade directly from an idea.

The company said it has not yet launched an investment-club feature that would let friends pool money. A representative said there is room to innovate around such arrangements.
