Retail brokerage stocks Robinhood and Webull surged notably after Webull's CEO revealed a nearly 300% increase in retail buy orders for major cryptocurrencies following the June 4 repeal of the pattern day trader (PDT) rule. This rule change allowed more retail investors to trade cryptocurrencies actively, driving higher transaction volumes and boosting broker revenues. Despite minimal price movement in Bitcoin and Ethereum, broker stocks and related ETFs gained, reflecting increased trading activity rather than coin price changes. Investors will watch if this retail trading momentum sustains into upcoming earnings reports and year-end.
