Webull Stock Plummets After Major Block Trade Hits Market

New York, NY – October 8, 2025 – Webull Corp. faced a sharp decline in its stock price today, dropping by 6.3% after a significant block trade involved 3 million Class A shares. The transaction, valued at $37.5 million and executed at a discount, raised investor concerns and accentuated ongoing volatility for the online brokerage firm.

This decline followed a 6.6% drop from the previous day, signaling a period of intense selling pressure for Webull. The block trade, executed at $12.50 per share, represented a 2.3% discount from the previous day’s closing price and accounted for about 1.3% of Webull’s public float.

The event marks the third substantial block trade for Webull in just two weeks, totaling 3.1 million shares with a combined market value of $43.8 million. These transactions coincided with the expiration of a lock-up period, allowing approximately 455.6 million shares held by existing shareholders to become available for sale, prompting speculation that institutional investors might be reducing their positions.

Investors reacted quickly, leading to the stock’s decline, but retail sentiment on platforms like Stocktwits showed a contrasting perspective, with discussions becoming “extremely bullish.” Message volumes surged over 225%, as many trading enthusiasts considered the decline a potential buying opportunity, believing insiders would not sell at such lower prices.

Despite the market turbulence, Webull reported a global user base of 24 million and is projected to experience annual revenue growth of over 25% through 2027. This suggests that the recent stock performance may be more linked to structural events rather than a decline in the company’s core business.

The impact of the block trade is multifaceted, raising concerns for existing shareholders while presenting potential opportunities for opportunistic investors who view the current dip as a chance to enter the market.

Looking forward, Webull management’s focus will likely be on stabilizing the stock price and restoring investor confidence amid these fluctuations.
