Bearish RBLX thesis by valuewithnina

RBLX - Roblox Corporation - Class A - Communication Services

I’m taking a bearish view on RBLX at 56.09. Nobody needs a reminder of how hot it ran last summer, but the chart says it all: from over 100 in July and August down to the mid 50s now. People got way over their skis with growth expectations, and reality caught up quickly in Q4 and Q1. RBLX has done nothing but grind lower the last six months, and there’s not much in the numbers that makes me think the bleeding is done yet.

Yes, there’s still strong engagement among the younger crowd, but paying user growth has cooled off and bookings per DAU haven’t found a floor. I keep seeing ambitious talk about monetizing older users, but honestly, I’m not convinced the pivot is working. If ad spend stays soft and they fail to rein in costs, cash burn will stay front and center for the market.

That being said, if they deliver a real surprise in the next earnings, maybe with signs of stabilizing growth, the stock could get a short term pop. Still, my target is 48.00 in the next 7 weeks. Biggest risk here is a strategic announcement or partnership that actually lands. That could catch shorts off guard. But for now, the trend is down and patience is justified.

Honestly I'm with you, the chart's been ugly and I don't see a big turnaround story right now. The whole “strong engagement” angle only matters so much if those users aren’t spending. Seems like people piling in last year forgot about fundamentals. Unless something major changes, I’d bet we drift lower too.

Hard to argue with the "over their skis" part. The engagement stat gets thrown around a lot, but if bookings and spend aren't seeing real upside, who cares? Chart looks rough and the whole metaverse hype wave has cooled off hard. Not a name I'd want to be long right now.

Completely agree, all the “kids spend tons of time on RBLX” talk doesn’t fix the weak bookings. If they can’t monetize, especially after so much hype and that Q4 stumble, it’s just not enough. They’d have to show real revenue growth before this chart looks safe to touch.
