Should You Buy Roblox Stock Right Now?

Roblox (NYSE: RBLX) went public on March 10, and after trading largely sideways for a couple of months, the stock price has surged as of late. Its first earnings announcement as a public company came on May 10, and the results impressed investors.

Roblox operates a co-experience gaming platform where users can both interact with each other and develop new content for the platform. It's especially popular with a young demographic; more than 50% of its users are under age 13. It experienced a surge of new users and increased engagement as the pandemic limited entertainment options for adults and kids alike.

Both management and shareholders naturally hope that most of those new players will stick around even after the pandemic subsides and entertainment options outside of the home revive. But is now a good time to consider adding Roblox stock to your portfolio?
