Could Webull Stock’s Cash Flow Spark the Next Rally?
We think Webull (BULL) stock is worth a look: It is growing, producing cash, and available at a significant valuation discount. Companies like this can use cash to fuel additional revenue growth, or simply pay their shareholders through dividends or buybacks. Either move makes them attractive to the market.
What Is Happening With BULL
BULL may be up 5.4% so far this year but is still available at a significant discount to its 3-month, 1-year, and 2-year highs. This can be attributed to increased competitive pressures and investor caution regarding regulatory shifts affecting trading revenue models. Further, initial market exuberance post-April 2025 public listing moderated, prompting re-evaluated growth expectations.
The stock may not reflect it yet, but here is what’s going well for the company: Webull’s Q3 2025 showed 17% user growth and 84% customer asset growth to $21.2 billion. New AI tools and re-launched crypto trading expand appeal. Strong trading volumes (equity notional up 71%) and controlled expenses yield positive adjusted operating profits. With a 0.11 debt-to-equity, financial health is solid despite valuation discounts.

But What About The Risk Involved?
While BULL stock may be a compelling investment opportunity, it’s always helpful to be aware of a stock’s history of drawdown. BULL took a hit of 68% in the Dot-Com crash, 65% during the Global Financial Crisis, and 58% in the 2022 inflation selloff. Even the less severe downturns — like 2018 and the Covid pullback — triggered drops north of 20%. The stock shows resilience, but history tells us sharp slides can’t be ruled out, no matter how strong the fundamentals look.
