Maybe this is a dumb question, but how does the day to day health of the reddit community affect the stock price? Wouldn't a simpler explanation be that reddit stock is in decline like most other stocks right now because of the overall market uncertainty?
News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
It could indicate that investors don't like these moves and see it as a risk for the future of the company. Or it could indicate that line goes up or down randomly, who knows, not the folks on wall street that's for sure.
Stock indexes, typical stocks, are down about 10% from highs around that period.
Stock prices are mostly speculation these days, thay don't reflect the actual financial standing of a company, but more the public perception of the company. People get pissed at reddit, dump the shares they were holding and the demand drops, so the price goes down. ...I think.

It is being talked about over here from a Bloomberg / yahoo finance article.
It they are linking to the Reddit's behavior?
Good, let reddit die. Conversations shouldn't be profitable.
Fuck /u/spez
Good. Fuck em.
The less I hear about that shit hole, the better I feel.
Losing after siding with a loser. Entirely predictable outcome.
Must be some hell of insider trading, shorting the stock and driving reddit to the ground cause there is no other explanation why they would keep making more stupud decisions
I know it's bizarre
Man is that overvalued as fuck.
lol. Cunts.
I didn't even know they did their IPO yet - I knew they were planning it for years though.
It's been slightly over a year since they did, IIRC.
They also sent out a ton of spam messages to their members begging them to buy stock at the time.
Yeah, it was funny to get that after I'd moved to Lemmy. (I keep my account open so I have control over deletion of comments)
IPO = enshittification guaranteed
Are those the reasons for the drop though? I've been completely oblivious to this.
That's because we give absolutely, and that's verified, zero fucks about *eddit and his piece of shit, pretending to be a human being, of a ceo
Amazing - it's almost like people here DGAF about reddit or what happens to it.
♥️✨
Couldn't have happened to a nicer company. Cheers.
I would need to verify the timelines but I am pretty sure this has jack all to do with Luigi Mangione
And... maybe look at the stock market as a whole. Again, grain of salt without a proper analysis, but this doesn't look much different than the entire stock market that is constantly fluctuating as we wonder what industries will get hit the hardest by the hourly tariffs and which are going to get exemptions and so forth.
I think it's plausible to have uncertainty as an investor given Musk pressured Huffman into censoring criticism against him. To me, seems like he has some pictures of Huffman that would make his jailbait moderating days look tame.
