On August 25, Reddit rose 5.05% in regular trading, trading at approximately $160.28 per share, with turnover of $270 million. The rebound comes as the stock stabilizes following a turbulent August marked by sharp swings.
Reddit experienced significant volatility this month. After reporting Q2 earnings on July 30, the stock plunged roughly 20% as CEO Steve Huffman warned that AI is reshaping search traffic flows, reducing direct visits to content platforms like Reddit. The stock then surged over 16% on August 14 after S&P Dow Jones Indices announced Reddit would join the S&P 500, replacing AvalonBay Communities, effective August 18. The subsequent pullback from those highs now appears to be finding a floor.
Fundamentally, Reddit reported Q2 revenue of $805 million, up 61% year-over-year, with net income surging 183% to $253 million, marking its eighth consecutive quarter of 60%+ revenue growth. Institutional sentiment remains constructive: Morgan Stanley lowered its target to $210 from $240 but maintained an Overweight rating, while Raymond James raised its target to $205. The analyst consensus mean target stands at approximately $215.53.
