A lot of Redditors hate the Reddit IPO | Reddit warned us that its users were a risk factor, and boy do they sound excited about shorting its stock.::Reddit seems like a likely candidate for a meme stock. But the actual reaction suggests that r/WallStreetBets isn’t going to send the stock to the moon.
This means they’re positioning themselves solely as a source of training data. If their users are a risk factor, not the entire product, they’re completely uninterested in maintaining a user base and think that what they have is all they’ll ever need to sell.
