Social media company Reddit filed its IPO prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday after a yearslong run-up. The company plans to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “RDDT.”
Reddit said it had $804 million in annual sales for 2023, up 20% from the $666.7 million it brought in the previous year, according to the filing.
The company said it has incurred net losses since its inception. It reported a net loss of $90.8 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $158.6 million the year prior.
Its market debut, expected in March, will mark the first major tech initial public offering of the year. It’s the first social media IPO since Pinterest went public in 2019.
Reddit first filed a confidential draft of its public offering prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission in December 2021.
On top of what others have said keep in mind shorting isn’t just you saying the stock will go down, it’s you saying the stock will go down more than others think it will. Tbh I wouldn’t even touch anything to do with shorting or options if I were you. It’s incredibly risky and should only be done by people with more experience than you and I.
Absolutely correct. I played around with options several times during the height of the pandemic and lost over 99% of my investment. I think it was about 99.3%. It’s straight up gambling.
Shorting a stock can result in you owing more than you’ve already spent. That’s back alley gambling.
Keep in mind there are literally thousands of Redditors who have the same idea.
