    Fuck Spez, and all that, but really, this chart isn’t much different from nearly every stock for the same time period.

    I think that dip has more to do with Trump creating uncertainty in the market overall than any specific Reddit trend/policy.

      Kinda…

      For comparison, the S&P 500 felt 4% on the period, Nasdaq felt 7%. So 30% is really noteworth, Redddit is one of the stocks pulling the index down. But it’s not alone, and blaming it on any random cause isn’t right.

        Yah, I was going to say the same thing. S&P not only dropped much less, it dropped at a different time and slope. S&P dropped in line with when Trump took office and has been relatively flat. Reddit has been on a constant decline since the start of the year.
