The author makes a bearish case that Reddit is overvalued due to stalled growth, weak ad monetization, AI disruption, and an overhyped AI-training story, valuing it at $50 at best.
RDDT — SHORT The author argues Reddit (RDDT) is overvalued because growth has stalled, anonymous users make ads less targeted, and volunteer moderation can suppress engagement. He contends AI chatbots are replacing anonymous-forum interactions and that the AI-training data bull story is overhyped since labs already scraped 20 years of posts and new posts are mostly redundant. He concludes Reddit is worth $50 at best, with the main stated risk being the AI-training narrative that he believes mainly fuels insider selling.
However, lack of growth aside, the even worse downside case for Reddit is it's simply getting disrupted by AI.
