Will these Reddit stocks continue to live up to the hype?

reddit stocks

If you told me investors were looking for the best Reddit stocks to buy over a year ago, I would not have believed you. Nonetheless, the stock market today continues to see the hype train for these social media-fueled companies press forward. Whether you call it Reddit stocks or meme stocks, one thing is sure. These are stocks that see explosive gains mostly due to hype from retail investors online. For the most part, institutional investors were quick to dismiss the sector as being purely speculative. However, retail investors seem to see more value beyond the current trading prices of these stocks.

For example, we could look at the first company that got the meme trade rolling, GameStop (NYSE: GME). Initially, GME stock was being shorted on account of its brick-and-mortar operations facing immense pressure earlier in the pandemic. Thanks to Reddit traders, the company’s shares are now posting year-to-date gains of over 800%.

Moreover, GameStop is now pivoting towards the e-commerce space, continuously expanding its already impressive e-commerce ecosystem, by offering same-day deliveries and great deals for its products. This is clear as it continues to beef up its fulfillment network across the U.S. At the same time, other names in the Reddit trade include Palantir (NYSE: PLTR) that posted strong financials in its second-quarter fiscal earlier today. With no shortage of activity in the space now, would these Reddit stocks be top picks in the stock market now?

AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc.

Following that, we will be taking a look at AMC Entertainment. For the most part, investors would be familiar with AMC stock today. After all, it is another one of the major names in the Reddit stock trade. For the uninitiated, AMC is one of, if not the largest player in the movie exhibition industry worldwide. In terms of scale, the company boasts a network of 950 theatres consisting of 10,500 screens across the globe.

As it stands, the company’s shares currently trade at $34.24 as of 1:04 p.m. ET. This would be after gains of over a whopping 1,400% year-to-date. The real question is, can AMC maintain its current momentum moving forward? Well, if anything, CEO Adam Aron seems to believe so. After reporting narrower-than-expected losses in its second-quarter fiscal last week, AMC ended the quarter with $2 billion in liquidity. According to Aron, AMC is now “playing on offense”. This is evident from its recent spree of acquisitions spanning two of the highest-grossing theaters in Los Angeles among other locations. Could all this make AMC stock worth adding to your watchlist for you?

Robinhood Markets Inc.

Topping off our list today is Robinhood Markets. For most investors today, the company remains a crucial name in the current Reddit stock trade. This would be the case as its online trading services have and continue to serve retail investors. Namely, the company is one of the earliest to offer commission-free mobile trading services in the industry. Fast forward to late July and the company seems to be part of the meme stock trade now.

Diving right into it, HOOD stock is currently looking at gains of over 40% since its initial public offering on July 29. While this is great for the company, Robinhood continues to bolster its operations now. As of earlier this week, the company is now planning to acquire Say Technologies, an investor relations software firm. Through the $140 million acquisition, Robinhood would be refining its investor interaction experiences. Ideally, all this could potentially give HOOD stock more room to run moving forward. Would you agree?
