Recent developments indicate that Seaport Research has upgraded Reddit (RDDT) to a Buy rating from Neutral, setting a target price of $165. Despite posting robust first-quarter revenue and EBITDA, Reddit is experiencing a slowdown in user growth during the second quarter. This deceleration is attributed to recent modifications in Google's (GOOG, Financial) search algorithms, leading to a decline in Reddit's share value.
Although Google's (GOOG, Financial) search changes present a short-term challenge, analysts remain optimistic about Reddit's future. They predict sustained long-term user growth as well as notable increases in revenue and monetization. The firm suggests that the current dip in stock price could be a strategic buying opportunity.
