He said Reddit can continue driving stronger monetization of logged-in users rather than users that land on one of its forums from elsewhere.

Reddit stock rebounded nearly 5% Friday after earlier weekly losses that included a drop of more than 10% Wednesday and another 1% Thursday, leaving the stock down about 13% for the week. A third‑party report found ChatGPT cited Reddit posts less frequently, prompting investor concern about data licensing value. Piper Sandler reiterated an overweight rating with a $290 target, noting ChatGPT is not a major traffic source and that Reddit content remains valuable to LLMs while Google traffic appears intact. Citizen JMP highlighted advertising momentum and stronger monetization of logged‑in users, assigning a $300 target and an outperform rating.
