B. Riley Securities maintains Reddit at Buy, lowers price target to $190 from $270

What happened

B. Riley Securities kept its Buy rating on Reddit but cut its price target to $190 from $270, a 29.6% decrease. The new target implies 46.6% upside from the October 29 close of $129.60.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

A lower price target means the analyst expects less upside than before, even while keeping a Buy rating, which means still expecting the stock to rise. Investors reading this note see weaker expected gains without a downgrade.

Analyst inference

Other recent analyst notes on Reddit show targets from $120 to $170, with some downgrades to hold-like ratings. B. Riley's $190 target sits above that range, so it remains more optimistic than several peers.

Analyst inference

What to watch

1. Watch whether other analysts change their Reddit ratings or price targets after B. Riley's cut, since recent notes already range from $120 to $170. Confirmed
2. Investors could compare B. Riley's $190 target with the $120 to $170 range from recent notes to judge how much optimism is priced in. Proposed
3. If more analysts lower targets toward the $120 to $170 range, expected upside shrinks, which could pressure Reddit shares as investors adjust positioning. Analyst inference
