What is Reddit's stock ticker symbol?

Reddit’s stock ticker symbol is RDDT. Reddit began trading publicly on the New York Stock Exchange on March 21, 2024, after completing its initial public offering (IPO). The four-letter symbol was chosen as a compact abbreviation of the company’s name and echoes the platform’s distinctive double-D spelling.

Before its IPO, Reddit was a privately held company founded in 2005 by Steve Huffman, Alexis Ohanian, and Aaron Swartz. Its public listing made Reddit one of the most prominent social-media companies to enter the stock market in the 2020s. The IPO also attracted unusual attention because Reddit offered shares to some of its own users, including members of communities focused on investing.

A common mix-up is confusing RDDT with Reddit’s former branding, the name of its website, or unrelated abbreviations such as RDT and REDD. RDDT is the company’s stock-market ticker, not a subreddit name or a symbol for Reddit’s virtual points, awards, or community tokens.
