Key Headlines Impacting Reddit

- Negative Sentiment: CFO Andrew Vollero disclosed multiple recent sales (including several transactions in early January totaling millions across tranches), and the cluster of senior-exec sales is amplifying headline risk and short-term downside pressure. CFO SEC Filing CFO Trade Alert
- Negative Sentiment: Coverage notes the stock moved lower (~6% in some reports) after the wave of insider selling — which explains today’s downward pressure as investors reassess near-term risk despite positive analyst notes. Market Reaction Article
