RDDT Deadline: Rosen Law Firm Urges Reddit, Inc. (NYSE: RDDT) Stockholders with Losses in Excess of $100K to Contact the Firm for Information About Their Rights

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds investors that a shareholder filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers and acquirers of Reddit, Inc. (NYSE: RDDT) securities between October 29, 2024 and May 20, 2025. Reddit is a social media platform and forum-style website. For more information, submit a form, email attorney Phillip Kim, or give us a call at 866-767-3653. The Allegations: Rosen Law Firm is Investigating the Allegations that Reddit, Inc. (NYSE: RDDT) Misled Investors Regarding its Business Operations. According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) changes in Google Search's algorithm and features like AI Overview were causing users to stop their query on Google search; (2) these algorithm changes were materially different than prior instances of reduced traffic to the Reddit website; (3) defendants were aware that the increase in the query term 'Reddit' on search engines was because users were getting the sought after answer from Google Search without having to go to Reddit, and not because they intended to visit Reddit; (4) this zero-click search reality was dramatically reducing traffic to Reddit in a manner that Reddit was unable to overcome in the short term; and (5) defendants, therefore, lacked a reasonable basis for its outlook on user rates and advertising revenues. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. What Now: You may be eligible to participate in the class action against Reddit, Inc. Shareholders who want to serve as lead plaintiff for the class must file their motions with the court by August 18, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. You do not have to participate in the case to be eligible for a recovery. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. For more information, click here. All representation is on a contingency fee basis. Shareholders pay no fees or expenses. About Rosen Law Firm: Some law firms issuing releases about this matter do not actually litigate securities class actions. Rosen Law Firm does. Rosen Law Firm is a recognized leader in shareholder rights litigation, dedicated to helping shareholders recover losses, improving corporate governance structures, and holding company executives accountable for their wrongdoing. Since its inception, Rosen Law Firm has obtained over $1 billion for shareholders. Attorney Advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

How a simple Demat account trick can save you thousands in stock market taxes

Many stock market investors unknowingly pay far more tax than they should simply because of how they manage their Demat accounts. The reason? Most people hold both their long-term investments and short-term trading positions in the same Demat account. On the surface, this looks simple and convenient. But when it comes to taxation, it creates a trap that leads to higher taxable gains — and bigger tax bills. How FIFO inflates your tax bill India's tax system follows FIFO – First In, First Out. This means when you sell shares, the system assumes you're selling your oldest holdings first, even if your intention was to sell recent trades. Here's a simple example: You buy 100 shares at ₹100 each for long-term investment. Later, you buy 50 shares at ₹180 each for short-term trading. A few weeks later, you sell the 50 shares at ₹200 each. What you think your profit is: Trading profit = ₹20 per share (₹200 – ₹180). What the tax system says your profit is: Since FIFO applies, it counts the ₹100 long-term shares as sold first. Taxable profit = ₹100 per share (₹200 – ₹100). So instead of being taxed on ₹1,000 profit (50 × ₹20), you're taxed on ₹5,000 profit (50 × ₹100). That's a huge jump — and this happens only because everything is mixed in one account. The fix: Separate your holdings The solution is straightforward: keep your long-term and short-term investments in separate Demat accounts. One Demat account for long-term holdings. Another Demat account for short-term trades. This way, you control which shares you're selling, and the FIFO rule applies within each account separately. By simply separating accounts, you prevent long-term investments from being treated as short-term sales. How Zerodha makes it easier Recently, Zerodha introduced a Secondary Demat Account feature. This allows investors to create a second Demat account under the same login, making it far easier to separate long-term and short-term holdings. Zerodha users can activate this feature for better tax planning. Even non-Zerodha users can do this by opening Demat accounts with different brokers. Either way, the principle is the same: segregation gives you tax control. Why this matters For small traders, this could mean saving thousands of rupees a year. For larger portfolios, it could mean lakhs in tax savings over time. In stock market investing, we often focus on making the right trades. But managing tax efficiency is equally important. As the saying goes: It's not just about what you earn, it's also about what you keep. Conclusion By using separate Demat accounts — or Zerodha's new Secondary Demat Account feature — you can legally and effectively reduce your tax burden. It's a simple, practical tax hack that can save you big money in the long run. If you invest in stocks, this one adjustment could mean the difference between paying heavy taxes and keeping more of your hard-earned profits.

Why 3D Systems Stock Was Soaring This Week

Key Points The company posted an unexpected net profit according to GAAP standards in its latest reported quarter. There was a big catch to this, however. 10 stocks we like better than 3D Systems › A beaten-down stock that had been unpopular for years experienced a bull run over the past few days -- 3D Systems (NYSE: DDD), an incumbent stock in the briefly hot 3D printing sector. The company's shares were coasting on an encouraging quarterly earnings report, plus a subsequent price target bump by an analyst. According to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, week to date as of early Friday morning 3D Systems' price had risen by more than 17%. Second time's the charm 3D Systems posted its second-quarter earnings release after market close on Monday, divulging that its revenue landed just shy of $95 million. This was lower than both the second-quarter 2024 figure ($113 million), and the consensus analyst estimate (nearly $104 million). Rather surprisingly, however, 3D Systems flipped hard into profitability under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), producing a net income figure topping $104 million (which was, by the way, higher than its revenue figure). A large asterisk next to this line item, however, is the company's sale of its Geomagic software portfolio, a $123 million deal that was closed this past April. Stripping that plus other non-recurring items out of the equation resulted in a non-GAAP (adjusted) net loss of $0.07 per share, which was at least much narrower than the $0.14-per-share deficit in the year-ago period. It also beat the average pundit net loss projection of $0.11. In its earnings release, 3D Systems CEO Jeffrey Graves said its second-quarter performance derived from "an intense focus on our cost structure and operational efficiencies, in the face of a continuously challenging macroeconomic climate for our industry." A pundit gets 25% more positive On Wednesday, one analyst tracking 3D Systems stock became more bullish on its future. Craig-Hallum's Greg Palm expressed this by lifting his price target on the stock by 25%, from $2 per share to $2.50. He isn't quite in the buy camp yet, however, as he maintained his hold recommendation. Should you invest $1,000 in 3D Systems right now?
