It’s really not a cesspool. Outside of the frenzy, they do a solid job (when things are quiet) of finding cheap stocks with a potential to move within a year.

Even GME, before the phenomenon, the subreddit was mostly targeting 40 dollars around April earnings. The short squeeze was a real tactical play, but most people weren’t 100% on that as the main catalyst (as in, most people really thought the ps5/Xbox sales would be realized at earnings time beyond the ridiculous short position of bankruptcy).

It’s a pretty sensible subreddit.
