Top Reddit Stocks Last Week: GME, NVDA, and GOOG

March 9, 4:22 pm

Reddit stayed anchored to the familiar heavyweights last week, with GameStop, NVIDIA, and Google leading total mentions. But the more interesting shift was under the surface. Attention rotated toward fresh catalysts, especially Broadcom, while some of the biggest names saw discussion cool from the prior week.

GameStop stayed No. 1, but the move was modest

GME led Reddit with 2,156 mentions, up 11.5% week over week, while the stock gained 3.2%. The tone stayed bullish, but the catalyst mix looked familiar rather than game-changing. The most popular posts focused on hopes for a seventh straight positive earnings print, a broker move removing margin on the stock in Canada, and strength in GameStop warrants after hitting a new after-hours high.

That kept GameStop at the top of the feed, but this was not the biggest change in Reddit attention last week.

NVIDIA and Google were still core names, but for different reasons

NVDA was still a major Reddit stock with 1,725 mentions, but that was down 63.7% from the prior week even as shares rose 3.1%. The main posts shifted from pure hype to debate. Reddit focused on Jensen Huang saying a $30 billion OpenAI investment might be the last, fresh concern over proposed US control of NVIDIA's global sales, and whether memory suppliers may benefit as newer chips demand far more RAM.

GOOG logged 1,509 mentions, down 9.6%, with shares slipping 1.7%. The dominant narrative was not about search or ads. It was about AI infrastructure. Reddit discussion centered on Google's participation in a White House meeting on AI power strategy, with data center electricity demand and grid pressure emerging as the key theme. Sentiment stayed bullish, but the conversation was clearly more about power and capacity than product news.

Broadcom was the real breakout

AVGO was one of the clearest movers on the board. Mentions jumped 465.6% to 707, and the stock rose 8.2%. The catalyst was straightforward: a strong earnings report. Reddit posts highlighted revenue of $19.31 billion, adjusted EPS of $2.05, AI revenue up 106% to $8.4 billion, Q2 guidance of $22 billion ahead of expectations, and a $10 billion buyback.

The bigger narrative was that Broadcom is becoming a bigger part of the AI buildout, especially through custom chips and networking tied to customers like Google, Meta, and Microsoft. In a week when NVIDIA discussion cooled, Broadcom looked like the AI hardware name gaining fresh mindshare.

Robinhood got louder as retail traders talked shop

HOOD mentions rose 46.3% to 837, while shares gained 4.6%. Unlike Broadcom, this was not driven by one clean company catalyst. The biggest posts were classic retail-trader content: a viral complaint about Robinhood's tax-lot handling, a post about turning $100 into $12,000 and moving the money into Robinhood, and chatter around a new dividend tracker in the app.

That mix tells the story. Robinhood attention rose because traders were actively using the platform, talking about taxes, options, and account features. It was a retail engagement spike more than a fundamentals story.

If there was one clear shift, it was this: Reddit's AI focus broadened from flagship names to the companies powering the next layer of the buildout.
