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

March 30, 10:16 am

Reddit’s stock chatter shifted hard toward battered mega caps last week. Microsoft was the clear leader with 4,229 mentions, up 179.9% week over week. GameStop stayed near the top with 3,001 mentions, while Google climbed to 2,194 mentions as fresh catalysts pulled traders into the conversation.

The leaderboard mattered, but the movers mattered more

Microsoft, GameStop, and Google were the headline names by total mentions, but the more useful signal was how fast attention changed. Microsoft nearly tripled its mention count, Google nearly doubled, and Meta was close behind. That tells you Reddit was reacting to new narratives, not just recycling its usual watchlist.

Microsoft turned into Reddit’s main battleground

Microsoft was the biggest name and the biggest mover. Mentions jumped 179.9% to 4,229 even as the stock fell 5.7% for the week. The top posts show why: Reddit locked onto headlines about Microsoft heading for its worst quarter since 2008, a hiring freeze in major cloud and sales groups, and the broader sense that the stock has been in freefall.

But the discussion was not outright bearish. Some of the most popular posts framed MSFT as undervalued and worth holding for the long term. That mix of selloff anxiety and buy-the-dip conviction made Microsoft the week’s clearest Reddit tug of war, with overall sentiment staying neutral.

Google got attention from both innovation and legal risk

Google mentions rose 99.6% to 2,194 while the stock dropped 8.5%. The biggest catalyst was Reddit’s excitement around Google’s AI memory compression breakthrough, which posters framed as bad news for memory names like Micron, SanDisk, Western Digital, Samsung, and SK Hynix. That gave Google a fresh narrative tied to AI leadership, not just another Mag 7 dip.

At the same time, Reddit was also focused on a California verdict involving YouTube and Meta in a social media addiction case. That kept the tone mixed and fed the wider big tech selloff conversation. Meta, which saw mentions rise 89.9% and shares fall 9.6%, was pulled into the same debate alongside separate layoff headlines.

GameStop stayed loud, but the story was more familiar

GameStop was still one of the most-mentioned stocks on Reddit with 3,001 mentions, up 80.7% week over week. The posts were bullish and centered on stronger earnings, a growing cash pile, seven consecutive green quarters, and the company’s Bitcoin covered call strategy.

That was enough to keep GME near the top of the board, but the stock was almost flat, down just 0.9% for the week. Compared with Microsoft and Google, GameStop looked less like a fresh attention breakout and more like Reddit doing what Reddit usually does with GameStop.

The biggest shift last week was not that Reddit liked the usual big names. It was that attention surged around names where something clearly changed. Microsoft and Google earned the strongest fresh interest through selloff drama, AI narratives, and legal headlines. GameStop remained a staple, but the sharper signal came from the mega caps that suddenly became the center of debate.
