It appeared in sampled listing pages
The scan covered posts dated from through . A post counts once for this ticker even if the symbol appears repeatedly.
The scan used 9 feeds: Hot, New, and Top feeds for three Reddit communities across r/wallstreetbets, r/stocks, and r/investing. It counted posts in those feeds, not every Reddit post or comment.
Attention is not a buy signal
A high rank does not show whether posts were positive, accurate, independent, or financially important. The chart below shows prices supplied by TradingView. It cannot tell you whether the fund is a good investment.
Start with identity and filings, then decide what could disprove the thesis. If the amount you could lose is not written down, the discussion has already taken too much control of the decision.
