Texas Governor&nbsp;Greg Abbott (R-Texas) has directed state agencies to cease investments in China and divest existing ones. This decision, announced in a letter dated Nov. 21, highlights security and financial risks associated with Chinese investments, 
What Happened: Abbott&#8217;s directive argues that this aggression could elevate the financial risks tied to Chinese investments. The governor&#8217;s letter explicitly bans Texas investing entities from making new investments in China.
Moreover, Abbott has instructed these entities to divest from any current Chinese investments at the earliest feasible opportunity. 
&#8220;Texas will defend and safeguard itself and our public treasury from any potential threat, including those posed by the CCP,&#8221; the statement read.

Why It Matters: The directive from Governor Abbott comes amid escalating U.S.-China tensions. Recently, the U.S. House of Representatives advanced two Republican bills aiming to reinstate the U.S. Justice Department's "China Initiative." This initiative seeks to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40831428/house-gop-advances-bills-to-reinstate-justice-departments-china-initiative-despite-white-house-disap">curb espionage activities</a> targeting U.S. intellectual property and academic institutions. The bills were part of the House Republican's &#8220;China Week,&#8221; which saw over two dozen China-related legislative measures passed.
President-elect Donald Trump has proposed to impose 60% tariff on Chinese goods. Chinese President Xi Jinping recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42025284/xi-jinping-tells-joe-biden-china-is-ready-to-work-with-trump-as-tariff-threat-looms">expressed a willingness</a> to collaborate with the U.S. government, regardless of the administration in power. This statement was made during a meeting with President Joe Biden at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Lima.

Shares of Reddit Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) nosedived by 6.2% to $148.11 per share in premarket, despite closing 16% higher at $158.02 apiece on Thursday. Technical analysis points towards a bullish trend, with the stock trading at overbought levels.
What Happened: Reddit&#8217;s shareholder, Advance Magazine Publishers Inc. plans to sell as much as $1.2 billion of the company&#8217;s stake, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-21/advance-magazine-said-to-seek-1-2-billion-in-reddit-share-sale">reported</a> Bloomberg on Friday morning. The company is said to be offering 7.8 million shares in between the range of $145.38-$148.54 each.
Advance Magazine Publishers is an arm of the Newhouse family publishing empire that owns Conde Nast. The company seeks to establish a credit facility using Reddit&#8217;s stake, while buying derivatives on Reddit&#8217;s shares, which allow it to indirectly maintain an ownership stake, reported Bloomberg.
Apart from this, Reddit faced an outage <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42118134/reddit-resolves-another-outage-after-morning-disruptions-impact-72000-users">on Wednesday and Thursday</a> this week. This outage stems from an HTTP error, as per TechCrunch. The platform was able to resolve the issue later.

Why It Matters: Technical analysis points towards strong support for the RDDT stock.

Thursday&#8217;s closing price of $158.02 sits above its eight, 20, and 50-day simple moving averages, signaling a bullish trend. However, the stock's distance from its 100-day moving average of $75.59 suggests potential selling opportunities with the relative strength index of 79.18 indicating overbought conditions.
While RDDT stock could face volatility, if the stake sale report holds true its recent upgrade from Piper Sandler citing strong user growth metrics, makes it attractive in the longer term.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RDDT/analyst-ratings">Benzinga pro data</a>, Reddit has a consensus price target of $92.84 based on the ratings of 19 analysts. The high is $150 per share issued by Piper Sandler on Nov. 19 and the low is $54 apiece issued by New Street Research on March 26, 2024.
The average price target of $118.33 between Piper Sandler, Bernstein, and Citigroup implies a 19.28% downside for Reddit.
