Reddit shares are plummeting after experiencing a rally stemming from the social media company's IPO last week. Shares closed at $49.32, ending the week below their closing price on Reddit's first day of trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

The company's shares then rose 8.8% on Tuesday to close at $65.11, even after New Street Research issued a neutral rating on the company.

It has been a strong fourth quarter for the S & P 500 — and its leading stocks are poised for even larger gains. The S & P 500 is on pace to end the quarter up 6.2%, through Thursday's market open.
