Reddit traders are making a splash in the market, and the market is loving them back.

AMC Entertainment (NYSE: AMC) CEO Adam Aron made the bold move recently to bring retail investors further into the fold, delaying the movie theater chain's annual meeting so more small investors could attend, then giving them special rewards at the theater, like free popcorn.
While marijuana producer Tilray (NASDAQ: TLRY) hasn't gone so far as to give away free pot to shareholders, CEO Irwin Simon wants it known he too appreciates the support the company has received.
