GameStop trading halted repeatedly, meme stocks pop on ‘Roaring Kitty’ return: Yahoo Finance

Yahoo Finance Video

“Roaring Kitty,” the retail trader who led the meme stock craze, posted on social media for the first time in 3 years, causing meme stocks to jump. “Roaring Kitty,” who has been identified as Keith Gill, was known for his bullish stance on GameStop (GME) and was one of those that helped the stock skyrocket in 2021. His reappearance has caused the video game retailer’s shares to soar again, causing the stock’s trading to be halted multiple times for volatility. Other meme stocks are rising too including AMC Entertainment (AMC), Tupperware Brands (TUP), and BlackBerry (BB). Other trending tickers on Yahoo Finance include Alibaba (BABA), Medical Properties Trust (MPW), and Rivian Automotive (RIVN).
