Well, it seems that we might yet again see a repeat of the 2021 classic battle between retail investors and hedge funds. Earlier this week, Citron Research co-founder Andrew Left announced that he would be shorting the GameStop stock again, after closing the May position. Commenting on Roaring Kitty building massive positions in the market, Left said: “He might as well be a hedge fund manager”.
In the after-market hours, the GameStop stock price has surged by an additional 31%. Popular investor Anthony Pompliano stated: “Roaring Kitty potentially becomes a billionaire tomorrow if GameStop hits $69 a share. If that wasn’t crazy enough, he’ll be live-streaming it. From blowing up billionaire’s funds to becoming one himself. Insane”.
Solana-based GME Meme Coin Rallies
Along with the GameStop rally on Wall street, the digital asset market has seen significant activity, with Solana-based meme token GME, inspired by GameStop but not affiliated with the company, surging over 118% in the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko data.
This spike occurred despite a broader crypto market pullback. Similarly, the micro-cap AMC token, which shares its name with the troubled movie theater chain but has no affiliation, also saw a jump of 118%. In fact this meme coin has surged by a staggering 4,600% over the past month, thereby hitting a new all-time high.
Some market analysts are also giving a $1 price target for the $GME meme coin.
