The Rise of the Memelords
Once upon a time, in the mystical land of Reddit, a group of renegade traders gathered. Armed with Robinhood accounts and a penchant for chaos, they set their sights on GameStop—a humble video game retailer. “Why not?” they thought. “Let’s make this stock soar like a caffeinated seagull on a Red Bull binge!” And so, they bought GameStop shares, not because they believed in the company, but because they wanted to stick it to the Wall Street suits. Thus began the Great Meme Stock Revolution, where emojis replaced financial analysis, and rocket ships became the official currency.
