GME stock

Image
  Hello and welcome to my latest blog post. Today, I'll be discussing the recent rise and fall of GameStop (GME) stock, which has been making headlines in the financial world over the past year. In early 2021, GME stock experienced a meteoric rise in value, fueled in part by a group of amateur investors on the Reddit forum r/WallStreetBets.
