GameStop Stock Rises. Here’s What’s Needed to Really Reignite Meme Fever.

GameStop Stock Rises. Here’s What’s Needed to Really Reignite Meme Fever.

The meme stock fever that catapulted GameStop up the charts and back into the spotlight last month has somewhat faded, with the shares languishing in recent days amid signs of waning interest from investors. Shares in GameStop slipped 2.9% on Wednesday to close at $24.20, though prices were more buoyant Thursday, with the shares advancing 6.6%. Wednesday saw the lowest trading volume in GameStop since before last month’s rollercoaster, with 17.43 million shares traded on June 26 being the lowest since May 2 and below the 65-day average of 47.57 million, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
