Investors can ignore GameStop, but the trends that put $GME at the center of the stock market are here to stay. barrons.com/articles/the-g…
GameStop was an emblem of the Covid-era economy. Then users on #WallStreetBets coalesced around the stock. Retail investors countered the huge short interest that had massed against $GME, causing a squeeze that throttled hedge funds. barrons.com/articles/the-g…

The stock market had been able to ignore the wild trading in heavily shorted stocks—until now. As of Wednesday's close, the Dow was down 2.05%, the S&P was down 2.57%, and the Nasdaq was down 2.61%.barrons.com/articles/how-g…
GameStop is partially to blame. Retail traders—often using options—have helped propel $GME stock more than 1,000% this year. On Wednesday alone, shares were up more than 100%. barrons.com/articles/how-g…
The rise is the result of a short squeeze, where investors like hedge funds must buy shares to cover bets as losses mount for short sellers. Shares of other heavily shorted companies, like $AMC and $BBBY, rose Wednesday as well. barrons.com/articles/dow-j…

In the face of a major economic downturn, the central bank cut interest rates to near zero, unleashed enormous bond-buying programs, deployed new lending facilities, and went far beyond what any Fed had done in the past. barrons.com/articles/why-j…
