Is The New Meme Stock Rally Led By GME, AMC A Repeat Of 2021? Vanda Research Says No: 'Chances We Reach That Stage Are Low'
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Meme stocks GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment (AMC) saw significant gains earlier this week but experienced a sharp pullback. Vanda Research suggests that the current rally is unlikely to reach the levels seen in 2021 due to lower trading volumes and retail participation. Hedge funds are better prepared this time, and the recent volatility is driven more by fundamentals than social media hype.
