GameStop (GME) Erases MTD Gains Amid Roaring Kitty’s Hibernation

As an analyst with a background in stock market analysis and experience following the GameStop (GME) situation closely, I can’t help but express my concern over Roaring Kitty’s recent silence and its impact on the GME ecosystem. The absence of such a prominent figure and influential trader in this community is causing significant losses for those who have invested in the stock.


The current quiet period from Roaring Kitty is negatively impacting the GameStop (GME) community, resulting in significant financial losses.

GME Price Continues to Drop

As a researcher studying the stock market, I’ve noticed a considerable drop in GameStop’s share price over the past few weeks. This downturn can be attributed in large part to the absence of influential trader and social media personality, Keith Gill, also known as Roaring Kitty. The decline became even more pronounced when the stock lost all of its recent monthly gains.

Based on current data from Yahoo Finance, the GameStop (GME) stock was priced at $23.09 upon writing this text. Notably, there’s been a nearly 3% decrease since Monday’s market close and a 7% decline over the last week. Additionally, this recent drop has led to a 3% dip in GameStop’s stock value monthly, equivalent to approximately $0.75.

This is a shocking pivot for the stock considering how high it flew as of three weeks ago.

Around the beginning of June, the GameStop stock reached its peak price for the month at $46.55. This occurred approximately when Gill disclosed his substantial investment in the stock, valued at nearly $600 million. The GME stock experienced a remarkable jump of 47.45% in just one day, ending the trading session on June 6 at $46.55. On the other hand, the meme coin GME, which is based on the Solana platform, underwent an impressive surge of 118%.

After a few days, I observed that Gill reported a significant setback, with a loss of approximately $350 million in profits. The GameStop stock experienced a dramatic decrease of around 50% within just two days. Unfortunately, the stock continued to plummet further following this initial drop.

GameStop to Pivot to Smaller Network 

As a researcher, I’ve come across some intriguing news from GameStop’s CEO, Ryan Cohen. In a recent investor update, he emphasized the company’s new goal: striving for profitability. To accomplish this, he signaled a potential shift in strategy – aiming to manage a network of smaller stores spread across the country.

The unexpected announcement led to a significant drop in GameStop’s stock value. Shares decreased by 13.4% and were priced at $24.86. If the stock price had continued to rise and peaked at $65, GME supporters would have amassed a fortune worth over a billion dollars. Regrettably, this optimistic scenario did not materialize.

As a researcher, I’ve uncovered an intriguing development in the saga of Ryan Cohen, or “Gill,” as he’s known in financial circles. He recently chose to activate some of his GME option, allowing him to increase his share ownership from approximately 5 million to around 9 million. Given the current market value, this expansion would have been equivalent to a substantial $206 million fortune.
