Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD) shares are trading higher Tuesday. The return of GameStop Corp (NYSE:GME) trader "Roaring Kitty" could potentially drive increased trading activity on the Robinhood platform.
What To Know: Meme stock mania is back. Heavily shorted stocks are rallying Tuesday as traders target high short interest names.
The mania on Wall Street this week can be traced back to a social media post from Keith Gill, best known as "Roaring Kitty" on YouTube and X or "DeepF***ingValue" on Reddit. Following a three-year absence from social media, Gill took to X over the weekend, posting a meme of a person leaning forward in a chair, which sparked a rally in GameStop stock and several other heavily shorted names.
The increased volatility in stocks that are popular among retail bodes well for Robinhood. Robinhood is mainly used by retail traders and investors. Additionally, the return of Gill is likely to bring more retail traders back into the market.

週二，羅賓漢市場公司（納斯達克股票代碼：HOOD）股價上漲。GameStop Corp（紐約證券交易所代碼：GME）交易員 “Roaring Kitty” 的回歸有可能推動羅賓漢平台交易活動的增加。
須知：Meme 股票狂熱又回來了。由於交易員瞄準高空頭利率股票，大量做空的股票週二上漲。
本週華爾街的狂熱可以追溯到基思·吉爾在社交媒體上發佈的一篇帖子，他在YouTube上最出名的是 “Roaring Kitty”，在Reddit上被稱爲 “X或Deepf***ingValue”。在離開社交媒體三年後，吉爾在週末上線了X，發佈了一個人坐在椅子上向前傾斜的模因，這引發了GameStop股票和其他幾家嚴重做空股票的上漲。
深受零售業歡迎的股票波動性增加對Robinhood來說是個好兆頭。Robinhood主要由散戶交易者和投資者使用。此外，吉爾的回歸可能會使更多的零售交易者重返市場。
