Gamestop, AMC Meme Stock Rally Not Driven By Retail Traders This Time, IG North America CEO Says 'I Do Not Get The Feeling'
The recent surge in meme stocks, including GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME), AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), and BlackBerry Ltd (NYSE:BB), is not the result of retail traders acting in unison, according to a top industry executive.
一位行業高管表示，最近包括GameStop Corp.（紐約證券交易所代碼：GME）、AMC娛樂控股公司（紐約證券交易所代碼：AMC）和黑莓有限公司（紐約證券交易所代碼：BB）在內的模因股的飆升並不是零售交易者一致行動的結果。
What Happened: JJ Kinahan, CEO of IG North America, suggested that the current meme stock rally is not driven by retail traders, as was the case in the past. Kinahan shared his views during an interview on CNBC's Last Call.
發生了什麼：IG北美首席執行官JJ Kinahan表示，當前的模因股上漲並不像過去那樣是由零售交易者推動的。基納漢在接受CNBC的《最後通話》採訪時分享了他的觀點。
"Last time, in my opinion, this started out with retail traders all doing something at the same time. I do not get the feeling that's what happened this time," Kinahan said, referring to the current meme stock surge.
“在我看來，上一次這始於零售交易者都在同時做某事。我不明白這次發生了這種情況。” 基納漢在談到當前的模因股激增時說。

While the exact catalyst for the recent meme stock rally remains unclear, the surge in these stocks has been remarkable. On Tuesday, GameStop's shares soared by as much as 113%, while AMC experienced a 129% surge in early trading before pulling back.
儘管最近模因股上漲的確切催化劑尚不清楚，但這些股票的飆升非常引人注目。週二，GameStop的股價飆升了多達113％，而AMC在回落之前在早盤交易中上漲了129％。
Social media-fueled trading gained traction with the re-emergence of "Roaring Kitty," also known as Keith Gill, a prominent retail trader from the 2021 meme stock era. Gill resumed posting on social media on Sunday, sparking renewed interest and activity in trading circles.
隨着 “咆哮的小貓”（又名基思·吉爾）的重新出現，社交媒體推動的交易獲得了關注，他是2021年模因股時代的著名零售交易員。吉爾週日恢復在社交媒體上發帖，這激發了交易界的新興趣和活動。
Why It Matters: The current meme stock rally has been a hot topic in the financial world, with many analysts speculating on the driving forces behind it. Some, like Kinahan, believe that retail traders are not the primary force behind the surge, while others, such as Jim Cramer, have suggested that companies like GameStop and AMC may use the stock surge to raise capital through public offerings.
爲何重要：當前的模因股上漲一直是金融界的熱門話題，許多分析師都在猜測其背後的驅動力。一些人，例如基納漢，認爲零售交易者不是股價上漲的主要力量，而另一些人，例如吉姆·克萊默，則表示，像GameStop和AMC這樣的公司可能會利用股票激增通過公開募股籌集資金。
As the meme stock rally continues, analysts are also considering potential factors that could fizzle the rally, such as stock offerings and market boredom. However, for now, the surge in meme stocks is undeniably driving significant interest in the stock market.
隨着模因股繼續上漲，分析師也在考慮可能阻礙漲勢的潛在因素，例如股票發行和市場無聊。但是，就目前而言，模因股票的激增無疑推動了人們對股市的濃厚興趣。
