GameStop’s stock price fell over 3% last week, closing at $24.18 on Friday. This decline exacerbated the company’s recent losses, with its shares plummeting more than XNUMX% since March 5.
This period coincided with reduced activity from influencer and trader Keith Gill, also known as Roaring Kitty. GameStop’s shares have struggled as they lose momentum previously driven by Gill’s influence. The drop in stock prices over the past month underscores the importance of active participation by key influencers. Without regular updates from Gill, investor enthusiasm appears to have waned.
Despite earlier gains, GameStop’s performance highlights the volatility of meme stocks, heavily reliant on online community engagement and influential figures’ activity. Recent trends suggest a need for sustained involvement of influential individuals to maintain stock price dynamics.

Keith Gill’s recent shift in focus to Chewy surprised many investors. His Twitter post featuring a dog caricature triggered a spike in Chewy’s stock, demonstrating his influence. The subsequent disclosure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of his 9 million shares in Chewy confirmed his investment shift.
This move raises questions about his long-term strategy. Some investors speculate Gill may be diversifying his portfolio, while others wonder if this signals a permanent distancing from GameStop.
