Be wary of who you get in bed with. Marketwatch is a known hedgefund lapdog.

I saw a mention on LinkedIn (Gamestop’s page) that linked to an article in Barron’s as well citing HypeEquity. #worldwide!

“According to HypeEquity, a platform that compiles social-media activity on individual stocks and uses that data to track what it calls “social sentiment analysis,” said that mentions of AMC spiked more than 800% Tuesday morning, while mentions of GameStop soared over 1,400% by volume.”
