The meme, the man, the legend Keith “The Roaring Kitty” Gill is back online and in full swing following the recent bullish movements of GameStop.

After a long period of silence, Keith announced a livestream due to take place today, June 7 2024. There was no other information shared apart from what’s in the screenshot below.

Upon simply announcing this, the $GME stock skyrocketed over 50% in just a matter of hours and closed on June 6 at just under $48.

What’s fascinating here, is what is left unsaid. During the meme stock craze back in 2019–2021 Roaring Kitty (aka DeepFuckingValue on Reddit) was at the center of a market manipulation scandal, being accused of his social media activity deliberately impacting the stock’s price.

Allow me to take you back to the very beginning of this Epic GameStock saga to properly put into perspective Roaring Kitty’s recent Live Stream — which we’ll also cover once we’ve done the origin story justice.
