4 Top Meme Stocks To Consider Watching Right Now

With all the buzz around meme stocks this week, more investors may be asking the question, “what are meme stocks”? For starters, this section of the stock market today is a blazing hot one at the moment, safe to say. Meme stocks initially came on to the scene in late January 2021. Namely, this was and is still thanks to retail investors on the social media platform, Reddit. Particularly, these investors banded together by pooling resources and pumping them into the most shorted stocks at the time. As a result, said stocks saw their values skyrocket overnight.

Now, some four months after the initial phase of this trading frenzy, meme stocks appear to be making a comeback. Along with several of the classic names, retail investors appear to have a growing meme stocks list to choose from. For instance, Beyond Meat (NASDAQ: BYND) and Koss Corporation (NASDAQ: KOSS) are joining the madness. BYND stock is up by over 40% in the past two weeks. More impressively, KOSS stock is looking at year-to-date gains of over 1,100%. While the current meme stock saga unfolds, more adventurous investors could be keen to jump on the meme train. In an age where meme stocks and meme cryptocurrencies dominate stock market news, I wouldn’t blame them for doing so. With all that said, here are four of the best meme stocks in the stock market now.

Using a prevention-first and AI-driven approach, the company’s new endpoint and security capabilities will help differentiate its extended detection and response (XDR) strategy.

Billy Ho, Executive Vice President of Product Engineering at BlackBerry said, “Traditional endpoint security alone is not enough to tackle the sophisticated threat landscape. Our end-to-end approach to cybersecurity is deeply rooted in Cylance AI and ML to provide enhanced visibility and protection against current and future cyber threats. As part of our XDR roadmap, we will continue to add new products and additional sources of security telemetry, such as user behavior, identity, network, data, application, and cloud to the Optics 3.0 cloud data lake.” In essence, this solution will enable more efficient and effective detection and response.
