Are These The Best Meme Stocks To Buy Now?

Meme stocks seem to be back in fashion in the stock market now. This comes at a time when stocks, in general, remain mostly on the decline year-to-date. As most would know, factors such as inflation, global supply chain pressures, and the conflict in Eastern Europe are contributing to all this. Accordingly, with all these factors in play, investors would normally turn to more defensive sectors in the stock market today. These are your dividend stocks, consumer staples stocks, and value stocks to name a few. However, in the current day and age, meme stocks offer an alternative for more risk-tolerant investors.

For instance, we could look at the likes of Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) and Koss Corporation (NASDAQ: KOSS). On one hand, some would argue that Tesla is a high-profile meme stock. This would be thanks to social media posts by CEO Elon Musk influencing the performance of TSLA stock in the past. Worth noting, the company officially launched its Giga Berlin manufacturing plant near Germany yesterday. On the other hand, audio hardware firm Koss also appears to be regaining steam with gains of over 20% just this week. All in all, there seems to be plenty of attention on meme stocks now. Should you be keen to jump on the meme trend, here are four to watch.

Meme Stocks To Buy [Or Sell] This Week

GameStop Corporation

To begin with, we will be taking a look at the flagship meme stock firm, GameStop. In brief, it is the largest video game retailer in the world. Through its vast network of operations, GameStop brings video games, consumer electronics, and gaming merchandise to consumers. For a sense of scale, the company currently operates out of 4,816 stores spanning the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Europe. Not to mention, GameStop is also actively focusing on its e-commerce strategy. The likes of which it has been working on since the pandemic initially impacted its brick-and-mortar services.

More importantly, GameStop is making stock market headlines again today thanks to the latest movement in GME stock. Following a 30% rally yesterday, investors appear to be tuning their radars back to the company’s shares. As a result, GME stock alongside its meme stock peers are once again at the forefront today. Also worth mentioning, GameStop chairman Ryan Cohen reportedly bought 100,000 shares in the company earlier this week. With retail investors seemingly buying into the current hype, will you be investing in GME stock?
