The broader stock market continues to climb towards newer heights this week despite the backdrop of rising coronavirus cases. At the same time, meme stocks continue to gain regardless of criticisms over their social media hype-fueled rallies. Sure, the meme stock trade may not be for every type of investor out there today. After all, the explosive gains on display do come with a fair bit of volatility alongside. However, more adventurous investors have and continue to benefit from jumping on the meme trend this year.

Evidently, we can see that GameStop (NYSE: GME), the flagship meme stock, remains a hot pick among retail investors. Year-to-date, GME stock is currently sitting on monumental gains of over 900%. This would be after the company’s shares surged by 27% during intraday trading yesterday. As a result, other companies in the meme stock sector such as Bed, Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY) jumped as well. Overall, I can understand if all this has you keen on getting a piece of the action now. With that in mind, could one of these trending meme stocks be worth top picks in the stock market today?

Virgin Galactic Holdings Inc.

Following that, we will be taking a look at Virgin Galactic Holdings, or SPCE for short. For the uninitiated, the company is among the key players in the space tourism industry now. Through its operations, SPCE is actively developing and refining its advanced air and space vehicles. Given the hype around the idea of commercial space travel, SPCE stock would be a likely name among meme stocks now. As it stands, the company’s shares currently trade at $26.70 as of 11:18 a.m. ET. The real question now is, would all this make SPCE stock a wise investment now?

Well, for one thing, the company appears to be making progress on the operational front. Earlier this month, SPCE reopened ticket sales for its space flights. Safe to say, the company’s ideal market would be the uber-rich for now, given the $450,000 price tag for a seat. By SPCE’s estimates, commercial flights could start as early as 2022 as more test missions are carried out. According to CEO Michael Coglazier, all of this would serve to further bolster “renewed public interest” in SPCE’s current offerings. All in all, would this make SPCE stock a top buy now?
