Welcome to Episode #454 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast.

Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds, and ETFs and how it impacts your life.

This week, Tracey is going solo to look at the “new” meme stocks.

What’s a Meme Stock?

If you recall, in 2021, during the pandemic, there were stocks that traders jumped into to push the price higher. These were called “meme” stocks.

The most famous was Gamestop, which made some people rich as it soared on little news. Other old meme stocks were AMC and Bed Bath & Beyond, which went bankrupt.

This go around, the new meme craze was started by Opendoor. But it’s now been joined by Krispy Kreme, GoPro and Kohl’s.

Should investors buy these stocks?
