Shares in video game retailer GameStop surged as much as 118% on Monday after meme stock investor "Roaring Kitty" posted a cryptic image in X, in his first post in the online platform in about three years.
Roaring Kitty, who became one of the key promotors of the 2021 rally in GameStop and in other companies such as movie theater chain AMC, posted a picture of a person who leans forward while gripping a game controller.
