May 13, 2024 9:52 AM

Robinhood Markets, Inc. ( HOOD ) shares are trading higher Monday after Roaring Kitty returned to social media and sparked a meme stock revival. Here's a look at what's going on. 

What To Know:

Shares of GameStop, AMC Entertainment and other meme stock names are racing higher on renewed interest from retail investors after Keith Gill, a.k.a Roaring Kitty, posted a meme to his X account Sunday night. 

The meme depicts a gamer sitting up to focus more attentively and has ushered in a return of meme stock mania Monday. 

Robinhood shares are also climbing on heavy trading volume, possibly due to the trading platform's association with the original pandemic-era meme stock rally and its popularity among retail investors.
