Author, The Revolution That Wasn't

January 31, 2022

On the one-year anniversary of the Gamestop stock squeeze that took over market headlines, what are the key lessons everyday investors need to understand from that weird, erratic phenomenon in financial history? What does it reveal about the Wall Street’s “game” and the true winners and losers? Are trading platforms like Robinhood helpful or harmful? And is this certain to happen again? Our guest is Spencer Jakab, award-winning financial journalist at the Wall Street Journal, former stock analyst, and author of The Revolution That Wasn’t: GameStop, Reddit, and the Fleecing of Small Investors.
