    GTT stock gained volatility in stock price in-exchange for delay in zombie activity thanks to Redditors

    WallStreetBets and meme-based stocks’ trade actions now have unpredictable reactions in the market beyond the usual volatility. This was obvious previously with the shorted companies that were rescued by the “army of Redditors” that came to the rescue of these stocks with their retail trading diaspora. However, that was only the beginning since now companies that are on the verge or have declared bankruptcies have become zombies but still suddenly show spike in the share price of their stock. This is due to the bidding up of shares done by the Redditors.

However, these zombies are now climbing the charts at an average 30% in 2021.

    Some analysts and experts of trading view this phenomena as only the beginning and already credit analysts are trying to get used to the fact that when looking into the balance sheet for debt of certain issuers it is becoming a norm to account for the inflation in the account equity valuations caused by Reddit-drive trade. Companies like Gamecorps Inc. and AMC have been able to monetize on these valuations.

    GTT was one of the companies that was considering a bankruptcy plan which would devastate the shareholders through the Chapter 11. However the company’s stock is up 13% today in the market. On 3rd June, after sinking to $1, GTT stock jumped up to $4.75 on intraday high because its trading cues attracted the Redditor’s attention; small market cap and shorted interests.
