Meme Stock Pops 42%

Good morning Wake-up Watchlisters! While you’re sipping coffee you’ll see stock futures fell on Wednesday. Investors are preparing for the Federal Reserve’s latest interest-rate decision. The latest data from the UK showed inflation unexpectedly accelerated in February, surpassing all economists’ forecasts and further complicating global markets.

With inflation still a major issue, it’s crucial to look at different ways to build wealth. This is why our friend Marc Lichtenfeld is talking about a unique way to potentially make passive income from the oil and gas surge. It’s not a stock or private company… and you could collect monthly income over and over again… for life.

Here’s a look at the top-moving stocks this morning.

Gamestop (NYSE: GME)

Gamestop is up 42.83% premarket after posting a surprise fourth quarter adjusted profit of 16 cents per share. Wall Street had been expecting a loss of 15 cents per share. Short interest in the flagship meme stock is about 21%, and analyst Ihor Dusankiwsky expects a big short covering tomorrow.

AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE: AMC)

AMC Entertainment is up 11.79% premarket as the fellow meme stock got a boost following Gamestop’s 42% rally. 2022 was a devastating year for AMC, with the stock starting at 27.20 and ending the year at 4.07, a miserable 85% loss. So far in 2023, it’s off to a better start with shares more than doubling from its year-end close of 4.07.

Petco Health and Wellness Company (Nasdaq: WOOF)

Petco is down 9.54% premarket after its latest earnings report. The company delivered net revenue of $1.58 billion, up 4.2 percent versus the prior year.
