Description

The sea shanties, YOLO’ s, and red bandanas aren’ t even half of the GameStop story.Did you know Robinhood didn’ t initiate their infamous trading halt?Did you know why Redditors refer to 2021 as the “ sneeze” rather than the squeeze?Did you know that shares in your brokerage account might be counterfeits?If not, buckle up.Witness firsthand the real and utterly ludicrous hivemind that brought Wall Street to its knees in January 2021, and find out why GameStop was only the beginning of an even more unprecedented retail contagion, one which will challenge everything you think you know about our markets (all over again).In a digital world of frequently deleted, revised, and buried information, accurately piecing together events as they occurred is nearly impossible. Other authors and journalists have understandably struggled, but not author Rob Smat, who has been a witness to every part of the GameStop phenomenon, having lived it himself.

Author Biography:

In addition to his work as an author, Rob Smat is a writer and director of feature films. His work includes The Last Whistle (2019) and Walkout (2023), and upcoming books include The Wedding March, and The Birdhouse, as well as action/sci-fi novel, Backfill. Under his Reddit moniker u/MadSmatter, Rob has made the site’s esteemed front page a handful of times, thanks to posts about independent filmmaking, green bean casserole, and of course, GameStop.
