GameStop Corp’s unprofitability reaches $25 billion

After the Reddit-based community, r/WallStreetBets, allegedly pushed the stocks of GameStop Corp to unbelievable levels, the unprofitability of the company reached $25 billion.

However, this has been affecting other companies across the world as well. The short stocked shares in Europe are surging. Evotec SE, the German pharmaceutical company closed 9.6% in Frankfurt. Pearson Plc closed 13.97% in London.

The hit was not felt in Europe as much as it did in the USA after the Reddit-based community pushed up the stocks of GameStop Corp by 685%.

The gammers community has always had a bitter-sweet relation with the world’s largest retail gaming destination for their controversial sales gimmicks. The retail line holds a monopoly over the gamers, and it had allegedly been taking advantage of the fact by selling open copies of games. It was involved in many other falsifications like that.

Other companies are also bearing the brunt of this as stocks are fluctuating.

All investors-big or small are making the most of the moment. Institutional investors are reversing their shots. Many small investors in India are also taking benefit from the situation though they are not allowed to take leverage from non-Indian stocks.
