GameStop rises 3% while Unity software pops 8% as "Roaring Kitty" Keith Gill's post sparks speculation.
Keith Gill, aka Roaring Kitty, the retail trading icon behind the 2021 GameStop Corp. rally, posted a Rick James-themed GIF on X, sparking speculation about potential market movements among retail investors.
The post, featuring Dave Chappelle‘s Rick James impersonation, comes amid Gill’s recent return to social media after a three-year hiatus. His May 2024 comeback coincided with significant market movements, as GameStop shares surged over 50% following his first posts.
One user noted, “In the skit he is referencing, Rick James punches Charlie Murphy in the face and says ‘UNITY!’ However, to be clear, I have no idea what Roaring Kitty is actually trying to communicate. I just think it would be funny if it was Unity.”
