GameStop was an obvious choice since a fifth-grader had an emotional connection to the company."We were always there two years ago, just buying different video games. I wanted to give him the shares of GameStop, so he could have something tangible to hold on to and that way he can appreciate it."No one could have imagined that 10 shares bought for $60 then would be worth $3200 now. On January 27, Mrs. Carr's phone started buzzing with notifications about the stock surge. Her son eventually sold his shares for $320 each. He said,"I wanted to sell it then and there because I knew it could drop in seconds."His GameStop shares had been a Kwanzaa gift from is mom, and he’d held on to them since he was 8 years old. But when the time was right to sell them, he knew it. Oh, he’s 10.https://t.co/ennmn7bnPX— MarketWatch (@MarketWatch) January 30, 2021Later during the interview, Mrs. Carr revealed that after her husband had passed away, she took it upon herself to teach her son about investing, saving, credit card debt, and other financial concepts that should be common knowledge."We're African American. You don't see a lot of that in our community. I wanted to give him a step up when it comes to learning these things because I learned it later in life and I wish I had known sooner. He's my legacy and I have to make sure that he's prepared for the future."Great story - love that his mom has been teaching him about financial management! This should be a nice motivator.— Monica Bonny (@monicabonny) January 31, 2021GameStop's surgeGameStop stock has shot up more than 1,500% at the moment. The gains have largely been due to the r/wallstreetbets, who bulk-bought the stock to hurt short-sellers and hedge funds.Not at all. Just Wall Street finding out the system they created for short selling stocks backfired. System should’ve never existed in the first place. Betting on companies to lose value. No respect for all those Wall Street brokers and fund managers.
