US Stock Market Move | The latest "meme stock" is out! Kohl's (KSS.US) surged nearly 90% at one point.
Cole Department Store surged nearly 90% at one point, with trading volume skyrocketing.
On Tuesday, Kohl's (KSS.US) surged nearly 90% at one point with a sharp increase in trading volume, making it the latest "meme stock" popular among Reddit retail investors. As of press time, the stock had risen more than 37% to $14.32. Kohl's currently has about 53 million shares being shorted, accounting for 49% of its 112 million outstanding shares. Such a high short interest makes it an ideal target for short sellers to cover their positions. Market analysts generally believe that this surge is driven by retail investors on Reddit forums, similar to the frenzy of "meme stocks" like GameStop Corp. Class A (GME.US) and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. Class A (AMC.US) from earlier this year. With retail investors buying in, short sellers are forced to cover their positions, further driving up the stock price and creating a "short squeeze" effect, pushing the stock price sharply higher in the short term.
