GME

Dead video game store whose stock faced a short squeeze because of the popular subreddit r/wallstreetbets after Youtuber Roaring Kitty (also known on reddit as r/deepfuckingvalue) noticed that the stock was illegally shorted 140%. The stock rise caused the hedge fund Melvin Capital to lose billions and be bailed out by Citadel, the same hedge fund that pays 40% of Robinhood's income in return for user data. This lead Robindhood's CEO to limit stock purchases of GME on Robinhood.

This called into question the idea of a free market and whether the real wolves on wall street are the hedge funds or ordinary people.

"GME to the moon 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀"
"What can I say? I like the stock "
