This year, it has paid to follow what stocks Reddit's Wall Street Bets crowd is talking about, as several have gone through epic rallies, along with heightened volatility.

From GameStop in January to AMC Entertainment in June, the near 11 million-member forum has driven the conversation in so-called meme stocks that have exploded higher amid overwhelming demand from retail investors. Strong demand for stocks with shaky fundamentals has led to several hedge fund blowups that were caught on the opposite side of the trade betting against the company in question.

GameStop's short squeeze, in part led by the Wall Street Bets crowd, led to a more than 50% drawdown in multi-billion dollar hedge fund Melvin Capital. Meanwhile, the sharp rally in struggling movie theater chain AMC Entertainment caused billions of dollars in losses for short sellers in May and June.

But while some stocks popular with the Reddit crowd have seen massive gains, some have also seen epic losses. Many meme stocks have seen accelerating declines, with AMC Entertainment and GameStop both down more than 40% from their June highs.
