What Caught Our Attention in the Investment World? – Week of June 14-18, 2021

By Kuldip K. Ambastha

On Monday, June 14, 2021, the stock of Corsair Gaming, Inc. (CRSR) had a +11.2% gain for the trading day. Why? Corsair Gaming is a new meme stock being followed closely by people on Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets and other online platforms. Corsair Gaming provides high-performance hardware equipment for videogame players and content creators. The company has benefited from lockdowns initiated worldwide due to the coronavirus pandemic. With more and more people staying at home, the company’s hardware equipment saw greater demand than in the past. If and when public health conditions massively improve in the future, this greater demand may fade away. Retail investors on Monday, June 14, 2021 were able to generate a big gain for the trading day through Corsair Gaming, but the rest of the trading week saw negative trading day returns posted instead for the stock. As always, the future is uncertain and only time will tell if Corsair Gaming can deliver strong, positive trading day gains going forward.
