The stock price of GameStop (NYSE: GME) saw a large 14% fall yesterday (Nov 23) after a sharp rise over the recent weeks. Despite yesterday’s fall, GME stock is up 23% over the last month, while it is up a very large 1035% year-to-date. The stock has been very volatile this year driven by a broader rally seen in “meme” stocks (refers to the stocks that see growth primarily fueled by social media attention). The Reddit mentions and elevated short interest contributed to the rise in GME stock this year. That said, there is no company-specific news to support the stock price rally over the recent weeks. In fact, given the lack of fundamentals, it is best for long term investors to avoid the stock, in our view. In fact, the price estimate of $88 per average of analyst forecasts reflects a large 60% downside from the current levels.

Now, what about the near term? Is GME stock poised to see even higher levels or is a fall imminent? Based on our machine learning analysis of trends in the stock price over the last ten years, GME stock can move in either direction with nearly an equal chance of a fall or a rise across five-days, ten-days, as well as the twenty-one days period, implying that the stock is best avoided for now. See our analysis on GameStop Stock Return for more details.

While GME stock may move in either direction, it is helpful to see how its peers stack up.

Also, if meme stocks at-large see a broader rally, it is likely that GME stock will also see higher levels.
