So the squeeze is still going on, and Gamestop stock is flirting with $50/share today. Pretty crazy considering how low it was just a few months ago.

I bought $2000 worth of GME back in March.

Not really sure if I should sell now or hold on.

Not going to lie I bought some stock a few months ago when it was low as a gamble and this has turned out great for me. Basically paid off my next gen consoles.

Despite being the OP I have not had a stake in GameStop since August (sold at 50% gains like a dummy). For anyone with holdings, I'd recommend holding through this as tempting as it may be to sell. With no more shares available for shorting, the real squeeze could send this over $100 very soon. Set MULTIPLE stop orders at a price you are willing to sell at to be safe. Do NOT set all-or-none trades as those are not guaranteed to go through.

Godspeed.

Lol GameStop is going to be worth more now than it was before digital games even existed? I hate this market

New gen and transitioning to E-Commerce has helped their stock immensely. Along with overperforming expectations over the holidays.

Man, stocks scare the shit out of me. Never invested before. Total layman here. You turned $2000 into $18,000 in....less than a year? Wtf.

Buying regular stocks isn't that scary, it's predicting and buying options. That's where you hear about those crazy r/Wallstreetbets stories.

Lol wow. I was going to buy some GME last week when the price rocketed to 30+, but I figured I missed the boat and was going to drop hard. Now it's 60+. I suck.

I've seen people say they quit their jobs to trade stocks and they are still going up

If you would have posted that you bought Gamestop stock months ago on this enthusiast site, you would have been laughed at to death in here. They probably would have told you the Gamestop would have been dead by now, lol.

It just goes to show that no one knows the path a company will take no matter how much they rage, how much they thumb their nose, companies will usually go in the direction opposite speculation. Since stocks are rising I promise people will now tell you, "It's going to tank in a few weeks, or a month, etc.."

I guess it's going to go from 50 to 100 in a single day because why not, companies aren't valued by thier bank accounts or earnings anymore so anything can worth as much as you want it to be

Might as well send it's stock price to 1,000 2,000 etc

This is just amazing to see. Buying stocks when Gamestop was at it lowest, depending on how many shares you buy, is a fucking gut check indeed. Lol. Everything and everyone goes against the reasoning for doing it, but you stick with it, and look what happens.

This is just like when people scoffed at me for buying BitCoin at $3400 a coin last year after it surged, and then dropped like a rock. Now that was a fucking gut check.
