The 2020 retail investor battle against Wall Street was the most dramatic mass movement in the financial sector since the Occupy Wall Street movement of 2011, with aftershocks that have not yet subsided, and meme culture has thereby become a prominent field of study. Last week, Roaring Kitty, the "leader" of the retail investor battle against Wall Street, returned to Twitter after many years. His new tweets garnered over 20 million views, and GameStop stock triggered five circuit breakers in a single day, surging 110%. One week before Roaring Kitty's return, hosts Sha Qingqing and a programmer happened to discuss an episode based on the movie Dumb Money, which was inspired by the retail investor battle against Wall Street, so we urgently released it.
