Roundhill Meme Stock ETF

MEME

On this week's episode of ETF Prime, Cinthia Murphy, Investment Strategist at VettaFi, joins Nate Geraci to unpack the overwhelming wave of new ETF launches hitting the market. Geraci notes that October alone saw more than 100 new ETFs debut, marking one of the busiest months in ETF history.

The Roundhill Meme Stock ETF targets "meme stocks," those with strong recent social media sentiment. That might lead to stock gains, but can also turn out like the wild ride of Gamestop (GME) back in 2021-2022. MEME first opened in 2021, closed in 2023, and re-opened in 2025, indicating the inconsistent nature of meme stock investing.

Roundhill Meme Stock ETF has relaunched after previously closing due to poor timing and performance during the original meme stock craze. MEME aims to capitalize on the enduring influence of retail investors and meme stock momentum with an actively managed, responsive approach. Roundhill's CEO emphasizes MEME as a tool for investors to access the power of trending stocks dominating market conversations.

Dave Mazza of Roundhill Investments talks about his firm's MEME ETF after it added Beyond Meat (BYND) to the portfolio. The stock saw extreme volatility over the last few days, trading as low as 50 cents last Thursday, to as high as $8.86 in Wednesday's premarket hours.

CNBC's “Fast Money” team discusses the options market and meme stocks with OpenInterest.PRO's Mike Khouw.

Social media buzz and high short-interest have driven spectacular gains in Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:BYND) stock this week. But, has the fierce rally already fizzled — or will intense retail investor interest bring it back?

Beyond Meat Inc‘s (NASDAQ:BYND) amazing rally this week points to the increasing power of thematic ETFs to propel near-term market action, especially when retail sentiment and ETF flows intersect.

Walmart and Roundhill Investments MEME ETF created big headlines for Beyond Meat spiking the stock which had been left for dead after hitting a record low earlier this month.

The food company surged more than 127% Monday in its best day ever, and continued its rally Tuesday.
