I'm sure of today's speculative picks, some of them will turn out to be very successful. In /r/stocks, we love taking risks, so everyone is constantly putting out a bull case.
What were the SOFI, UPST, CLOV, PLTR, WISH, … stocks of the pre-2000s, or immediately post financial crisis, etc, that turned to be great picks?
AMD used to be trading like a penny stock, for example. Was it a 'meme' stock?
Obviously, every stock was once very cheap, but I'm looking for ones that had a 'meme' flavor in that they seemed absurd, pumped by excited investors while disparaged by the traditional big players.
Or perhaps, in what time period was it of a 'meme' variety, and when did it become a serious stock?
