The stock trading platform and its owner, Morgan Stanley, are concerned about possible stock manipulation, people familiar with the matter said.
Gill, best known as Roaring Kitty, started Tweet on his account After nearly three years of silence, on May 12th. Most of the posts contain memes or film clips, so it has not been confirmed whether Gill is the controller of the account. His account on Reddit also began posting screenshots of his portfolio at E*Trade, showing various bets on GameStop, with Tuesday’s screenshot showing his assets were worth $289 million.
Morgan Stanley had no comment when asked to confirm the report. Gill did not immediately respond to a direct message sent via X.
Since the Roaring Kitty account was reactivated, GameStop’s stock price has begun to rise, but not in the same way as in 2021. Nearly $65 on May 14th, two days after the May 12 post.
