The Trolls of Wall Street: How the Outcasts and Insurgents are Hacking the Markets
The WallStreetBets crowd took on the hedge funds, and the joke turned into a market event.
Nathaniel Popper reports on the retail traders, forum culture and brokerage apps behind the GameStop episode and what surrounded it, following the individuals rather than the abstraction. It is a book about a subculture that discovered it could move prices, and about what happened to the people who were still holding when it ended.

Still in my pile is Nathaniel Popper’s The Trolls of Wall Street: How the Outcasts and Insurgents are Hacking the Markets, which covers the WallStreetBets phenomenon.
