NASDAQ:GME 1 December 2025 - 3 June 2026

GRAPEVINE, Texas, June 2, 2026, 16:59 CDT GameStop Corp. turned in its biggest ever quarterly net income and announced a $2 billion share buyback Tuesday. The retailer, which has shifted focus further into trading cards, toys and collectibles, reported first-quarter net income of $389.6 million, up from $44.8 million a year ago.

GameStop popped roughly 4.2% around midday in New York on Wednesday, with GME close to $25.49 as traders rotated back into the meme-stock following a quick promotional burst and new talk about CEO Ryan Cohen’s capital moves. Shares briefly touched $25.73, with more than 5.3 million changing hands. GameStop isn’t just a videogame retailer anymore, and that’s driving investor interest. The focus has shifted to its $9.0 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, as well as its Bitcoin bets and the hope that Ryan Cohen finds a way to leverage that balance sheet into something bigger—even as the retail operation keeps losing ground. GameStop last month reported that net sales for the fourth quarter dropped to $1.104 billion from $1.283 billion a year ago.

New York, Feb 1, 2026, 09:27 — Market closed. GameStop Corp shares closed Friday roughly 5% higher at $23.88. The boost came after CEO Ryan Cohen highlighted a major acquisition, fueling interest as the stock heads into Monday’s session.

GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen revealed the company is targeting a “very, very, very big” acquisition of a publicly traded consumer firm, one far larger than GameStop itself. He described the deal as “transformational” during an interview with CNBC. Cohen emphasized he’s after an undervalued company with a “sleepy management team,” though he didn’t drop any names. Shares of GameStop jumped 4.78% on Friday, closing at $23.88, according to Yahoo Finance. Cohen’s remarks arrive as he attempts to reposition GameStop as a Berkshire Hathaway-style holding company, anchored by a massive cash reserve. He told The Wall Street Journal this move could be “genius or totally, totally foolish,” according to Investing.com. The report noted that GameStop holds about $9 billion in cash, and Cohen called Michael Burry “one of the few investors I respect.”

New York, Jan 31, 2026, 05:05 EST — The market has closed. GameStop shares climbed 4.7% to finish Friday at $23.88, hitting an intraday high of $24.01. The stock extended gains in after-hours trading, reaching $24.84.

New York, Jan 30, 2026, 05:17 EST — Premarket Shares of GameStop Corp. slipped around 3.6% in premarket trading Friday, dropping to $22.81 following a $23.66 close.

NEW YORK, January 27, 2026, 04:56 ET — Premarket Shares of GameStop Corp climbed roughly 2% in premarket action Tuesday, extending gains following a strong rally the day before fueled by new remarks from investor Michael Burry.

GameStop shares climbed in premarket action Thursday following CEO Ryan Cohen’s purchase of an additional 500,000 shares, a regulatory filing revealed. His stake in the videogame retailer now stands at roughly 9.3%. The consecutive purchases have thrust Cohen’s personal stake back into focus at a company still working to persuade investors that its turnaround extends beyond just trimming expenses.

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 08:12 — Premarket GameStop Corp shares rose 3.1% to $21.29 in premarket trading on Thursday after the company laid out a long-term pay package for CEO Ryan Cohen that could run to about $35 billion if the top targets are met. The award hinges on GameStop lifting its market value to $100 billion and producing $10 billion in cumulative performance EBITDA, a measure of operating profit before interest, taxes and some non-cash costs.

GRAPEVINE, Texas, January 7, 2026, 09:30 CST GameStop on Wednesday granted CEO Ryan Cohen a performance-based stock option award that could be worth roughly $35 billion if he can lift the videogame retailer’s market value to $100 billion and meet profit targets, Reuters calculated. The package offers no guaranteed salary or cash bonus, the company said. Reuters

December 22, 2025 — Michael Burry is back in the spotlight, and not just for “The Big Short.” In recent days, the famously contrarian investor has revisited one of the most talked-about trades of the past decade: his early, deeply discounted bet on GameStop — and the uncomfortable truth that he exited before the meme-stock frenzy turned the ticker into a cultural phenomenon. Business Insider+1 At the same time, GameStop’s path into 2026 is increasingly being defined less by nostalgia for 2021 and more by a business reality Wall Street can model: a growing collectibles segment that management and analysts view as one of the retailer’s clearest bright spots. The company’s merchandising playbook is showing up in places investors don’t usually associate with “turnarounds” — including exclusive tie-ins and pre-order promotions around major gaming releases like Capcom’s upcoming Resident Evil Requiem.
