    January 22, 2026, 8:38 AM EST. GameStop Corp (NYSE: GME) shares rose 3.27% in premarket trading on January 22, 2026, after Chairman and CEO Ryan Cohen revealed a substantial increase in his stake by buying 500,000 shares for $10.8 million. This follows an identical purchase the prior day, raising his holdings to over 42 million shares, about 9.3% of the company. Cohen emphasized the importance of executive share ownership to align with shareholders, stating CEOs who don't buy shares personally "should be fired."
