GME Stock Price: GameStop Corp. bounces from four-week lows, not out of the woods yet

• NYSE: GME gained 0.06% as the broader markets rebounded to close out the week.
• GameStop and other meme stocks are the subject of the Federal Reserve stability report on the state of the financial world.
• Low trading volume may be signalling the end to meme stocks as we know them.

Update May 11: GameStop Corp (NYSE: GME) tumbled over 11% on Monday to hit four-week lows of $143, in line with the broader market sell-off, as rising inflation fears spooked investors. Expectations that the Fed could act earlier than expected to tame inflation hit the Wall Street indices. The GME stock fell for the fourth straight session, starting out a fresh week. However, the stock managed to recover about 1% in post-market trading and recaptured the $144 threshold. The stock risks further downside, as investors believe it appears fundamentally unstable, with 140X earnings multiple unable to justify the struggling Texas-based company's eCommerce prospects.
