Who Is Keith Gill, the Roaring Kitty Whose Tweets Are Driving GameStop's Surge?

Keith Gill, a former financial analyst, is the mind behind the Roaring Kitty YouTube channel, where he shares his stock-tracking routine and investment strategies.

Gill's videos have garnered a loyal following, and his tweets have been credited with helping to fuel the recent surge in GameStop's stock price.

Gill, who was born in 1986, previously worked as a financial analyst for MassMutual. He started the Roaring Kitty channel in 2019 as a way to share his investment knowledge with others. The channel has since grown to over 700,000 subscribers.

In his videos, Gill provides detailed breakdowns of his investment strategies, including his use of options and leverage. He also offers general advice on investing and financial planning.

Gill's tweets have also been influential in the recent GameStop saga. In January 2021, Gill tweeted that he had purchased a large number of GameStop shares. This tweet helped to spark a surge in interest in the stock, which led to a short squeeze that caused the stock price to rise dramatically.

Gill has since become a target of criticism from some who believe that he is manipulating the market. However, his supporters argue that he is simply sharing his investment strategies with others and that he is not responsible for the actions of others.

As of May 2024, Gill continues to post videos on his Roaring Kitty channel and tweet about his investment strategies. His channel has become a must-watch for many investors, and his tweets are closely followed by those looking for insights into the market.
