Memesters took the likes of Kohl’s and Krispy Kreme on a wild ride.

Social media buzzed with excitement on Monday as some beaten-down stocks that retail traders have been buying began to soar. Kohl's, Opendoor Technologies, Krispy Kreme and Rocket Cos. were among the names that posted outsized swings throughout the week.

Kohl’s Corp shares briefly doubled in value to a ten-month high of $21.23 on July 22, making it one of the most traded stocks on retail platforms. The chain became the latest “meme stock,” as the surge in trading was driven by online discussions on platforms like Reddit’s WallStreetBets.
