Hedge fund billionaire Dan Loeb, chief executive of Third Point, underlined an emerging trend in traditional markets that tops fundamental analysis.

The renowned investor expressed his concerns over the rising dominance of retail traders in shaping market trends. Particularly from platforms like Reddit’s WallStreetBets.

Dan Loeb’s remarks stem from his observation that “fundamental analysis is increasingly taking a back seat to monitor daily option expiries and Reddit message boards.” This assertion came as a response to the surge in meme stocks. Furthermore, everyday traders began to outperform Wall Street professionals by betting against them.

Such events led to eye-popping rallies in companies like Tupperware, Nikola, and Yellow. Subsequently, imposing staggering losses on short sellers, which in some cases amounted to approximately $435 million.
