Flip Floppin’ Friday – Closing out a Wild Week

What a ride.  

GameStop (GME) went from $75 to $483 to $112 and now $335 pre-market and it's like watching a ball bounce around a roulette wheel at the moment except, at least on a roulette wheel – the numbers fall within a particular range.  This, on the other hand, IS CRAZY!
