Keith Gill — the meme-stock investor known online as “Roaring Kitty” — appears to have exited his entire options position in GameStop Corp. while adding to his heap of shares.
A screenshot on Gill’s Reddit account on Thursday showed his portfolio no longer included the 120,000 GameStop call options that were set to expire next week and had a strike price of $20. Instead, his portfolio showed a position of more than nine million common shares, up from five million earlier this week.
