Amid a renewed wave of meme stocks driven by retail investors on social media, Wendy's shares continued their sharp rally for a second consecutive day. The stock surged another 12% in premarket trading after a 25.7% gain the previous session, its biggest daily advance since June 2021, according to CNBC data.
The move is disconnected from the company's fundamentals, as Wendy's has issued no material earnings or operational news. The surge mirrors the rallies seen in GameStop and AMC shares in 2021 and 2024, fueled by recommendations and hashtags spreading through trading communities on Reddit and Twitter. As of the close on June 24, the stock was trading around $6.26 (per market data), compared to $13 a week earlier.
