Grimes shares some “financial poetry” about the GameStop shares saga

Grimes has shared some “financial poetry” on the subject of the ongoing GameStop shares saga.

Shares in the US video game retailer soared last week after a Reddit-organised group of small traders bought GameStop shares in bulk in response to hedge fund short-sellers on Wall Street betting against it – resulting in big losses for a number of major investors.

Grimes shared a few poetic verses on the subject of GameStop last week in response to the story, initially tweeting: “In the vast ocean / My tear is a drop / My dollar a single photon / Of the light of GameStop”.

She continued her “financial poetry” by sharing more poetic words on the saga – you can see her tweet below.

Writing in response to one fan who enquired about “what’s going on” more generally, Grimes later said that she was currently “finishing [her new] record and making the visuals”.

Grimes also spoke about her next music project during a YouTube Q&A late last week, hinting that she may release new music in the next few months – coronavirus-permitting.

“MUSIC IS READY BUT BUSINESS IS NOT,” she wrote. “ALSO DUNNO IF CAN SHOOT MUSIC VIDEOS WITH COVID SO WE SEE.”






In other GameStop news, a movie about the shares saga is already in the works after MGM reportedly acquired a book proposal from New York Times best-selling author Ben Mezrich.
