Sociopolitical Documentary hosted by James Clayton, published by BBC broadcasted as part of BBC Our World series in 2021 – English narration

.

In January 2021, something very strange happened on the US stock market. The shares of GameStop, an unfashionable high street games store, suddenly went through the roof and kept rising. As a result, a group of hedge funds unexpectedly found themselves losing millions of dollars.
The giant price spike turned out to be the work of a committed band of amateur online investors – many of whom were out to get their revenge on the titans of Wall Street for the financial crash. Mayhem on the markets ensued. So was this a David versus Goliath clash as many claim? And if so, who really won?
James Clayton meets the investors who made a fortune trading from their bedrooms, the tech supremos who were watching on astonished and the hedge fund giants who are now nursing their losses.
