InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips
Vinco Ventures (NASDAQ:BBIG) stock could be the next target of a major short squeeze if one analyst is pegging it right. That comes as meme stocks start to lose out on a rally that began earlier this week. With it dying down, retail traders are likely already looking for their next short squeeze targets and that could include BBIG stock.
Vinco Ventures is a selective acquisitions company that seeks to buy digital media and content technologies companies. Its goal is to grow its business by making acquisitions that set it up with growth opportunities.
