apes
Retail traders piling into the same trade as one feral pack.
Definitions
Self-applied badge for retail traders — especially the GameStop and AMC crowd — who buy and hold a stock collectively to squeeze hedge funds. The lore: 'apes together strong,' borrowed from Planet of the Apes. Wearing the label is a flex of solidarity and a wink at the meme that they're too dumb to sell.
