Kohl’s Corp shares briefly doubled in value to a ten-month high of $21.23 on July 22, making it one of the most traded stocks on retail platforms. The chain became the latest “meme stock,” as the surge in trading was driven by online discussions on platforms like Reddit’s WallStreetBets.

Huge interest in the Menomonee Falls-based retailer's stock drove so many trades July 22 that trading was briefly suspended. The rally came after online forums talked up shares in the retailer, which has suffered from sales slumps and corporate leadership turnover.

Few people would have picked Kohl’s stock as a candidate for a double. Thanks to a “gamma squeeze,” it became the latest meme-trade darling to gain more than 100% in a single day.
