- Redbox’s time as a meme stock is likely over already.

NASDAQ:RDBX dropped lower for the third straight day as any momentum from the recent short squeeze has faded as quickly as it arrived.

Redbox could already be seeing its spotlight fading as meme stock traders move on to the next stock to squeeze. Although short interest still remains high for Redbox, daily average trading volume continues to trend downwards. On Wednesday, only 8 million shares changed hands compared to the recent average of 21 million shares per day during the height of its mania. Short squeezes rely on both a high short interest and a high trading volume to send the stock higher. Unfortunately for RDBX investors who are looking for another squeeze, that ship may have already sailed.
Redbox stock price
Redbox-rival Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) saw its stock surge by 4.67% on Wednesday as the company was linked to Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and its Google Ad services. Netflix has been planning to add ad-support to its platform to boost revenues to help its struggling business. While this might not be welcome news to customers, it is apparently being well received by its shareholders.
