The bullish bounce came at the end of the day as BBIG surged into the closing bell, erasing the losses from earlier in the day. The move higher also came alongside a push by the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 which managed to finish the day in the green after trending lower for the better part of the session. The NASDAQ was the lone major index to close in the red, as it edged lower by 0.03%.

Meanwhile, GameStop (NYSE:GME), ContextLogic (NASDAQ:WISH), and SmileDirectClub (NASDAQ:SDC) all traded lower on Friday. Vinco Ventures put an end to its recent five day losing streak, but still closes the week down over 11%. The NFT and Blockchain-based company had a nice run up to its all-time high price of $12.49, but has done little in the way of showing investors it will return to those levels in the near future.
