NYSE:GME investors are likely relieved to see some green to start the week after the popular meme stock fell by over 12% last week. Shares of GameStop gained 1.15% on Monday and closed the first trading day of the week at $202.01. While the stock has had a bit of a pullback as of late, it is still trading above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which shows a generally bullish long-term uptrend.
