As senior producer/director at Capital.com, I'm responsible for crafting a new genre of financial explainers. Here's the latest film I made: a data-led explainer on the meme-driven phenomenon that is WallStreetBets. Based on extensive and original research by our in-house data journalists, it involved interviewing expert interviewees, and structuring and scripting an engaging narrative from reams of data.
WallStreetBets rocked the financial world in 2021—rallying retail #investors behind #memestocks. Exclusive research at Capital.com has drilled down into #WallStreetBets' data to understand the relationship between hype and #stockprice.
