Briefly: Shares of original meme stocks GameStop Corp and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc are surging again and Jim Cramer believes he knows what’s coming next.

What To Know: Keith Gill, also known as “Roaring Kitty” on YouTube and X or “DeepF***ingValue” on Reddit, posted a screenshot on Reddit over the weekend suggesting he currently has a $116 million position on GameStop.

So: The image showed a pair of unconfirmed bullish positions, including 5 million shares of the video game retailer and 120,000 call options expiring later this month. GameStop shares spiked in early trading Monday, sparking a rally in several meme stocks and high short-interest names such as AMC.

Basically: Monday on CNBC’s “Squawk On The Street,” Cramer suggested piling into the meme names to try to catch a piece of the rally are likely going to get burned.

Cramer’s Take: GameStop is well capitalized, but video games can easily be bought and downloaded without having to go to physical retail locations and the company hasn’t provided a clear mission moving forward, Cramer said.
