“#Trevor Noah gets bubbly with Margot Robbie Game<\/a>Stop explainer<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

GameStop won\u2019t stop \u2014 and even Trevor Noah and Margot Robbie are taking a bath Thursday after the company\u2019s infamous $5.5 billion stock surge controversy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Daily Show\u201d host digitally inserted himself<\/a> into Robbie\u2019s bubble-bath scene from 2015\u2019s financial crash drama \u201cThe Big Short<\/a>\u201d\u00a0as a way to explain the convoluted situation to the confused masses.<\/p>\n

The now-viral clip was created Wednesday after a rowdy Reddit<\/a> message board infamously sparked rookie investors to surge stocks in the video-game retailer \u2014 after the wolves of Wall Street bet on its stock prices falling. <\/p>\n

When the flummoxed Twitterverse put out its \u201cbig wish\u201d for the 30-year-old Oscar nominee to reprise her bubbly scene to explain all the GameStop stock drama, Noah heeded their call instead.<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically, there\u2019s a group of people on Reddit who don\u2019t use the stock market to invest, they use it to gamble,\u201d Noah, 36, says in the high-concept, low-budget bit. \u201cAnd, yeah, that\u2019s what a lot of serious investors do, too \u2014 but these guys on Reddit are more honest about it, and they love to troll the people who aren\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

His Twitter followers were quick to sound-off in the comments.<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on, Trevor. You know it\u2019s only wrong and unethical when dirty commoners do it!\u201d one Twitter wit posted<\/a>. \u201cWhen rich people do that we put them on a pedestal, follow them on Twitter, and let them influence government policies to further damn the lower class. *Sexy* \u201c<\/p>\n

\u201cThey only like insider trading so they tried to put a hault [sic] to the outsiders trading,\u201d another chimed in<\/a>. \u201cBut this isn\u2019t about GameStop. This is about the everyman.\u201d<\/p>\n

GameStop was languishing below $5 a share as recently as September, but it started taking off after entrepreneur Ryan Cohen, founder of Chewy.com,\u00a0took a stake, saying the struggling mall retailer was ripe for a financial rebound. On Jan. 11, GameStop announced it would\u00a0add three new directors\u00a0to its board.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when GameStop\u2019s stock got turbocharged and its biggest investors started reaping billions. <\/p>\n
