There wasn’t a lot of meme stock action in 2022, but 2023 has been a different story so far. Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY) has seen plenty of meme options action, and so has Carvana (CVNA), which appears to be the latest choice for meme stock traders. On a huge up day for the stock last week, over 500,000 options traded, including a large bullish call spread that expires at the end of January.
