#MEMEAct The #MEMEAct (Mitigating Excessive Market Exploitation Act) is a proposed U.S. law aimed at regulating social media-driven stock manipulation, especially during viral “meme stock” events like GameStop and AMC. It seeks to increase transparency, protect small investors, and hold influencers or platforms accountable for spreading misleading financial information. The act would empower the SEC to monitor online discussions impacting markets. Supporters say it ensures fairness, while critics argue it might limit free speech. As social media and finance become increasingly connected, the #MEMEAct raises important questions about ethics, regulation, and investor protection in the digital age.
