Analyst Take: GameStop crushed expectations with revenue up 22% YoY and adjusted EPS nearly doubling Street forecasts. Massive cash pile ($8.7B) and $528M Bitcoin position give optionality, but the print raises fresh volatility questions given digital asset exposure.
Stock up 2.4% so far and more movement likely.
