GameStop stock price is at $20.66 on January 6th 2026. Will it go past $25 by end of 2026?
Resolution Criteria
This market resolves YES if GME closes at or above $25 at any point on or before December 31, 2026. Resolution will be verified using closing prices from Yahoo Finance or NASDAQ. The market resolves NO if GME never reaches $25 by end of year.
Background
GME closed at $20.66 on January 6, 2026, requiring approximately a 21% gain to reach $25. Over the past 52 weeks, GameStop stock has traded between a high of $35.81 and a low of $19.93, indicating the $25 target is within recent trading range. The consensus analyst price target is $13.50, suggesting significant skepticism from Wall Street.
GameStop's Board granted a performance-based stock option award to CEO Ryan Cohen designed to incentivize extraordinary growth. For the award to fully vest, the company's market capitalization would have to grow to $100 billion and achieve $10 billion in cumulative performance EBITDA. Q3 2025 revenue was $821 million, down 4.6% year-over-year.
Considerations
GameStop is currently down nearly 40% versus its 52-week high. The stock remains highly volatile and subject to retail investor sentiment. Wells Fargo recently forecast that markets will see a meme stock rally in 2026, which could provide upside catalysts independent of fundamental business performance.
