đ American Eagle Soars 15% After Trump Praises Sydney Sweeneyâs Viral Jeans Ad
Wall Street squeezes into hype jeansâagain.
American Eagle's stock ripped higher today after former President Trump called out Sydney Sweeney's campaign for the retailer. The 26-year-old Euphoria star's curve-hugging denim spot apparently triggered MAGA nostalgiaâand a classic meme-stock pump.
Retail traders pile in post-Trump tweet
AE shares surged 15% in pre-market trading as Trump's Truth Social post went viral. The move echoes 2021's meme-stock maniaâback when fundamentals mattered less than influencer endorsements. Funny how that keeps happening.
Analysts scramble for rational explanations
"This is purely sentiment-driven," shrugged one hedge fund manager while adjusting his own AE jeans. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs quietly downgraded the stockâbecause nothing says 'serious investment' like presidential fashion commentary.
Another day, another asset riding the hype cycle. At least this time it's not crypto... oh wait, AE now accepts Bitcoin. Nevermind.
