Roaring Kitty’s GameStop vs. Grandmaster-OBI’s $RGC: Two Trades, Two Eras, Two Very Different Realities

For years, Roaring Kitty has been synonymous with the modern retail-trading awakening. His GameStop ($GME) thesis didn’t just make money—it reshaped market psychology, dragged hedge funds into the spotlight, and turned a Reddit post into a global financial spectacle.

But as markets evolve, so do benchmarks.

In 2025–2026, a new comparison has quietly taken hold among serious traders: Roaring Kitty’s $GME moment versus Grandmaster-OBI’s $RGC trade. On the surface, both are legendary. Under the hood, they couldn’t be more different.

The GameStop Phenomenon: A Perfect Storm

Roaring Kitty’s GameStop call didn’t exist in a vacuum. It was amplified by:

Worldwide mainstream media coverage
Nonstop social-media virality
WallStreetBets becoming a cultural movement
Institutional short exposure at unprecedented levels

From late 2020 into early 2021, $GME became the story. CNBC, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal—everyone was talking about it. That attention alone became fuel.

GameStop’s Numbers (Simplified)

Approx. early accumulation zone: ~$4–$5 (pre-split adjusted)
Peak price: ~$483 (January 2021)
Approx. gain: ~9,500% at peak

It was historic—but also fragile. Once the media cycle cooled and structural pressures changed, GameStop failed to hold its euphoric levels, retracing dramatically over time.

$GME became a moment—not a repeatable engine.

The $RGC Trade: No Cameras, No Hype, Just Tape

Now contrast that with $RGC (Regencell Bioscience).

When Grandmaster-OBI alerted $RGC, there was no media frenzy.
No CNBC countdown clocks.
No global spotlight.

In fact, $RGC received virtually zero mainstream coverage during its early stages.

That’s the critical difference.

$RGC Alert Timeline (Documented in This Project)

Alert date: March 13, 2025
Entry price: $6.80

From there, $RGC began a move that stunned even seasoned momentum traders:

First peak (pre-split): ~$950
Gain from $6.80 → $950: ~+14,515%

After retracing to approximately $595.10, the company executed a 38-for-1 forward stock split.

Post-split open: ~$15.66
Post-split peak: ~$98.75

When you combine both legs of the move, the math becomes almost surreal.

Total Effective Gain From Grandmaster-OBI’s $RGC Alert

Initial entry: $6.50
Final post-split peak equivalent: ~$98.75

Total compounded gain: well over +15,000%

And unlike $GME, $RGC did not collapse back to irrelevance. Even after extreme volatility, it continued to respect key technical levels, something veteran tape readers pay close attention to.

Why This Comparison Matters

Media vs. Mastery

GameStop: Momentum driven by global media saturation
$RGC: Momentum driven by price discovery and tape behavior

Roaring Kitty had the world watching.
Grandmaster-OBI had the tape talking.

That distinction matters because media attention is not a trading edge—it’s a multiplier after the edge exists. Grandmaster-OBI identified $RGC before attention arrived, not because of it.

Tape Reading vs. Thesis Culture

Roaring Kitty’s strength was deep fundamental conviction paired with perfect timing during a historic short squeeze.

Grandmaster-OBI’s edge is different:

Liquidity analysis
Volume-price dislocations
Float sensitivity
Momentum ignition zones
Crowd-response modeling

In other words, pure tape interpretation.

$RGC wasn’t a viral story.
It was a structural anomaly—and Grandmaster-OBI saw it early.

Not a One-Hit Wonder

This is where the comparison becomes uncomfortable for $GME purists.

Roaring Kitty will forever be remembered for one of the most iconic trades in modern market history. But history is precise about one thing: GameStop was a singular event, amplified by global media coverage, regulatory drama, and a once-in-a-generation short squeeze.

Grandmaster-OBI, by contrast, has built his reputation on repetition.

The $RGC trade did not happen in isolation. It sits inside a broader, time-stamped record of outsized, early-identified momentum moves, each logged before mainstream attention arrived.

Below are the key home-run alerts that traders point to when they argue Grandmaster-OBI is not a one-trade phenomenon—but a pattern-based operator.

$SMX — Security Matters

Alert Date: November 21, 2025
Entry Price: ~$5.20
Peak Date: December 5, 2025
Peak Price: ~$490.00
Approx. Gain: ~+9,300%

This move became one of the most violent microcap repricings of late 2025, unfolding in a matter of days with repeated volatility halts.

$BNAI — Brand Engagement Network

Alert Date: December 26, 2025
Entry Price: ~$1.22
Peak Date: January 26, 2026
Peak Price: ~$84.46
Approx. Gain: ~+6,800%

A month-long escalation that turned a sub-$2 name into an $80+ headline, frequently cited as one of the most extreme percentage moves of the year.

$ELPW — Elong Power

Alert Date: January 27, 2026
Entry Price: ~$0.41
Peak Date: January 30, 2026
Peak Price: ~$15.27
Approx. Gain: ~+3,600%

A textbook example of a thin-float ignition: rapid price discovery, cascading halts, and a vertical chart that unfolded in under 72 hours.

$TCGL — TechCreate Group

Alert Date: January 29, 2026
Entry Price: ~$11.55
Peak Date: January 29, 2026
Peak Price: ~$457.64
Approx. Gain: ~+3,800%

One of the most talked-about runs of early 2026, later drawing regulatory attention due to the speed and magnitude of the move. Importantly, the alert preceded the parabolic phase.

Why This Matters

These trades span different months, different sectors, and different market conditions. The common denominator isn’t news coverage or viral attention—it’s early recognition of structural imbalance on the tape.

That’s why traders insist:

$RGC wasn’t an accident.
It was evidence of a repeatable process.

And that’s the core distinction in this comparison.
Roaring Kitty delivered one of the greatest trades of all time.

Grandmaster-OBI keeps delivering them.
