Why MicroVision Stock Jumped Today

Shares of MicroVision (NASDAQ: MVIS) popped this morning on seemingly no company-related news. The share price jump is likely the result of MicroVision -- which makes lidar sensors, laser beam technology, and micro-displays -- being mentioned on Reddit's WallStreetBets forum yesterday. A mere mention of a particular stock on the WallStreetBets message board can potentially send a share price skyrocketing.
