The Reddit community at the centre of a stock trading war against Wall Street attracted roughly two million followers in a single day this week, as the messageboard became ground zero in an effort to disrupt hedge funds.

Members of the thriving subreddit, r/WallStreetBets, have been the driving force behind investments into the retailer GameStop this week and have used the page to mobilize, plan and communicate, while urging others to pour their money into the stock.
