As a first-generation Mexican-American, she said, she grew up thinking that investing wasn’t for people like her.</p><p>“I used to think you need like $10,000 to invest in the stock market,” she said. “You can do it with as little as $25.” She bought 11 shares of AMC in January for $100 because she expected the stock to rise as movie theaters reopened around the country. She watched as other people also bought in, and gathered on Discord, Reddit, and Twitter to celebrate and joke around.</p><p>The notion that a bunch of supposed nobodies could make a stock rise felt “kind of radical.”</p><p>“There’s so many of us, especially in communities of color, and especially in communities of lower-class status. Our parents don’t know” about the stock market, she said. “My parents are immigrants. My friend’s parents are immigrants from Nigeria as well. And so they don’t have this concept of generational wealth.”</p><p>Camacho’s $100 investment had grown to about $460 as of Thursday, but she didn’t intend to sell. She is enjoying the ride right now, even if she suspects it may not end with enormous financial gains.</p><p>“What draws me to it is that communal sense, that we’re all in this together,” she said. There’s a sense that “if we pool our money together, we might not be rich, but we’ll have enough to make a difference.”</p><p>Some of that same spirit is driving other investors too. Brittany Harrell, a 33-year-old who works at a nonprofit in Virginia, put $180 into AMC through her Stash app in January.

But she’s also been reflecting on how easy-to-use investing apps that don’t charge commissions for trading have opened up a world that she didn’t expect to be a part of.</p><p>“Just for me personally, as a black woman, I would love to create generational wealth for my family,” she said. “That wasn’t something that I had before. But now I’m in a position where I can create that. I bought a house during the pandemic. Now I’m playing around with stocks. Maybe one day, I’ll hit it big. I don’t know. But it is nice that I even thought about it. I’d never even thought about it five years ago.”</p><p>Harrell has gotten a kick out of watching people help each other through Internet forums like Reddit.</p><p>“I just love seeing people obtain things that our society deems unobtainable for regular everyday people,” she said. The image of a stock-trader tends to be “typically a white guy in New York. They rule the stock market, like that’s their territory. Now it’s just so many people. I love seeing women and people of color just kill it right now.”</p><p>For others, the trade has been a way to gamble some of their fun money. “For me this trade is leisure fun,” said Scott Gaught, a 36-year-old information technology specialist in Atlanta. “I’m not trying to make hand over fist money.”</p><p>For Gaught, trading stocks has been a substitute for more traditional gambling, which he liked to do at casinos until last year. “Since the pandemic, I’ve had to find other ways to exercise that pleasure,” he said.
