As for the guy on the other side of the GameStop debacle? Meet Ryan Cohen, the co-founder and former CEO of online pet supply store Chewy. In late 2020 he set his sights on reviving GameStop, joined the board in January 2021, and, because of the massive trading surge that month, became a billionaire thanks to his new shares in the company. These days he's working on pivoting GameStop's strategy to e-commerce, and might just be named the company's next CEO.
