September 28, 2023 GRAPEVINE, Texas, Sept. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) (“GameStop” or the “Company”) today disclosed that its Board of Directors has elected Ryan Cohen as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Cohen will not receive compensation for serving as the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman.
RC rolling up his sleeves.
My opinion: what was wrong with Matt Furlong was that he lost $50 million.
“GameStop fired its CEO, Matt Furlong, and elevated Ryan Cohen to executive chairman, the company announced on Wednesday. […] GameStop (GME) also reported a net loss of $50.5 million […] The loss comes just a few months after GameStop (GME) reported its first quarterly profit in two years.”
