AMTD Digital
- ... that AMTD Digital had a market value greater than the Coca-Cola Company, Costco or McDonald's after its stock price rose 21,000% in a matter of days? Source: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/amtd-meme-stock-21000-percent-surge/

- comment I think the source meant to say "or" unless the company was worth more than all of the companies mentioned put together.Victuallers (talk) 16:39, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
- its long and new enough and the hook is interesting and cited. It does have a ridiculous number of references. Strictly speaking a fact in the lede doesn't need a ref and some of the sentences have three or four references. Thankfully only one is offered above. (Its CBSnews so what are the others for?) There is no image which is a pity as a graph would tell the story. However its neutral and the nominator appears to have only four previous DYKs. This is an intriguing story especially as no one seems to know why it has happened to a small company with no claim to fame. (Do consider if you could remove some of the refs.) Thank you.

- @Victuallers: Much appreciated. I have managed to add a graph as illustration. I guess I can do some cleaning up of the refs when I'm a bit more free. -Imcdc (talk) 13:23, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
