So? The article is about the past 2 years, not the past 2 days.
You could pick any short time period in the past few years that would make meme investors look good compared to the total market. But if you zoom out to a two year period, it's clear the meme investors underperformed.

TSLA is still up from 2 years ago by ~380% (May 8th 2020 - May 9th 2022). I know that exceptions tend to prove the rule, but here is at least one just off the top of my head.
Oh, totally agreed. Sorry, i guess i misunderstood what being a meme stock meant. I assumed it was being really volatile on a semi-regular basis and being very hyped on WSB, all while being prominently hated and loved by all sides at the sime and featured heavily in the media.
If we are talking pure meme stocks without much substance (but much of cultism), GME definitely takes the cake, TSLA is indeed not even close.
meme stocks are just a segment of a market, more riskier one of course, but still a part of the market
