For trading enthusiasts, StockTwits is a Twitter where users can tweet specifically about market trends and news. In order to find information on a specific asset, users employ “Cashtags” rather than hashtags (ex: $NFLX).
Oftentimes the most trending stocks are designated as such because they are implicated in breaking news or their share price has experienced a significant jump or fall.
