E*Trade considering removing Keith Gill from platform: Report 

E-Trade, the trading platform owned by Morgan Stanley (MS), is considering removing GameStop trader Keith Gill from its platform due to concerns about potential market manipulation, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. Gill rose to fame as "Roaring Kitty," the meme stock trader that fueled the rally in GameStop (GME) shares in 2021. On Sunday night, a social media account linked to Gill posted a screenshot showing a trading account with a $175 million stake in the video game retailer. The post sent GameStop shares surging 21% on Monday. The report says those inside E-Trade are debating whether the account's actions count as manipulation and what sort of backlash the company could face if they remove Gill from the platform.
