Is that for real? A lot online says it is, but it's reminiscent the 2014 Mohammed Islam hoax. He was a Stuyvesant HS senior who supposedly "made $72 million trading stocks on his lunch break.”

Correction, Jake started with $25 million from his_family, so its not amazing at all. I wonder how many of "the family" were pumping and coordinating trades. Likely the SEC will wonder too.

"Jake Freeman and his family bought almost 5m shares in the struggling US homeware retailer at less than $5.50 a share in July for a total outlay of about $25m."
