The "Stonks" meme, featuring the character known as "Meme Man," emerged around 2017-2019. "Stonks" is an intentional misspelling of "stocks," used humorously to comment on financial matters. The meme typically depicts Meme Man in a suit against a stock market background, often accompanied by an upward arrow, signifying a (usually misguided or ironic) increase in value. Its meaning is rooted in sarcasm, used to mock or ironically highlight poor financial decisions, speculative investments, or an overly optimistic outlook on ventures that are clearly flawed. It captures the absurdity often found in economic trends or personal investment choices. The "Empty Stonks" variant removes the text, allowing for broader application or user-added captions while retaining the core ironic financial context.
