New York Mets chairman Steve Cohen appeared to delete his Twitter account Friday night after spending most of the week in the middle of the GameStop investment saga via his Point72 Ventures.
Prior to this week, Cohen was mostly using his account to interact with Mets fans, asking their opinions on topics ranging from potential trades, free-agent signees and jersey options.
That began to shit this week as a horde of Reddit users, as well as Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy, began targeting Cohen's account after Point72 backed a hedge fund run by Melvin Capital, which has been central to a stock market short squeeze.
