GameStop slides, silver spree stalls as retail traders run out of road

LONDON (Reuters) - GameStop shares sank on Tuesday and a silver buying spree led by small investors subsided as a Reddit-driven trading frenzy that has shocked global financial markets over the past week started to show signs of fizzling out.

The videogame chain's U.S.-listed shares, which have see-sawed in a dramatic week that has seen billions of dollars gained and lost by financial firms, were down 23% in early pre-market trading after closing down 31% on Monday.
