The Indian stock market crashed on the last day of February, painting the screens red as panic-selling gripped investors. But while Dalal Street wept, social media laughed. The stock market crash sparked a memefest, as netizens turned the turmoil into comedy, drawing hilarious parallels—from Bollywood dramas to epic disasters.
The selloff followed a global trend after US President Donald Trump dropped fresh tariff bombs on Canada, Mexico, and China. But instead of just analysing charts, social media users found themselves starring in viral memes, capturing the chaos with witty takes and exaggerated reactions.
Amid economic jitters, the internet did what it does best—turn tragedy into trending content.
Here is a look at some of the trending stock market memes:
