Vinco Ventures already released its earnings report for the second quarter of 2021 after markets closed on Monday. The company saw several decreases during its earnings report that investors likely wouldn’t be happy about.

For example, Vinco Ventures notes that revenue was down 48% from $5.17 million to $2.69 million. It notes that this was mostly due to a decrease in sales of Personal Protective Equipment in its Edison Nation Medical division. Gross profit also dropped 17% year-over-year.

So why exactly are traders picking up more shares of BBIG stock despite these results?

Will Meade is weighing in on the situation via a Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) post. Meade is a former hedge fund manager with more than 213,000 followers on the social media platform. He regularly posts insight into financial matters on his account. Check out his Tweet below.

With the increasing interest in Vinco Ventures comes more trading. As of this writing, about 10 million shares of the stock have changed hands. That’s quickly approaching the company’s daily average trading volume of 15.1 million shares.

Vinco Ventures’ main business is buying and growing companies to add to its portfolio of brands. It calls this the B.I.G strategy, or Buy. Innovate. Grow. The company is based out of Bethlehem, Penn. and was founded in 2017.

BBIG stock was up 21.1% as of Tuesday afternoon.
