The Brief: A "stock market bf" is a boyfriend who invests in and is interested in the stock market.
DEEP DIVE
The “stock market bf” trope is often paired with an “astrology gf” or an “OnlyFans gf.” Stereotypically, a stock market boyfriend is a boyfriend who is interested in the stock market as a hobby or career. He may also be a finance bro.
The term rose to popularity alongside discourse around StonkGate: when individual investors from the subreddit r/WallStreetBets caused the price of GameStop stock to surge.
