A billionaire CEO and investor blamed the GameStop stock surge on the government's $1,200 COVID-19 relief checkss sent to cushion Americans from the economic fallout

"In this case thanks to primarily government policy there's wherewithal among investors, if you want to call them that, with government money being sprayed all over the place, with checks to people, that they have the wherewithal to put it together into a real capital base," Gundlach, CEO and chief investment officer of Los Angeles-based DoubleLine Capital told Fox Business host Charles Payne.

Gundlach went on to criticize the hedge funds as well but warned against viewing the contest as the triumph of underdogs against financial giants.
