Meme stocks have surged in the last few weeks as retail investors shun pricier stocks for cheaper speculative names, but some experts worry that this could choke the current rally in broader markets.

Recent examples of rallies include a 33 per cent jump in shares of cinema operator AMC Entertainment on Monday and a 40 per cent rise in shares of troubled used-car retailer Carvana last Wednesday.
