Tesla has emerged as the most Google searched company in Europe, according to Bonusetu.com.

The Finnish casino review site analysed Google Trend results for multiple European countries to determine the most popular stock for each country.

The data shows that Tesla is the most searched stock in 28 European countries, with 71% of the top-searched search traffic.

The second most searched share is AMC Entertainment Holdings, which was subject to massive hype last year among Robinhood traders.

AMC is the most searched for stock in Ireland, the UK, Germany, Croatia, and Liechtenstein, according to Bonusetu.com, which commented that investors may hope that AMC can regain its ‘meme stock’ status and see more huge and unfounded spikes.

The UK contributed 74% of the top AMC stock searches, with Germany accounting for 17%. 

Third place in the Google search league is Nio Inc, the Chinese multinational automobile manufacturer headquartered in Shanghai.

Nio, which recently hit a production milestone of 300,000 EVs, is the most searched for stock in Romania, Slovakia, Serbia, and Andorra.

Virgin Galactic, EPAM Systems, Icelandair, and GameStop the top searched for stock in only one country.

GameStop was the leading stock searched for in Austria. Like AMC, GameStop had meme-stock status a year ago when a Reddit page called ‘wallstreetbets’ encouraged social investing and inflated GameStop's share price.

EPAM Systems is the most Googled stock in Belarus. EPAM is headquartered in Belarus and was the first Belarusian company to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Virgin Galactic Holdings is the most searched for stock in Montenegro. LauncherOne’s failed mission to make the UK the first country to launch satellites into orbit from Europe caused the share price to crash this week.

A spokesperson from Bonusetu.com commented: “We’re living in a time where information and education about the stock market is more accessible than ever. People don’t have to look much further than their phones to invest in shares.

"It’s interesting to see how even though Tesla has its lowest share price since December 2020, it can still dominate the search results of 28 European countries. As more people look to generate wealth online, the popularity of retail investing will only increase.”
