Why It's Important: The most-searched tickers for the month of August saw plenty of movement in the top 20, with three newcomers to the top 10 and several stocks making noticeable moves up and down.

Palantir was one of the biggest movers in the month. After being ranked in the top 4 in both May and June, the stock fell out of the top 20 in July, only to find its way to second in August. The stock saw increased attention from retail traders and also from short seller Citron Research, which questioned the company's premium valuation.

Another notable move for the month of August was Nvidia slipping in the rankings once again. Once a staple in the top three positions, Nvidia fell to fifth place in July and now slips to ninth place for the month of August. The fall happens in the same month the company beat analyst estimates for both earnings per share and revenue and announced strong guidance.

Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) treasury company BitMine jumped up two spots to seventh place for the month of July as investors continue to show interest in cryptocurrency treasury public companies. Ethzilla, another Ethereum treasury company ranks eighth in August, climbing up four spots. The company previously traded under the ticker ATNF.

Opendoor, a popular retail investor stock, fell to 10th place for the month of August, but continues to rank higher than many other well-known names.

New to the top 10 for the month of August were BioXcel Therapeutics, Ethzilla and Palantir. BioXcel was highly volatile in August with several days seeing trading halts for the stock. The company announced topline results for its at-home Phase 3 safety trial for BXCL501, to treat agitation from bipolar disorders or schizophrenia during the month.

Several stocks that ranked between 11 and 20 in July held the same positions in August. New to the list was Figma at 11th place, which went public on July 31. Also returning to the top 20 was recent IPO Circle, which went public in June and ranked fifth in June before dropping out in July.

AEye Inc (NASDAQ:LIDR), Incannex Healthcare (NASDAQ:IXHL) and Sarepta Therapeutics (NASDAQ:SRPT) went from ranking in the top 10 in July to not being in the top 20 in August.
