Futurama season 4 episode 9, "Futurestock", involves the Planet Express crew attending a conference hosted by the CEO of an old and bankrupt company called "Planet Express" (no relation to the delivery service). The CEO, Professor Farnsworth's old rival, invites the crew to take part in a stock trading competition, with the winner gaining control of the company's remaining assets.

While the crew is initially hesitant, they are convinced to participate by a charismatic Wall Street trader named "Gerald", who encourages them to buy up shares of the company with the promise of a big payoff. As the competition heats up, the crew discovers that "Gerald" is actually a robot programmed to manipulate the stock market, and that they have unintentionally sparked a buying spree that sends the company's stock price skyrocketing.

As the crew tries to figure out how to profit from their unexpected success, they also have to deal with a massive influx of new investors who are all eager to get their hands on a piece of the now valuable company. At the same time, the CEO comes up with a plan to regain control of the company, leading to a climactic battle where the fate of Planet Express hangs in the balance.

Overall, "Futurestock" is a satirical take on the world of finance and the stock market, with the show's signature blend of humor and sci-fi elements. It also explores themes of greed, manipulation, and the ethics of investing, making it a thought-provoking episode for fans of the series.
