Toy Stocks To Keep An Eye On – July 19th

Costco Wholesale, Walmart, and Take-Two Interactive Software are the three Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Toy stocks are shares of very small, low-priced companies—often micro- or nano-cap issues—that trade in thin volume and attract speculative interest. Because they’re lightly regulated and easily manipulated, toy stocks tend to exhibit extreme price swings and carry elevated risk. Investors in these issues seek outsized returns but must be prepared for rapid losses and illiquid markets. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
