International Gaming Technologies (NYSE: IGT) Stock is an Omnichannel Gaming Play
Electronic gaming products operator International Gaming Technologies PLC (NYSE: IGT) shares have been relatively muted during the sports betting app frenzy. Instead IGT has moved more in alignment with the benchmark S&P 500 index (NYSEARCA: SPY). Unlike many of the recent runups, IGT has much more structure both in terms of fundamentals and share price making it a more stabile value play for risk-tolerant longer-term investors.

CVS Remains a Solid Stock In the Flight to Safety
In a market that seems to be looking for any green shoot it can find, CVS (NYSE:CVS) has been a laggard. CVS stock plummeted nearly 30% from mid-February until mid-March.
