Walmart, Costco Wholesale, and Target are the three Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are speculative micro-cap or penny shares with low prices and limited trading volume that many retail investors treat more like playthings than serious investments. Because their floats are small, even modest buy or sell orders can send their prices swinging wildly, offering the allure of quick gains but also exposing traders to unusually high risk. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
