Costco Wholesale, Kroger, Walmart, Target, Take-Two Interactive Software, Dollar Tree, and SRM Entertainment are the seven Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks is a colloquial term for low-priced, highly speculative equities—often penny or microcap issues—that some traders treat more like playthings than long-term investments. They typically have thin liquidity, wide bid-ask spreads and can swing wildly on minimal news or trading volume. While they may offer the lure of rapid gains, they also carry a disproportionately high risk of sudden price crashes and market manipulation. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
