Alibaba Group, DraftKings, and Walt Disney are the three Entertainment stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Entertainment stocks are equity shares of publicly traded companies whose core business is creating, distributing or monetizing leisure content—such as film studios, record labels, video game publishers, streaming platforms and live-event promoters. They offer investors exposure to consumer spending on movies, music, gaming, television and live performances, with revenues driven by box-office receipts, subscriber growth, digital downloads and licensing deals. Because success often hinges on shifting tastes, technological advances and competitive pressures, entertainment stocks can exhibit higher volatility than more diversified sectors. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Entertainment stocks within the last several days.
