Amazon.com, MercadoLibre, Alibaba Group, McDonald's, and Costco Wholesale are the five Retail stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. "Retail stocks" can mean two related things: they are either shares of companies in the retail sector (businesses that sell goods directly to consumers, such as stores and e‑commerce firms), or, in investor parlance, securities that are predominantly bought and traded by individual (retail) investors rather than institutional investors. The latter usage often implies higher retail-driven trading activity, speculative interest, or momentum tied to consumer sentiment and social-media attention. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Retail stocks within the last several days.
