Costco Wholesale, Walmart, Target, Dollar Tree, and Hour Loop are the five Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are small, low-priced equities—often micro-caps or penny stocks—that investors trade more as speculative “toys” than as fundamental, long-term holdings. They typically exhibit high volatility, limited liquidity and sparse financial track records. Because of their outsized risk and scant underlying value, toy stocks are often treated as gambling assets or collectibles rather than core portfolio positions. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
