Costco Wholesale, Walmart, Target, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Kroger, Burlington Stores, and Five Below are the seven Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are very low–priced, microcap equities whose shares trade in thin volume and often lack widespread financial coverage. Because they can be bought for just a few cents or dollars apiece, they attract retail investors seeking quick gains, but their extreme illiquidity and limited disclosure make them highly speculative—and easy to manipulate—rather than reliable long-term holdings. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
