Costco Wholesale, Walmart, Target, Dollar Tree, and Winmark are the five Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are extremely low-priced, thinly traded equities—often penny stocks—issued by very small or distressed companies. Their minimal liquidity, scant analyst coverage and high volatility make them prone to rapid price swings and occasional manipulation. As a result, toy stocks are generally treated as speculative “playthings” by traders rather than long-term investments. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
