Walmart, Costco Wholesale, Target, TKO Group, Take-Two Interactive Software, GameStop, and Kroger are the seven Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. “Toy stocks” is an informal, somewhat pejorative term for low-priced, small- or micro-cap equities that retail investors treat more like playground toys than core investments. Because they often have thin liquidity, scant fundamental support and extreme volatility, these stocks are prone to rapid price swings and speculative trading. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
