Costco Wholesale, Alibaba Group, and American Express are the three Travel stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Travel stocks are equity shares of companies operating in the travel and tourism sector—including airlines, hotels, cruise lines, car rental agencies and online booking platforms. They give investors exposure to consumer demand for leisure and business travel, which is shaped by factors such as economic conditions, geopolitical events, seasonality and public health developments. Because travel is largely discretionary, these stocks tend to be more sensitive to external shocks and can exhibit greater volatility than those in defensive industries. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Travel stocks within the last several days.
