Costco Wholesale, Walmart, Target, BJ's Wholesale Club, and Kroger are the five Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are a slang term for small-cap or microcap equities that experience dramatic, often erratic price swings driven more by speculation and hype than by solid financial performance. They tend to trade with low liquidity and attract traders seeking high-risk, short-term gains. Because they can be easily manipulated, toy stocks carry significant volatility and the potential for sudden losses as well as outsized wins. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
