Walmart, Costco Wholesale, and Target are the three Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are the equity shares of publicly traded companies whose primary business is designing, manufacturing and marketing toys, games and related entertainment products. As a consumer-discretionary sector, their performance tends to be highly seasonal—peaking around holidays, blockbuster movie tie-ins and popular licensing deals—and sensitive to broader retail and supply-chain trends. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
