Walmart, Costco Wholesale, Kroger, Target, GameStop, Dollar Tree, and Best Buy are the seven Toy stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Toy stocks are shares of very small‐capitalization companies that trade at low per‐share prices and often have limited liquidity. Because they usually lack robust financial reporting and face wide bid–ask spreads, these securities can be prone to price manipulation and extreme volatility. Investors who buy toy stocks typically do so for speculative “play money” trades, accepting a high risk of rapid gains or losses. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Toy stocks within the last several days.
