Over on CAPS, fully 740 of the 805 members who have rated Take-Two -- some 92% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bulls include TMFSarahGen and MorphixEnigma, both of whom are ranked in the top 20% of our community.
One month ago, TMFSarahGen took two seconds to update us on the Take-Two story: "[Electronic Arts] announces it's not buying [Take-Two], so we get a break in the [Take-Two] stock price. Still an excellent sector leader in gaming, now with a better buy point. Thumbs up."
A pitch from MorphixEnigma one day later agrees, expanding on the special Take-Two situation:
After speculators abandoned Take Two in droves, the stock plunged 25% on Monday. Despite this, Take Two has some of the best studios in the industry making extremely successful titles. They're going to do well for themselves, and you can pick them up on the cheap.
