Gaming stocks should be on every investor's watchlist as mobile gaming continues to grow globally and given the recent release of the new gaming consoles. Today's video focuses on Activision (ATVI), Electronic Arts (EA -0.66%), and Take-Two Interactive Software (TTWO -1.34%) and compares some fundamentals to try to determine which is the better buy. Here are some highlights from the video. 

  1. Activision and Take-Two Interactive Software have seen a correction of over 20% from 52-week high closing prices, while EA Games has only seen roughly a 3% correction. The reaction to Activision's stock price could be due to the recent lawsuits affecting its Blizzard leadership. The response to Take-Two Interactive Software's stock price could be due to the delay of the latest entry in its hit franchise Grand Theft Auto. 
  2. All three companies own strong franchises with numerous releases due in the upcoming months. Activision has a new Call of Duty game coming out in November. EA Games has multiple sports titles plus a new release in its Battlefield franchise. Take-Two Interactive has numerous titles coming soon and recently acquired Nordeus, a small mobile gaming studio. 
  3. When you look at each company's fundamentals, you'll see that each leads in specific metrics. For the trailing-12-months (TTM) revenue, you will notice that since the pandemic really got going in March 2020, Activision has seen continued growth in TTM revenue. EA Games, on average, tends to have the highest-grossing margins. Take-Two Interactive seems to have the best cash-to-debt ratio.
