Forums - General - So who among us buys stock in video game companies?

A lot of us spend time poring over numbers here.  So who among us tries to gain financially from it?  We got the NTDOY thread going strong for Nintendo stock, but I'm curious to know who else besides the people who post in that thread are also playing the market.  As this industry is the only one I follow closely, this is the only industry I invest in.  I'd like to know who else here has holdings in video game companies like EA, Take Two, Midway, Konami, Capcom, etc. 

 

 



Around the Network

I have not recently, but I'm considering shorting GME (Gamestop). Their P/E is currently 41 and i don't think they will hold their current price. Other companies are getting into the used game business which will put pressure on margins. It may not be in the next couple of quarters but GME certainly has more downside than up in my opinion.



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

GME has had a run up and I was invested in it awhile ago. After the holidays it may be a good short.
