Let’s take a closer look at the company.
GameStop CEO Dives In
Most investors are familiar with GameStop thanks to the ‘meme stock’ mania a few years back, with the company reflecting the poster child of the bunch overall. Though shares are down nearly 20% year-to-date, CEO Ryan Cohen recently stepped in and purchased 500k shares at a total transaction value of roughly $10.7 million, perhaps a nice indication of his views on the long-term outlook.
Though sales growth has been sluggish, the company’s margins picture continues to improve nicely over recent periods, as shown below.

It’s worth mentioning that the stock isn’t going to squeeze again like it did a few years ago, with the current short interest percentage well below the extremes we saw. Nonethless, the bullish EPS outlook for the stock paints a positive near-term picture, with its next set of quarterly results expected near the beginning of June.

The top 5% of all stocks receive the highly coveted Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). These stocks should outperform the market more than any other rank.
