Activision’s Strong Earnings Are Putting These Video Game Stocks On Investors’ Radar

Video game stocks may be under pressure along with the stock market pullback this week. But one thing’s for sure. That is their fundamentals remain intact, at least in the near term as the coronavirus pandemic acts as a short-term tailwind. For instance, Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ: ATVI) has topped analysts’ expectations for the first quarter, thanks to its popular “Call of Duty” and “Candy Crush” franchises.

During its first quarter, revenue came in at $2.07 billion, beating estimates of $1.78 billion. Activision Blizzard reported earnings of $0.84 per share, topping analysts’ estimates of $0.70 per share. Following the earnings announcement yesterday, the company’s stock is up by about 5{a09df0a7172ddbd410cbc83e52d18ea8893b7d066ec9e694b3e49f37d306c3bb} at market open.
