Are These The Best Leisure Stocks To Buy This Month?

For investors wondering what stocks to invest in now, leisure stocks appear to be gaining in popularity in the stock market today. Like it or not, the leisure industry remains a crucial one in the world today. Across the board, investors and consumers alike seem to be turning towards leisure companies now.

On one hand, most virtual means of entertainment today are convenient and highly accessible to consumers. This was especially the case throughout the pandemic as countless consumers were homebound. As a result, some of the top leisure stocks today are streaming companies such as Fubo (NYSE: FUBO) and Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU). On the other hand, conventional in-person entertainment companies seem to be kicking into high gear as well. Namely, travel stocks would be in the spotlight now as investors look for the top reopening plays. Understandably, this group of stocks would stand to benefit from loosening travel restrictions. From airline stocks like Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) to cruise line stocks such as Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE: NCLH), investors are spoilt for choices.

By and large, the tailwinds for the leisure industry could persist for the foreseeable future. Just last month, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed that more than half of Americans have received at least one vaccine dose. If anything, with leisure stocks on the rebound, investors could be tuning their radars towards the industry now. Should you be eager to do so yourself, here are five worth knowing in the stock market now.

Following that, we have Penn National Gaming Inc (PENN). To begin with, the company is an operator of casinos and racetracks. As it stands, the company owns and runs 41 gaming and racing facilities across 19 U.S. states. This alone would make it a probable player in the reopening trade now.

However, the company has and continues to bolster its online sports betting portfolio as well. Through its Barstool Sportsbook app, PENN serves over 20 million casino customers. Because of this, some would argue that the company could emerge stronger than ever in a post-pandemic market. PENN stock is currently up by over 130% in the past year.

If anything, the company does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Just last week, PENN received full approval from the Maryland officials to acquire the operations of Hollywood Casino Perryville. Through the $31.1 million transactions PENN is gaining access to the newly legalized Maryland sports betting scene. Subsequently, CEO Jay Snowden also revealed plans to expand the company’s mobile sports betting app in the region. Given all of this, will you be keeping an eye on PENN stock now?

Ideally, this would eventually lead towards RCL resuming full sailings soon. Essentially, the company will be running simulated cruises with volunteer passengers starting June 20.

This would mark the first cruise to sail from a U.S. port since March 2020. Not to mention, RCL also announced new summer voyages in Alaska and Iceland, starting in July 2021. By and large, the company seems to be firing on all cylinders now. Would this make RCL stock a buy for you?
