Are These The Best Entertainment Stocks To Invest In Today?

Even as the broader stock market appears to be taking a breather, entertainment firms continue to make moves. As such, it stands to reason that investors could be keeping an eye on the top entertainment stocks now. After all, the industry has and continues to keep the masses, well, entertained. From streaming stocks to live entertainment stocks and everything in between, this is apparent. With the holiday season fast approaching, some would argue that demand for entertainment services could persist. While that remains to be seen, some of the biggest names in the industry remain hard at work.

For instance, we could look at Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) and Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU). To begin with, Netflix is acquiring Scanline, the visual effects company behind massive series such as Game of Thrones and Zack Snyder’s Justice League. The company is also known for its work on Netflix’s award-winning Stranger Things series. Ideally, this move will serve to bolster the company’s already impressive content production operations. Speaking of homegrown content production, news recently broke of Roku’s latest plans regarding its Roku Originals portfolio. Namely, the company is looking to develop over 50 original series through 2024.

Travel firms like United Airlines (NASDAQ: UAL) and Carnival Cruises (NYSE: CCL) are also gaining momentum. Overall, there are plenty of avenues for consumers to spend their saved-up holiday funds now. Could that make one of these entertainment stocks top picks in the stock market this week?
