This must be the investors’ ultimate game stock.  There is no other company that encompasses so many great games: Guitar Hero, Starcraft, Diablo, World of Warcraft.  They have a line of games that will bring in recurring income for a long time.  Starcraft is a very old game, but it still gets lots of press coverage.  In Korea, there is even a channel specifically for Starcraft.  They have game shows and prizes with audiences passing over 10,000 people just to show the video game on projectors and have the best players come out.

Starcraft II will be coming out sometime this year.  It has been said to be released sometime in the first half.  If you visit Gamestop, you will notice a link for the pre-order of the game.  You can bet this game will break major records in sales.  Also, if you look at the stock chart, you will notice this company has a very strong uptrend since January.  The big dips and drops of the stock market has not affected this company at all!

I’ve also recently got access to MarketClub.  They have a feature for their members that gives a trending system.  0 being negative and +100 being very positive for the future.  Activision/Blizzard is ranked to be +75.  This means it is showing some near term weakness. However, this market remains in the confines of a longer term uptrend Uptrend with tight money management stops.  This is very good looking for the future.  If the market looks right tomorrow, maybe I will pick up some shares.
