Jan Paul Fóri from the investor magazine “Der Aktionär” takes a close look at the shares of the US game manufacturer Activision Blizzard (ISIN: US00507V1098, WKN: A0Q4K4, ticker symbol: AIY, NASDAQ symbol: ATVI) in a current stock analysis.
Every year, Activision Blizzard and Electronic Arts (ISIN: US2855121099, WKN: 878372, ticker symbol: ERT, NASDAQ symbol: EA) compete for players with new offshoots of their shooter series “Call of Duty” and “Battlefield” . Release issues such as bugs and other technical difficulties could have a massive impact on the gameplay and quickly have a negative impact on sales figures. THE SHAREHOLDER shows which shooter will be popular with gamers in 2021.
As the industry portal “giga.de” reports, citing data from the NPD Group, “Call of Duty” in the USA is clearly ahead of “Battlefield” in terms of sales in the current year. According to this, the new Call-of-Duty offshoot “Vanguard” will be ranked 2nd among the best-selling games in the US market by the end of November. “Battlefield 2042” lies behind in 6th place, although the title was published in November. The top seller is the Call-of-Duty part “Black Ops Cold War”, which was released in 2020.
Activision Blizzard should achieve further sales records with “Call of Duty: Vanguard”. The share has also recovered significantly from its low and recently exceeded the 50-day line at $ 66.39. Nevertheless, the group continues to struggle with internal problems. In the long term, however, the game publisher and rival Electronic Arts remain promising.
Therefore, investors can go “long gaming” after months of weakness in the gaming sector – although they should spread the short-term risks, according to Jan Paul Fóri from “Der Aktionär”. (Analysis from 12/30/2021)
