Outdoor Stocks To Follow Today – March 3rd

Walmart, Kroger, and CRH are the three Outdoor stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Outdoor stocks are wooden restraint devices historically used in public spaces to confine an individual’s wrists (and sometimes ankles) as a form of punishment and public humiliation. By securing the offender in a fixed, exposed position, these stocks served as a visible deterrent and a means for the community to enforce social order. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Outdoor stocks within the last several days.
