A call of duty to buy gaming stocks?

PC games such as Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto are hugely popular, so how about investing in the companies that make them? Trader, Serge Berger, has advice about what sort of stock to choose and what to avoid.

Shares in Activision Blizzard, which makes Call of Duty and Guitar Hero, have risen 45 percent in a year. Serge says it's been outperforming its peers and there's plenty of news-flow from the company. However, many investors got their fingers burned from the IPO of King Digital, which makes the Candy Crush saga. It's still some 20 percent down from its initial offer price. Serge urges caution and says your decision must be based on your time horizon and risk appetite.
