World Wrestling stock is up 25% YTD, and momentum is still strong

World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:WWE) has returned more than 25% year-to-date. At the current price of $62, the stock has more than doubled in price since the early days of the pandemic. However, we believe diligent investors can make massive returns trading the momentum of WWE.

WWE is an integrated entertainment and media company. It produces and offers creative content on several channels. The content is monetized via licensing arrangements and direct-to-consumer subscriptions, among others. With a return of 25% YTD, WWE can be considered a defensive name in an overheating economy. It is also a momentum stock, offering investors a chance to buy on dips and sell the tops.
