[Hot Gadget] Stylish Game Console - Xbox 360 Stocks
Recently I have checked some sites talking abou the top 10 holiday gadgets. Although you probably won't be expecting identical list from any two sites, some gadgets do pop up in all diffeernt list. One of those gadget is iPod, the most talked about gadget recently which I have covered two weeks ago. The other one which just released recently is Microsoft's(MSFT) Home Entertainment gadget - XBOX 360.
So is Microsoft the only company you can invest if you want to buy XBOX 360 related stocks? For sure Microsoft is expected to be the biggest winner of this hot gadget in the long run. Yes in the long run because the equipment itself cost so much that actually Microsoft is losing money for every XBOX console sold. The real meat only comes when the game producers will give Microsoft money for every game produced which will come a little bit later. Therefore the real winners in XBOX so far is not Microsoft but all the equipment suppliers for this game console.
The first real winner from XBOX is its graphic adaptor maker, nVDIA Corp(NVDA), a Santa Clara, CA based graphic processor maker. Looking at the 52 week performance of NVDA and you will see that the stock has outperformed MSFT with a large margin. And if you buy the stock at its bottom in September, 2004 around $10 per share you will be now enjoying a close to 300% return with the stock trading at $36 per share.
Another big winner is the game console's graphic processor maker, ATI Technologies(ATYT), a Canada based company. The stock have been bullish lately as the price has jumped from the 52 week low of $12 per share in September this year to $16 per share today, a 30% plus return.
XBOX is basically using Power PC processor which is produced by IBM(IBM). Although IBM is a blue chip and the stock seems expensive at $86 per share, however the stock was also doing well recently from $75 per share in July to $86 per share today, a 10% plus return which is amazing for a blue chip stock.

NVDA doesn't make the graphics adaptor from the new XBOX, you idiot - ATYT does! The new XBOX has absolutely nothing to do with NVDA's performance over the last year (since NVDA has nothing to do with the new XBOX). NVDA supplied the graphics chips for the PRIOR generation of XBOX's, and will be supplying the grahics chips for PS3.
