Hasbro's Surprising Bet

The following video is from Monday's MarketFoolery podcast, featuring host Chris Hill and analysts Jason Moser and Michael Olsen, CFA. In this segment, the focus is on game maker Hasbro, which reported better-than-expected Q3 earnings thanks in part to its board-game division. Perhaps even more surprising than Hasbro's solid quarter is the company's decision to bring back Furby. (Yes, that Furby.) Listen in on the guys' frank analysis of whether this will pay off for Hasbro and its shareholders.
