As January winds down, Wall Street is set to notch its first monthly win of 2025, carrying strong momentum into February. However, not all stocks are poised to benefit from the bullish sentiment.

Schaeffer’s Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White has identified the 25 worst-performing S&P 500 Index (SPX) stocks in February over the past decade -- one of which is Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc (NASDAQ:TTWO). According to White’s research, TTWO has averaged a 6.7% loss in February over the past 10 years, managing a monthly gain only twice during that period. From its current perch, a drop of this magnitude would put the equity below $180.

Despite this historical weakness, Take-Two Interactive stock has had a solid start to 2025, up 4% year-to-date. The video game giant was last seen 0.8% higher at $191.56, after earlier touching $192.50 -- its highest level since November 2021.

However, an unwinding of optimism in the options market could present headwinds. TTWO’s 50-day call/put volume ratio of 5.11 at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) ranks in the 88th percentile of the past year. If traders begin to unwind this bullish sentiment, Take-Two Interactive stock could face additional downside pressure.
