FIT - These Sports Tech Stocks Could Be A Slam Dunk

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / January 7, 2019 / Every seasoned athlete knows that every sport, be it basketball or golf, is ultimately a test of cognition. When we watch NBA players like Lebron James hit a game-winning 3-pointer or professional golfers like Tiger Woods putt their way to a PGA trophy, rarely do we consider their mental toughness and ability to perform under stress. Cognitive assessment technology for professional athletic development represents a multi-billion dollar industry that is piping hot with investor opportunities. As athletes recognize a never-before-seen realm of competitive edge over their opponents, one company, in particular, has what it takes to get ahead of the ball and connect. As more athletes see the power of using technology to help them reach the top of their game, XSport Global, Inc. (XSPT), Fitbit Inc (NYSE: FIT), MINDBODY Inc (NASDAQ: MB), and Activision Blizzard Inc (NASDAQ: ATVI) are 4 sports tech stocks that could round home plate on Monday.

XSport Global, Inc. (XSPT) is a company that is leading the cognitive assessment technology industry as they seek to further the success of high-performance athletes around the world through "leading sciences, innovative technologies, and pioneering digital media."

In late-November 2018, XSport Global, Inc. (XSPT) announced their rapid development of FitLinkDNA, a service designed to help athletes train, compete, and perform at their full capacity. Per the announcement, the service will include a set of comprehensive digital reports that will become the athletes' digital blueprint – allowing them to develop a tailored, personalized, wellness regimen.

Robert Finigan, CEO of XSport Global, Inc. (XSPT), said, "Decoding the human genome is one of the most significant undertakings that has ever been mounted in the history of science. DNA sequencing has revolutionized our understanding of the human genome and provided insights that were beyond comprehension just ten years ago. By taking it a step further and using that knowledge to provide real solutions to genetic level problems, the Company is working to monetize advanced technology and its applications in one of the most high-growth, highest-grossing global industries ever."
