“Meme stock mania” may have cooled down. But, over-hyped Genius Brands (NASDAQ:GNUS) stock continues to trade at an inflated valuation. The children’s entertainment company faces big hurdles.

There’s a lot to be said about dividend stocks that’s positive. The companies they represent are shareholder friendly.
