At the end of Friday’s trade, Shares of GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME), lost -0.75% to $44.89.

According to a recent study by GameStop, a family of specialty retail brands that make the most popular technologies affordable and simple, about two in five gamers are leaving upwards of $200 unclaimed by holding on to unused video games, meaning gamers are literally leaving money on the table. The specialty retailer, which in 2014 gave gaming fans more than $1 billion in trade credit, surveyed more than 400 video game enthusiasts to learn about their video game usage and trade-in practices.

GameStop’s survey determined that virtually every gamer – 92 percent of those surveyed – owns at least one video game disc he or she no longer plays. One-third of those surveyed (33 percent) said they have between five and nine unused games lying around the house, while 38 percent said they have as many as 10 to 20 unused games. Meanwhile, most respondents (92 percent) have postponed new video game purchases in the past for financial reasons. But, there is no reason to wait. With hundreds of pre-owned items valued at more than $20 when traded at GameStop, gamers have potential for substantial cash and credit just waiting to be claimed so they can afford to buy new video games right away.

“Video games are more than just a hobby – they are a passion – and GameStop has the perfect solution for value conscious gamers eager to get their hands on the new games they want, when they want them,” said Kyle Leonard, vice president of GameStop’s Trade & Pre-Owned Business. “Pre-owned games have value and can be traded at GameStop for cash or in-store credit. The sooner the games are traded, the more money they are worth and the faster customers can use that cash or in-store credit toward the purchase of the next game they want to play.”

GameStop Corp. operates as a multichannel video game retailer. It sells new and pre-owned video game hardware; physical and digital video game software; pre-owned and value video game products; video game accessories, such as controllers, gaming headsets, memory cards, and other add-ons for use with video game hardware and software; and digital products, counting downloadable content, network points cards, prepaid digital and online timecards, and digitally downloadable software.

Finally, CNO Financial Group Inc (NYSE:CNO), ended its last trade with -1.82% loss, and closed at $17.27.

CNO Financial Group declared that its board of directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share on the Company’s common shares. The dividend will be payable September 24, 2015, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 10, 2015.
