10 Hottest Gambling Stocks Of 2025 So Far

7. Gambling.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:GAMB)

Gambling.com Group Limited offers marketing services to the global gambling industry, focused mainly on companies that offer online sports betting and casino facilities. Its stock is up 18.96% so far this year, outperforming the S&P 500’s 4.19% YTD returns.

As the US continues to legalize gambling, companies like GAMB are thriving. It can be considered a ‘Picks & Shovels’ play. It is a company that isn’t directly involved in running the gambling industry and only provides the parts that are critical in moving the industry. This not only saves the regulatory hassle but also means they don’t have to pay licensing fees.

Consequently, GAMB enjoys 90% gross margins as compared to the 50% margins that a typical sportsbook provider can manage. The firm continues to focus on acquisitions, which may decrease its cash pile in the short run but since the acquisitions hit the ground running and started generating revenue, it isn’t a red flag as far as the balance sheet is concerned.
