Big profit for Gaming stocks

Strong Performance in April

This year, gaming stocks have shown a significant positive trend, with April standing out as an exceptionally strong month. According to financial consultant Applied Analysis, based in Las Vegas, the average stock prices for the top 10 slot machine manufacturers and casino operators experienced double-digit increases.

Upcoming Earnings Reports

While casino operators have not yet reported their earnings, key players such as Boyd Gaming Corp., Wynn Resorts, and Las Vegas Sands Corp. are expected to release their reports this week. Brian Gordon, a partner at Applied Analysis, mentioned that the market's focus is less on past results from January through March and more on future prospects and what lies ahead.

Stock Price Increases

April witnessed impressive gains in stock prices for several major casino companies:

  • Las Vegas Sands: Average daily stock price surged by over 131% compared to March.
  • MGM Mirage: Stock price increased by 97%.
  • Regional Casino Operators: Ameristar Casinos saw a 26% increase, Pinnacle Entertainment rose by 44%, and Penn National Gaming climbed 33%.

Historical Context

In August of last year, 9 out of the 10 tracked companies showed increases. However, it is important to note that the current income levels of gaming stocks are still below those from April 2008.

Looking Ahead

The gaming stocks sector has shown notable growth, but the travel industry has also been experiencing its own trends. The question remains whether April’s performance was a unique occurrence or an indication of a sustained rise in the gaming sector. We will need to monitor future developments to gain clearer insights, as Gordon suggests.
