This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

Las Vegas Sands Corp. has faced significant challenges recently, notably a decline of 19% in January, attributed to disappointing performance in the Macau market and higher operating expenses. After shifting focus away from its Las Vegas assets in favor of expanding its presence in Asia, the company has reported results that beat both top and bottom line expectations. However, this was overshadowed by concerns over diminished margins in its Macau operations. While there are some indications of operational success, the overall sentiment among analysts is cautious due to ongoing headwinds in the gambling sector and broader economic concerns. Despite improvements in earnings, the stock's recent performance suggests a tough road ahead for Las Vegas Sands Corp.

TOP PICK
Sell January Puts with a strike of $45 for $1.82. This should give you a premium of 4% profit for 30 days. If the stock goes down, he will end up owning it at the price, which he would like. (Better way to get income than owning bonds.)
COMMENT
Owns properties in Las Vegas, but 75% of current revenues and 85% future revenues will come from Asia. Sold his holdings but is looking to go back in. Very volatile so watch where you buy it.
BUY
Became extremely overbought at $55 and was due for a pullback. Beta of 3 or 4 times so will have major moves up or down which can work well for you. Ranks very high in his model. Tremendous long term growth.
DON'T BUY
Have done very well recently but are trading at 31X earnings. Not a believer in momentum investing because it is dangerous.
COMMENT
Momentum play that used to have a huge debt. They have less exposure to Las Vegas and more exposed to the Asia market. He is not sure you want to go long options.
BUY
When on the ropes in 2009, concern was their ability to finance. As the corporate bond market opened up, they were able to refinance. They are more Macao and Singapore than Las Vegas and are having tremendous success in both locations. Beat the most recent quarter by 90%.
TOP PICK
Asian exposure is greater than what the name implies. Another way of playing the emerging markets specifically Malaysia, China, Singapore, etc. Revenues from US are 25% but in future will be closer to 15%.
DON'T BUY
Visibility is a little bit cloudy for him so not a business he would own but they are doing some good things. Probably have about 70% of their revenue comes out of Macao. Also have a Singapore operation. Will only earn about $.35 a share this year.
BUY
Had been on the ropes financially but were able to refinance themselves and he could see the possibility of pretty good upside to the earnings. Probably the only gaming company with new facilities coming on line in the next couple of years. Macao has turned around very quickly. $5.8 billion new casino coming on line in Singapore in the next year.
COMMENT
One of the things he likes as opposed to their competition is that a disproportionate amount of their revenue is coming from Macao. However, it is too speculative for him.
DON'T BUY
Wouldn't be inclined to put anything into anything that is dependent on US consumer and discretionary spending. Even with the decline, the valuations are so stretched out that he still finds them expensive.
HOLD
Has done very well. Resistance point will be around the $19-$20 range. Use $17.50 for your stoploss. If it breaks through $20, it could go to $25-$30 easily.
COMMENT
(Market Call Minute.) Has done the majority of its work to the upside. Still positive on the refinancing of their debt.
DON'T BUY
This one is a gamble. Have a ton of debt. Very high-risk proposition.
COMMENT
Chart looks like it is attempting to break out of the long-term period of “do-nothing”. There will be some resistance at $14 and if it can break through that it will go higher.
