Six Flags Entertainment is experiencing significant challenges as outlined by various experts. The company has suffered from adverse weather conditions, including extreme heatwaves, which resulted in park shutdowns during the peak summer season. This has negatively impacted their seasonal pass sales, particularly as their target demographic primarily consists of lower-income consumers who are currently facing inflationary pressures. Additionally, the much-anticipated new ride, Siren's Curse, has faced repeated breakdowns, further disappointing visitors. The recent merger with Cedar Fair has not generated the expected increase in attendance, as evidenced by a concerning 9% year-over-year decline in Q2. Compounding these issues, Six Flags is burdened with a heavy balance sheet, reflected by an alarming leverage ratio of 6.3, which is significantly higher than the acceptable threshold of 3.

DON'T BUY

Everything has gone wrong. Bad weather, including brutal heatwaves, led to park shutdowns in the summer which hurt seasonal pass sales. SIX depends on lower-income consumers, who are struggling with inflation these days. The new ride, Siren's Curse, their crown jewel broke down many times last summer. The merger with Cedar Fair hasn't boosted attendance, which is -9% year over year in Q2. SIX has delivered brutal quarters. They have a terrible balance sheet, with a 6.3 leverage ratio (3 is high).

DON'T BUY
The biggest public amusement park operator apart from Disney. He suspects this will under-perform. He does not think this will perform well despite analysts' expectations as we are heading into a recession. (Analysts’ price target is $58.00)
WAIT
Interesting name. Ordinarily you would look at this as an early or mid-cycle, not late-cycle, however employment is so strong right now. You want to see robust consumer spending, jobs growth in the U.S. is fantastic and robust. You want to make sure 2019 is panning out OK before stepping in consumer spending stocks like this one.
