Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Consider Wynn Resorts. Year-to-date, WYNN stock has outpaced competitors with its shares breaking even in 2022 through early December while MGM stock has sunk 15% and Caesars 46%. Pretty good, right? However, in early November WYNN stock reported a Q3 revenue loss of $1.20 which was much higher than the street’s $1.03 prediction. Why? That Q3 included a two-week closure of their Macau casinos because of an increase in Covid cases. The company’s Las Vegas and Boston operations helped cushion the turbulence, but the coming winter (a period when Covid cases typically rise) looks uncertain.

Vegas tourism is white hot. Revenue per room was up 11% in May YOY, convention attendance up 2%, and visitors up 5%. MGM has over half its business from Vegas. But he doesn't like MGM's regional business and those patrons are struggling from higher inflation and interest rates. He Likes MGM, but prefers Wynne because it has more Vegas exposure. But Vegas' boom isn't pushing up Vegas stocks, which is frustrating. Frankly, the market is getting it wrong. When Wynne reports, their strong Macau business will shine.

Down 14% this month, because of concerns over China. Remember, there was very little activity in Macau because of Covid, so things can't get worse than that. Sure, China's general economic weakness could have an effect on Wynn Macau. Numbers show that Macau is bouncing back. WYNN just reported a revenue beat and huge earnings beat.
