With retailers expecting a very gloomy holiday sales season this year, I am expecting that casinos will not fair much better.  This is not good news for Boy Gaming which already is trading at or near 52 week lows.  Obviously over time, these stocks will come back as the consumer recovers from the current downturn in the economy, but it is going to take at least 12 -18 months to see any sustainable revenue growth with this stock.

They have properties Downtown, off-strip and a mege project under construction (which is a key aspect) on the Strip (where The Stardust used to be). The fact that construction is ongoing in the current economy means that once things get better (and inevitably thin...

6/27 - "Today, I'm adding Boyd Gaming to the mock portfolio as a stock to own...Boyd currently owns attractive properties catering to the Las Vegas locals market, along with riverboat and land casinos in Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi and Louisiana. Boyd also jointly owns the popular high-end Borgata Casino in Atlantic City with MGM Mirage." "Owning Boyd shares is a good bet today for two reasons. One is that the stock is trading at a trough earnings multiple that compares to that of the 2001 recession, when casino industry profits were hurt by the terrorist attacks of September 11. The s...
