Dernières nouvelles pour MGM Resorts Intl (NYSE:MGM) Stock

MGM Resorts Intl

MGM Resorts is the largest resort operator on the Las Vegas Strip with 35,000 guest rooms and suites, representing about one fourth of all units in the market. The company's Vegas properties include MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Park MGM, Luxor, New York-New York, and Bellagio. The Strip contributed approximately 62% of total EBITDAR in 2023. MGM also owns US regional assets, which represented a low 20s share of 2023 EBITDAR (MGM's Macao EBITDAR was 17% of the total in 2023). MGM's US sports and i-gaming operations are currently a high-single-digit percentage of its total revenue. The company also operates the 56%-owned MGM China casinos with a new property that opened on the Cotai Strip in early 2018. We estimate MGM will open a resort in Japan in 2030.

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading higher. Investors may be reacting to the US presidential election and its impact on consumer spending.

The Los Angeles Dodgers won its eighth World Series title in 2024 with a comeback victory over the New York Yankees in Game 5. While the win could be great for Dodgers fans because it is the team's second title in four years, it could also help predict the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential election.</a>
What Happened: The Dodgers and Yankees — the two most valuable teams in key television markets — having faced off in the 2024 World Series <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/10/41521768/world-series-yankees-dodgers-showdown-could-boost-fox-betting-odds-how-to-watch-matchup-of">could help</a> the quarterly financial results of Fox Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>). The World Series saw strong <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/world-series-ratings-dodgers-win-in-game-5-draws-largest-audience-in-7-years-003748091.html">viewership </a>thanks to the matchup and strong interest from Japanese fans thanks to Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani, who is from the country.
Similar to the Dodgers winning two championships in the past four years, the National Football League's (NFL) Kansas City Chiefs have had<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37062134/kansas-city-chiefs-win-super-bowl-lviii-patrick-mahomes-says-we-are-not-done"> success in recent years</a>. The NFL team has Super Bowl wins in 2020, 2023 and 2024.
The Chiefs&#8217; Super Bowl <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/02/15233906/mahomes-shines-as-kansas-city-chiefs-clinch-first-super-bowl-title-in-50-years">win in 2020 </a>was its first Super Bowl championship in 50 years and kicked off a run that has the team considered one of the most recent NFL dynasties with three Super Bowl wins in four years.
Taking a look at the stats above, there's something in common, as pointed out by Ally Sammarco on <a href="https://x.com/Ally_Sammarco/status/1851981226892001530">X</a>.
In 2020, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, the Dodgers won the World Series and Donald Trump lost the presidential election. In 2024, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, the Dodgers won the World Series and Trump is running for president again, with the outcome to be determined.
Sammarco's post went viral on X with over two million views as the outcomes of the sports championships could be a precursor to the 2024 election and good news for the Democratic Party and Kamala Harris.
With 30 Major League Baseball (MLB) teams and 32 NFL teams, each season there is a 1/30 chance of a team winning the World Series and a 1/32 chance of a team winning the Super Bowl. Add the two outcomes together and there is a 1/960 chance of a specific MLB team and a specific NFL team each winning titles in the same year.
Of course in the case of the Chiefs and Dodgers, the teams have been good in recent years and among the favorites to win championships.
Tuesday's presidential election will determine whether the sports championships helped predict the winner or if the stat will go down only in sports history for the same two teams winning four years later.

</ul>
 What's Next: Trump is currently the betting favorite to win the 2024 presidential election, with odds of -182 at BetMGM UK, which is a unit of a joint venture owned by MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) and Entain. Harris is the underdog at odds of +150. Trump has a 61.74% implied chance of winning the election based on the odds, with Harris having a 38.26% chance, according to <a href="https://www.actionnetwork.com/politics/2024-presidential-election-odds-and-predictions-what-are-candidates-chances-entering-final-weekend">data </a>from Action Network.
While there won't be a presidential election in 2025, the Dodgers and Chiefs could share in a championship stat again.
The Dodgers, fresh off their 2024 World Series title, are currently the favorites to win the 2025 World Series with odds of +400 at sportsbook DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>), ranking ahead of the Yankees at +700.
The Chiefs, the only unbeaten team in the NFL for the 2024 season with a 7-0 record, are the favorites to win Super Bowl LIX in 2025. The Chiefs have odds of +400, edging out the Detroit Lions who are the next highest with odds of +600.
A Super Bowl win by the Chiefs in 2025 would make the team the first<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/02/37080383/three-peat-super-bowl-lix-odds-kansas-city-chiefs-back-to-back-to-back-payout"> in NFL history</a> to win three consecutive Super Bowls.

MGM Resorts shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q3 financial results.

MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) reported its third-quarter results after Wednesday's closing bell. Here's a look at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/n41636337/mgm-resorts-international-reports-third-quarter-2024-financial-and-operating-results">details from the quarter. </a>
The Details: MGM Resorts reported quarterly earnings of 54 cents per share, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of 61 cents. Quarterly revenue came in at $4.2 billion, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $4.21 billion.
<ul>
<li>Las Vegas Strip Resorts recorded net revenues of $2.1 billion in the quarter, an increase of 1% compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to an increase in non-gaming revenue, partially offset by a decrease in casino revenue. </li>
<li>Regional Operations recorded net revenues of $952&nbsp;million in the current quarter, compared to $925&nbsp;million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 3%, due primarily to an increase in casino revenue. </li>
<li>MGM China recorded net revenues of $929 million in the current quarter compared to $813 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 14%. The current quarter was positively affected by the recovery of operations after the removal of COVID-19-related travel and entry restrictions in the first quarter of 2023.</li>

</ul>
Why It's Important: The betting odds above illustrate the importance of the seven swing states that have lower odds of one candidate winning.
The majority of the states have a huge favorite to win the 2024 presidential election based on past voting history.
Odds of -10000 mark a huge betting favorite as a $100 bet would profit $1 betting on this outcome.
The implied odds vary for each state with -10000 the highest betting odds, but the highest implied odds for Trump listed at 98.06%. Trump has a 98.06% chance of winning four different states (Mississippi, South Dakota, Tennessee, Wyoming).
Harris's top state by betting implied odds is Vermont at 98.06% followed by Maryland at 97.12%.
There is one state with split odds even of -118 betting odds and a 50% chance of each candidate winning and that is the key swing state of Michigan.
The next tightest market predicted by the betting odds above is Wisconsin with Trump the favorite at -133 and Harris the underdog at +100.
Based on the odds above, Trump is predicted to win at least six of the seven swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin), with Michigan a current coin-flip in the betting odds.

<li>Plaintiffs filed appeal after district court dismissed case</li>
</ul>
The Justice Department filed an amicus brief supporting customers who accused Ceasars Entertainment Inc. and other Las Vegas hotel companies of using algorithms to fix prices.
"Pricing algorithms can process more information more rapidly than humans aided by prior communications technologies," the DOJ said in a brief <a href="https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/document/GibsonetalvCendynGroupLLCetalDocketNo2435769thCirJun072024CourtDo/1?doc_id=X1C3FTC0O19985PKTQSAR19NQ0H">filed</a> Thursday in the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. "For this reason, such algorithms can increase the means and opportunities for collusion among competitors."
The Vegas case is the first of its kind to reach a federal appeals court and is expected to impact similar suits going forward.
A group of consumer plaintiffs who stayed at various Vegas hotels filed an <a href="https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/document/GibsonetalvCendynGroupLLCetalDocketNo2435769thCirJun072024CourtDo?doc_id=XN44RIOULS87MRO4N2HPLUJE1C">appeal</a> to the Ninth Circuit after Judge Miranda Du of the US District Court for the District of Nevada <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/caesars-other-vegas-hotels-win-dismissal-of-price-fixing-suit">dismissed</a> the case in May, saying they failed to plausibly allege a tacit agreement between the hotels to inflate room prices using algorithms built by the Rainmaker Group, a Cendyn Group LLC subsidiary.
In her ruling, Du said she reached her <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/las-vegas-ruling-offers-roadmap-for-ai-clashes-with-antitrust">decision</a> because the hotel-casinos signed up for the pricing software services at different times and the hotels weren't bound by the software's recommendations. A nearly identical suit accusing Atlantic City hotel-casinos was <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/hotel-casino-rulings-reveal-flaws-in-ai-price-fixing-allegations">dismissed</a> late last month on similar grounds.
The DOJ rejected Du's notion that the freedom to reject the software's pricing recommendations meant no collusion took place.

'DOJ Backs Suit Accusing Vegas Hotels Of Algorithmic Price-Fixing' - Bloomberg Law

The head-to-head matchup between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to be close according to election polls, but prediction markets and betting odds are favoring a higher likelihood of a landslide win in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential election.</a>
What Happened: With less than two weeks until Election Day, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/election-poll">election polls show</a> a close race between Trump and Harris, as past months have predicted.
As the election nears, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41518070/donald-trump-leads-but-harris-field-goal-could-win-the-game-says-analyst-who-thinks-predic">prediction markets </a>and sportsbooks have Trump with a better chance of winning with the latest odds showing his victory could be more decisive than the previously expected close race.
While betting on the outcome of U.S. elections is illegal at sportsbooks in the U.S., other countries offer betting options.
Odds from BetMGM UK, which is part of the BetMGM joint venture owned by MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) and Entain, offers betting on the presidential election.
The sportsbook currently lists Trump as the betting favorite to win the 2024 election at -182 and an implied chance of 58.71% to win the election. Harris is listed as the underdog with odds of +130 and an implied chance of 41.29% to win, as <a href="https://www.actionnetwork.com/politics/presidential-election-odds-presidential-election-predictions-kamala-harris-donald-trump">reported </a>by Action Network.
In money terms, this means a $100 bet on Trump to win would pay out a profit of $54.95 if he wins, while a $100 bet on Harris to win would pay out a profit of $130 if she wins.
Bettors have other options available on the sportsbook including individual states and the number of electoral college votes for each candidate.
Here are the current betting odds for Trump's electoral college vote totals and the implied percentage chance of the outcome happening:
<ul>
<li>179 or fewer: +2,000, 3.37%</li>
<li>180 to 209: +1,000, 6.43%</li>
<li>240-269: +350, 15.73%</li>
<li>270-299: +225, 21.78%</li>
<li>300-329: +175, 25.73%</li>
<li>330-359: +500, 11.79%</li>
<li>360+: +2,000, 3.37%</li>
</ul>
For Harris the most likely outcome according to the betting odds is winning 210 to 239 electoral college votes with a 25.77% chance.
With Trump now the more likely favorite to win the 2024 election, bettors could wager on the former president winning a specific range of electoral college votes. Getting between 300 and 329 electoral college votes is currently the favorite at +175.
Outcomes of 270 to 299 and 330 to 359 payout better odds of +225 and +500, respectively.
Here are the current profit payouts of several outcomes for $100 bet:
<ul>
<li>270-299: $225</li>
<li>300 to 329: $175</li>
<li>330 to 359: $500</li>
</ul>
While each of the outcomes could be bet, a person could also bet on Trump to win with the first and third ranges and hope that Trump doesn't fall in the 300 to 329 electoral college votes range.

</ul>
Landslide Victory?: The definition of a landslide victory will vary by source. There are a total of 538 electoral college votes available and a candidate needs 270 to win the election. Some of the most dominant wins in presidential election history have been Ronald Reagan securing 489 and 525 electoral college votes in 1980 and 1984, respectively. Richard Nixon secured 520 electoral college votes in the 1972 election.
While the odds for Trump getting over 450 electoral college votes is unlikely, he could potentially secure the most electoral college votes since the 426 won by George H.W. Bush in the 1988 election.
A map on <a href="https://www.270towin.com/">270towin.com</a> shows Republicans likely to win at least 219 votes and the Democrats to win at least 226 votes. This is based on the states that typically lead one way or the other historically.
What's left are the seven swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. These states represent 93 votes total in the election and are likely to determine the outcome of the race.
Biden won six of the seven swing states in the 2020 election, including several flipping from Trump's win in the 2016 election.
If Trump is able to win all seven swing states, he would likely sit at a total of 312 electoral college votes, falling into the 300 to 329 window. This could be one likely betting option. If Trump does not win all seven swing states, the more likely outcome is falling into the 270 to 299 window, which pays out more to bettors.
Winning 312 and all seven swing states will still likely be considered a landslide and would be more than the 304 won by Trump in 2016 and the 306 won by Joe Biden in 2020.
To win the 360+ needed for a $2,000 profit on a $100 bet, Trump would need to win all Republican-favored states, all seven swing states and flip some typical Democrat-winning states red.

<h2>Get to Know MGM Resorts Intl Better</h2>
MGM Resorts is the largest resort operator on the Las Vegas Strip with 35,000 guest rooms and suites, representing about one fourth of all units in the market. The company's Vegas properties include MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Park MGM, Luxor, New York-New York, and Bellagio. The Strip contributed approximately 62% of total EBITDAR in 2023. MGM also owns US regional assets, which represented low-20s of 2023 EBITDAR (MGM's Macao EBITDAR was 17% of the total in 2023). MGM's US sports and iGaming operations are currently a high-single-digit percentage of its total revenue. The company also operates the 56%-owned MGM China casinos with a new property that opened on the Cotai Strip in early 2018. Further, we estimate MGM will open a resort in Japan in 2030.

<h2>The Significance of Analyst Ratings Explained</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.
