MGM Resorts Intl (NYSE:MGM) Bolsa, Informe de interés en corto

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.

<h2>Delving into MGM Resorts Intl's Background</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 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.

<h2>What Are Analyst Ratings?</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Analysts may supplement their ratings with predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, offering investors a more comprehensive outlook. However, investors should be mindful that analysts, like any human, can have subjective perspectives influencing their forecasts.

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.
