3 Reasons to Sell MGM Resorts

Updated

MGM Resorts has done well on the stock market over the past three years, but there are reasons to be wary of the stock going forward. A high debt level, slow growth markets, and more competition in Las Vegas are three of the reasons gaming analyst Travis Hoium highlights in the video below.

When MGM Resorts began constructing the CityCenter in Las Vegas, it was an audacious plan that seemed like a sure bet with its prime location in the center of The Strip. But Las Vegas hit a rough patch during the Great Recession and has yet to fully recover, so MGM has since turned its attention to a new market in Macau. This Chinese gaming enclave now holds the key to the company's future, and a new resort on Cotai may relieve the company from crushing debt.
