Macau's Rising Tide Lifts All Casinos

Macau's gaming revenue grew 19.6% in the third quarter and everyone with operations in the region benefited. Las Vegas Sandswas a clear winner with 32% growth and Melco Crown's City of Dreams grew 28% from a year ago.

Those growth rates aren't surprising because both companies are focused on the booming Cotai region. What was surprising is improvement made on the Macau Peninsula, where Wynn Resorts and MGM Resorts have operations. Wynn's revenue was up 9.6% in the quarter and MGM's EBITDA grew 25%. The Fool's Erin Miller sat down with Travis Hoium to see how this should impact investors' view of gaming stocks going forward.
