Stock News
Oct 17

Gaming stocks experienced a broad decline, with Melco International Development (00200) falling 3.21% to HKD 4.53; Paradise Entertainment (01180) decreased by 2.56% to HKD 0.76; Sands China Ltd (01928) dropped 1.65% to HKD 17.93; and Wynn Macau (01128) fell 1.56% to HKD 6.30. According to a report from HSBC Global Research, the total gaming revenue (GGR) in Macau for the first 12 days of October reached MOP 9.65 billion, with the average daily revenue for the second week of October at MOP 593 million, marking a year-on-year decrease of 8% and a weekly drop of 46%, exceeding the historical average decline of 39%. As the growth of Macau's gaming total revenue slows, HSBC anticipates limited short-term upside for gaming stocks' prices, despite potential support from a low base in December for Q4 gaming revenue growth. Citigroup, based on last week's underwhelming gaming revenue performance, revised down its estimated total gaming revenue for October from MOP 23 billion to MOP 22 billion (approximately 83% of October 2019; a year-on-year increase of 6%).
