The Foolish bottom line

Betting on gaming companies might be an interesting investment, but I think it’s still premature to determine if these companies are on their way to recovery. Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) and Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS) are mostly exposed to Macau. Caesars Entertainment Corp (NASDAQ:CZR) is mostly exposed to the U.S. This may partly explain the difference between the profit margins of these companies. If the global economy slowly rises, all of these companies will reflect that in their bottom lines. Nonetheless, the high debt of these companies will keep their financial risk high.
