I owned a Fred Bear polar bear bow. [ Edit;That's his real name/company name]
But for a bear hunt, use inverse etfs/LOL or my .30-06 is a good bear killer.

Mr Wink! Thank you so much for contributing. The Vegas thing is real-- real dead. So the regional gaming is the way to go. And therein you have to create sports betting. All of this is happening. Boyd looks to have a lot of swanky weird properties in that Vid.. but I agree in general gambling with a mask and everything and no drinks... it's not good. This all doesn't stop incredible pent up demand that people will relieve through their cell phones connection--
Since you are on the ground... What do you think of the Ceaser's El Dorado merger? I'd really like to know. ~stoney

DETR: Nearly Half Of Jobs Lost During Pandemic Return
Unemployment Rate For Las Vegas Still In Double Digits
Highlight mine
The unsaid regarding unemployment is that a NV court found DETR guilty, and has required DETR to pay gig workers and other "delayed" pandemic related unemployment claims this coming week. A one year plan to fix the system is required by the court by July 30. Bottomline, unemployment and state finance for Nevada has been manipulated.

Two Local Businesses Fined For Non-Compliance With COVID-19 Safety Guidelines
https://kxnt.radio.com/articles/press-release/two-local-businesses-fined-for-non-compliance
Highlight mine
Where the hell is the media?!? One of the two was a Walmart location with a 12K fine and Plant World, a 50+ year old local landscape nursery with a 5K fine. I say follow the money.
----------------
Many here expect Clark County (Las Vegas) and other Nevada counties to be locked down any moment. I got a haircut and replenished some household essentials yesterday, just in case.
Robinhood, sports-books and stimulus checks.
We might wanna find a rehab/treatment-center stock for the portfolio too Stoney. Is 'The Addiction Network' listed on the OTC?
Personally, I am looking for UV light and other technological room cleaning methods/systems. Most I have found are tiny... but this idea, if a given technology is ready for primetime (which is beyond the easily accessible data online), is a global winner and/or an acquisition candidate. IMO of course.
Thank god Stoney has someone else posting here. We gotta keep him around. I've been carrying the weight way too long. The man's brilliant in his own right. Trust me.%%
Not a stock tip;
but that one is still strong/upper part of 52week trend+ good dividend. Lets see what it does this week @ 50 day moving average...………………………………………………………………………..
%
Not a recommendation. DAL goes to zero.
Weird feeling of danger and it's not just the Bear. Vegas just does not sound good. NYC is just empty still. California is close to a lock down. Marlin players now have endangered the whole return to sports idea.
Obviously Draftkings is getting slammed! This is worrisome for football... But in a weird way good for the overall stock market! No sports means stocks are the only action in town outside of virtual poker and virtual 21 and such...

& I do need a health providing kind of stock... It went $20-$22. Retraced to $21 Fri and is now broaching that high- Close to a YTD break out. This looks like a winner.
ABUS-
Arbutus Biopharma has for some years owned the rights to a technology that can be used to deliver messenger RNA to a patient's cells. Back in January 2019,Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA), whose entire drug platform is based upon messenger RNA, filed a petition with the U.S. Patent Office to have the small biotech firm's drug-delivery patent declared invalid. Instead, on Thursday, the agency's Patent Trial and Appeal Board ruled in favor of Arbutus.<--
The ruling is important as Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine candidate uses technology that's covered by this patent. The experimental vaccines that the company is developing use mRNA to issue instructions to the body's cells to start manufacturing proteins that will trigger an immune system response. But a major issue with this method is the matter of treatment delivery -- how to get these instructions into the body's cells. Several years ago, Moderna licensed its delivery technology -- the use of lipid nanoparticles -- from a small Canadian company called Acuitas. That company, it turns out, had licensed its technology from Arbutus Biopharma -- and it did not have rights to sublicense it.<---- Wooooooo.
What could this mean for ABUS if the vax hits? > Is there a sliding scale here... a % ?
Conflicting analyst thoughts-))
-Arbutus Biopharma upside priced in, Baird downgrades to Neutral 07:38 ABUS, MRNA As reported earlier, Baird analyst Madhu Kumar downgraded Arbutus Biopharma (ABUS) to Neutral from Outperform with a $4 price target. The analyst believes its positive court ruling against Moderna (MRNA) has been already priced in and with its substantial move yesterday, upside is limited.
The thing is the stock spiked all the way to $7 last week! from like $3 so I'm thinking this has more to go-$5 area currently )))
Today+ Arbutus Biopharma price target raised to $8 from $6 at B. Riley FBR 08:52 ABUS B. Riley FBR analyst… Story temporarily locked. To read stories as they happen please subscribe, Login above, or return tomorrow.
Lost in the mix is the devastating news about Ann Taylor- This is part of that " danger " feeling...
Ascena Retail Group Inc. — corporate parent of Ann Taylor, Lane Bryant and other chains — filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company said Thursday its restructuring plan will allow it to reduce its debt by $1 billion. It also will close an unspecified number of stores across all of its major banners, including shuttering all of its Catherines plus-size apparel locations.
Ascena’s bankruptcy is the scariest yet for the industry in the Covid-19 era, because the company’s collapse has the potential to create more devastating ripple effects than were caused by almost any of the other retail washouts that preceded it.
Ascena had nearly 2,800 stores as of February, a staggeringly large portfolio that includes Loft and kids’ shop Justice. That makes it a highly important tenant for many mall operators. The company accounted for 4.7% of annualized base rent at Tanger Factory Outlet Centers Inc., according to that operator’s latest quarterly filing, a share that makes Ascena its second-largest tenant behind only Gap Inc. For Simon Property Group Inc., only Gap and Victoria’s Secret parent L Brands Inc. account for a greater share of annual base rent than Ascena. It is in the top 10 for Brookfield Property Partners and Acadia Realty Trust.<----- Hummmm
Still looking for shorts Van...?
Ascena has not detailed exactly how many stores it will close. It committed to closing all of its Catherines outposts, which numbered almost 300 as of February. It said it will shutter a “significant” portion of its more than 800 Justice stores, and a “select” number of its Ann Taylor, Loft, Lane Bryant and Lou & Grey locations-- Ann Taylor and Justice stores are fixtures in traditional malls; Lane Bryant and Catherines chains are often in strip-shopping centers. Loft stores are found in mixed-use developments, while factory outposts of the Ann Taylor and Loft brands are mainstays in outlet malls. That means a wider variety of chains count it as a co-tenant and could feel pain from being next to an empty storefront. <-- ripple effect

Kaskela Law LLC Announces Investigation of Evoqua Water Technologies Corporation (AQUA) and Encourages Long-Term AQUA Stockholders to Contact the Firm
PHILADELPHIA, July 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kaskela Law LLC announces that it is investigating Evoqua Water Technologies Corporation ("Evoqua" or the "Company") (NYSE: AQUA) on behalf of the Company's stockholders.
A shareholder class action complaint was filed in federal court on behalf of investors who purchased shares of the Company's stock between November 1, 2017 and October 30, 2018. Among other things, the complaint alleges that during that time period "Evoqua engaged in increasingly aggressive tactics to artificially inflate its reported revenue, including fraudulent accounting manipulations in blatant violation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ('GAAP')."
Besides, the primary biz was/is water treatment (waste water, aquariums, etc). Not really the credentials for a front facing product for gaining the confidence of a traveling or vacationing consumer, IMO.
Thanks for the looksee into the industry! And yes, the economic damage to Vegas and basically everywhere reamins well hidden, but it is huge... much bigger than a bear. The US Fed can not print enough trillions to continue running in place. Should we add Europe or the rest of the North American continent into the conversation? And it's everywhere! Enough trillions can not be printed.
No Europe actually has really stabilized and their sports wagering is right back on track.
Using today's weakness in all these gambling stocks to pick up William Hill makes some sense.
Those lawsuits are a dime a dozen. I wouldn't let that stop me from looking into the company.
They have a great symbol I think that helps. Operating margins of 7% in the water business...
Return On Equity of 17%.
1.4 Billion rev----
Sitting a dollar above it's 50 & 200 day-
$19.50 now.
The more I look into AQUA the more I like! This may be a Idea For Now Stock!
How bout that!
For AQUA, shares are up 10.75% over the past week while the Zacks Technology Services industry is down 0.79% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 7.7% compares favorably with the industry's 1.72% performance as well.
While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Over the past quarter, shares of EVOQUA WATR TEC have risen 22.53%, and are up 42.71% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&P 500 has only moved 15.74% and 11.21%, respectively.---
THIS COULD BECOME A ROBIN HOOD STOCK--
>Earnings Outlook
-Over the past two months, 2 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost AQUA's consensus estimate, increasing from $0.44 to $0.45 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 2 estimates have moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period.

JUNE 23, 2020
Seven years before the coronavirus pandemic hit, Arthur Kreitenberg, a Los Angeles orthopedic surgeon, came up with an invention in his basement to quickly disinfect an airplane cabin using ultraviolet light.
He even bought airplane seats from the airline graveyard in the Mojave Desert to test his idea.
But the idea did not catch on quickly. His wife joked that Kreitenberg’s tinkering in the basement was “cheaper than having a girlfriend.” At the many aviation trade shows and conferences he attended to pitch his invention, few showed interest.
COVID-19 changed all of that.
Honeywell International, the multinational conglomerate with $37 billion in annual sales,announced this monththat it is teaming up with Kreitenberg to build the UV invention and distribute it to the world’s airlines. The company plans to build more than 100 units by the end of July, with production increasing in the following months.
