MGM Cancels Shows Through August
Many Now Facing Layoffs In Wake Of Decision
https://kxnt.radio.com/articles/news/mgm-cancels-shows-through-august
I have a friend who is a stage rigger. If enhanced unemployment is not passed, he is moving out of state. Also of note... these layoffs come with continuing health benefit expense to employers. As stated in this blurb, "Employees who are let go will be able to still apply for emergency grants for health benefits from the casino through November 29, 2020." Elevated costs don't/won't end in August.
Another VERY BIG deal is that 2021 CES (Consumer Electronics Show) will be 100% virtual. There will be no in-person convention floor! Which spanned every hotel in Vegas!! First week of January. CES is one the THE BIGGEST shows for Vegas. 2020 CES had attendance of 170,000!! It is closed to the public... that is registered attendees!

Boyd Gaming price target raised to $30 from $24 at JPMorgan 08:42 BYD JPMorgan analyst Joseph Greff raised the firm's price target on Boyd Gaming to $30 from $24 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares following the company's Q2 results. The results were much better than expected, with June generating levels of "strong (and positive)" EBITDAR following recent staggered property re-openings, Greff tells investors in a research note. The analyst likes the regional gaming landscape.

Another sporting goods stock goes crazy Big 5 I have not heard of this Co. Basically anything having to do with Camping, fishing, boating, outdoor sports, firearms, <-- anything that can be accomplished on a staycation is being bought like crazy by consumers... A company like Eastern Mountain sports- I think they may of gone out of business if only they had held on... Patagonia?
Floor & Decor $71.60 to--> $69.20 $2.50 retrace... meh...
I've been thinking about getting back into SE. Sea Ltd. That Singapore stock that worked so well for us I got out too early.
Lets ask App Annie--
Additionally, App Annie, a closely watched app data research platform, said that the Sea-owned title Free Fire was the third-most-downloaded gaming app in the world in the second quarter, and No. 5 in monthly active users. App Annie said that overall gaming downloads were up 20% from a year ago in the second quarter due to the pandemic, and said that Free Fire,a battle royale game, was the fastest-growing title in the action category.
Free Firewas initially launched in 2017, and was the most downloaded game of 2019. Its strong performance in the second quarter shows it continues to have staying power.
SE $116-$119

I'm getting to that stage where I'd rather get back into some mistakes/// Our generator stock has kept going up. We got out around $122 I believe... It seemd like a great gain at the time from $100... but now it retrospect...

Nevada reports June statewide gaming win down 45.55% to $566.81M
UV radiation between 200 and 300 nanometers can effectively kill a virus and stop it from replicating itself. As of now such devices require an expensive, bulky mercury-containing gas discharge lamp with a short battery life.
Much more portable, longer lasting, energy efficient, and environmentally friendly UV light emitting diodes can be developed. The necessary LEDs already exist, but the process has been complicated by the fact that electrode materials must also be transparent.
“You have to ensure a sufficient UV light dose to kill all the viruses,” says Roman Engel-Herbert, Penn State associate professor of materials science, physics and chemistry, in a release. “This means you need a high-performance UV LED emitting a high intensity of UV light, which is currently limited by the transparent electrode material being used.”
Attaining transparent electrode materials has already proven difficult for smartphones and LED lighting, and researchers say it is even harder when it comes to ultraviolet light.
“There is currently no good solution for a UV-transparent electrode,” explains Joseph Roth, doctoral candidate in Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State. “Right now, the current material solution commonly employed for visible light application is used despite it being too absorbing in the UV range. There is simply no good material choice for a UV-transparent conductor material that has been identified.”
So, the team at Penn State, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Minnesota, decided to seek out a new material with a suitable composition. Right away they zeroed in on a newly discovered class of transparent conductors: a material called strontium niobate. After obtaining some samples of strontium niobate from Japan, the research team tested the material as a UV transparent conductor.
“We immediately tried to grow these films using the standard film-growth technique widely adopted in industry, called sputtering,” Roth notes. “We were successful.”
“While our first motivation in developing UV transparent conductors was to build an economic solution for water disinfection, we now realize that this breakthrough discovery potentially offers a solution to deactivate COVID-19 in aerosols that might be distributed in HVAC systems of buildings,” he concludes.<!!!!!!!!!!
Woa! All making sense now AQUA water has undoubtedly also discovered this!!!
Strontium Niobate... and the sprays they can be subtly wafted in through the HVAC!!! I've tied together three of our themes! This is the future.
Besides just personal use, UV light devices can conceivably be used to disinfect large public areas like parks, theaters, buses, and subways.
The study is published in Physics Communications.

Good AM StonedInvestors-
Basketball is back! And you know what that means-- Stocks are down. Basketball is in a bubble and has a 100% success rate at testing neg for Covid. Clearly they are doing things the right way. This should prove for some legitimate gambling and thus take some steam out of the stock market. I expect this round down to be worse than the first, all the earnings in the world won't make a difference. We now will need a serious breakthrough in the Vaccine.
Some Interesting stock news today)
1>Portfolio position HOLX reported and guided.
Hologic sees Q4 adjusted EPS 95c-$1.15, consensus 69c 16:02
HOLX Sees Q4 revenue $925M-$1.025B, consensus $815.47M. "Strong demand for our COVID tests and the ongoing recovery of our other divisions are enabling us to provide guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020," said Karleen Oberton, Hologic's Chief Financial Officer. "But because our business environment remains highly fluid and unpredictable, we are providing wider guidance ranges than usual."
That wider range is all exponentially higher than the old range!
Remember those Insider sells Van??????
In other news)
I see one of our HVAC plays is getting analyst love- Trane.
Carrier reported and beat!
INOV- Reported (on watch list)
SNE- Former position upgraded.
CHDN- PR about potential move into Mich through an Indian reservation///

TT- Blows Away Number -!
A) Trane reports Q2 adjusted cont ops EPS $1.27, consensus 74c 06:35 TT Reports Q2 revenue $3.1B, consensus $2.79B.
$103 Last I have this in one account in the $80's I forget where we were looking here at ET--
I have to go back through these 50 pages!!!
B) INOV is our med heath somewhat HMO play...... They got that Walmart deal. -$22.50
C) CHDN- Is a tougher nut to crack-- They have some clear blemishes-
Churchill Downs (CHDN) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.53 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.55. This compares to earnings of $2.83 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
CHDN posted revenues of $185.10 million for the quarter ended June 2020, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 45.49%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $477.40 million.
It's tough to make an argument that business is good yet they have a very strong back office/ betting on apps and have a good business plan of entering various states with one outlet or partnership and then shoveling the money over to CHDN's computers. Actually more advanced than a lot of these other names, everyone is kind of doing the same thing now.
D) Sony has held up well! It's a former position that we sold out at $72 area and is now $78 with a new console coming out it may be the last chance to buy Sony here... I'm surprised their semi conductor business has held up so well.
