Wynn Resorts (WYNN) “Short” Follow Up

October 27, 2009

If you have been reading along, you would have scooped up two short calls that we made on Wynn Resorts (WYNN). The most recent was last week when we identified conditions that we found to be troubling for the casino operator. (Click HERE)

To top it off, Steve Wynn said in today’s conference call: “… it will not be expanding in the U.S. until management understands what is going on in the country.“

Interesting discussion from last week as Steve Wynn shows his disdain for the U.S. government’s current course.

We covered the shares today for clients at a 9% gain from the position and will look to short again if it moves toward $62.

    [...] Remember over the last 2 weeks when Wynn Resorts (WYNN) shares were on a roller-coaster? The company had a successful IPO of the Wynn Macau property to the tune of $1.3billion and then refinanced about $500 million of debt. Then came the awful earnings report that took the stock down hard. (Client accounts were short into the earnings and covered for a nice profit) [...]

Got something to say?
