		<description><![CDATA[We reiterate our Neutral recommendation on MICROS Systems Inc. (MCRS). Even though a few important contract wins dominated the overall performance of the company, its failure to get rid of a few lingering downsides obstructed its exit from the precarious zone. The major highlights of the past quarter were the continued winning and extension of projects. These included eminent patrons such as Bertucci’s Italian Restaurant, Wynn Resorts (WYNN), Ruby Tuesday (RT), etc., which averred their faith in the advanced solutions such as Table Management System (TMS), Simphony Enterprise, etc. provided by MICROS through the years. Investors’ interests have been of utmost importance to management under any condition. Currently, MICROS has a 2.2 million share repurchase authorization that was announced in fiscal first quarter 2012. With regard to this, the company ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Charles Dickens’ classic ‘A Tale of Two Cities’ begins: &#8220;It was the best of times, it was the worst of times&#8230;&#8221; Isn’t the world going through similar moments of despair and hope? The world hoped and hoped that the economic crisis that started in 2008 will soon end for the better with bailout packages and strong government intervention. Instead we faced crises &#8212; a seemingly never-ending series, one feeding into another. It all started with the financial crisis in the U.S. that quickly spread across the Atlantic to Europe, and the Mediterranean ‘drift’ that grew into a torrent and consumed North Africa and Southern Europe. The environment was created by poor governance, spendthrift ways, economic stagnation and high leverage – a heady cocktail that ousted governments, and created unstable markets ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Are the casinos with Macau operations at the top of their game, with no where to go but down? That&#8217;s a question gaming investors are asking after the reaction to Wynn Resorts (WYNN) earnings miss last week where the stock took a $20 (15%) dive. Despite posting net revenues up over 29% and a dramatic 170% surge in profits from the year ago quarter, the company missed adjusted estimates of $1.17 EPS with a $1.05 showing. Macau was still the source of growth for Wynn &#8212; vs. Las Vegas &#8212; but there are concerns that growth could be leveling off, especially as the Chinese economy slows down. I thought the stock was a buy last week on the overreaction, and I look right today with the bounce off of $117 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

The overall positive tone of this morning&#8217;s earnings reports should help the market shake off some of the negativity from Monday&#8217;s sell off. The better than expected June Housing Starts and Permits numbers this morning should also sentiment.Bank of America (BAC) reported results that were inline with its pre-announced multi-billion mortgage settlement. The inline results aside, the banking giant will remain under the spotlight to additional litigation exposure, questions about capital adequacy, and the dividend issue.

There will be 348 firms reporting, and 108 of those are in the S&#38;P 500. By next Friday we should have a very good handle on how the overall earnings season will go. The firms reporting this week are sort of like a who&#8217;s who of U.S. industry including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Caterpillar (CAT), General Electric (GE), International Business Machines (IBM), Intel (INTC), McDonald&#8217;s (MCD), Schlumberger (SLB) and Verizon (VZ). That is an interesting cross section of U.S. business. We have a relatively light economic data calendar, so earnings should be front and center, along with the sovereign debt situations on both ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We recently downgraded our rating on Wynn Resorts Limited (WYNN) to Neutral from Outperform. The company, along with its subsidiaries, is a leading developer, owner and operator of destination casino resorts with properties in Las Vegas and Macau. The company, based in Nevada, reported first quarter 2011 earnings above the Zacks Consensus Estimate buoyed by booming Macau operations and improved performance at Las Vegas. Given its strong brand name, we believe that Wynn Resorts is well positioned to command a premium rate compared to the overall gaming and lodging industry. The company is well placed both strategically and financially.  Wynn Resorts also stands to gain market share as the economy progresses toward recovery. Wynn Macau’s contribution to the company’s earnings has increased significantly in the last two years. The resort ]]></description>

The unit will also have the option to raise an additional $1.0 billion of senior secured credit facilities.

		<description><![CDATA[The hotels and lodging industry seems to be back in demand, thanks to the gradual global economic recovery. The industry has been witnessing a return of business travelers and a growing demand for leisure. Riding on the back of improvement in the U.S. economy and the consequent rise in operating metrics, most of the hoteliers have started reporting strong quarterly results. Profits are expected to rise further in 2011 as bookings continue to improve. Positive estimate revisions give us ample evidence of this growth momentum. International Growth Since the U.S. market is somewhat saturated, hoteliers are exploring growth opportunities abroad. International markets offer greater potential based on the higher pace of economic growth that they currently enjoy. The U.S.-based companies are targeting fast-growing emerging economies. With lackluster U.S. GDP growth ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Las Vegas Sands Corp. (LVS) recorded adjusted earnings of 37 cents per share in the first quarter of 2011, which fell shy of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 44 cents but improved considerably from 7 cents reported in the year-earlier quarter. On a GAAP basis, the company reported earnings of 28 cents per share, compared with a loss of 4 cents in the year-ago quarter. The improvement primarily reflects a rise in operating income partially offset by increases in net income attributable to non-controlling interests (primarily Sands China Ltd.) and income tax expense. Quarterly revenue climbed 58.2% year over year to $2.11 billion, but lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.12 billion. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) shot up significantly to $745.7 million from ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts (WYNN) first quarter 2011 earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate with higher-than-expected top-line growth. With the global economy showing gradual recovery, the company is experiencing an increase in demand. Its Las Vegas business, which was worst hit at the time of slowdown, is also rebounding with increased room rates and bookings. Additionally, with strong momentum in Macau, we expect the earnings of the company to increase going forward. Moreover, we remain encouraged with the company&#8217;s strong brand name, healthy balance sheet, strong cash flow position, relatively low capital requirements, future growth driver in Cotai, and its ability to execute in a difficult operating environment. During the quarter, the company also enhanced shareholder value by doubling its dividend. Thus, we maintain our Outperform rating on the stock. WYNN RESRTS ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN) reported its fourth-quarter 2010 adjusted earnings of 91 cents per share, handily beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 63 cents and well above the year-earlier earnings of 8 cents. On a GAAP basis, net income was $114.2 million or 91 cents per share versus net loss of $5.2 million or 4 cents recorded in the comparable quarter prior year. The results were boosted by higher-than-expected revenues. Net revenue surged 52.9% year over year to $1,237.2 million outpacing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,114.0 million. The outperformance was primarily attributable to its booming Macau operations. For full fiscal 2010, adjusted net income attributable to Wynn Resorts was $261.0 million, or $2.11 per diluted share versus 31.7 million, or 26 cents per diluted share recorded in the prior-year ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The hotels and lodging industry seems to be back in demand, thanks to the gradual global economic recovery. The industry has been witnessing a return of business travelers, with a rising demand for leisure. However, the rate of improvement in room rates still lags. Riding on the back of improvement in the U.S. economy and the consequent rise in operating metrics, most of the hoteliers have started reporting positive quarterly results. Profits are expected to rise further in 2011 as bookings continue to improve. Positive estimate revisions give us ample evidence of this growth momentum. Since the U.S. market is somewhat saturated, hoteliers are exploring growth opportunities abroad. International markets offer greater potential based on the higher pace of economic growth that they currently enjoy. The U.S. based companies are ]]></description>

While gambling revenue in Atlantic City is down 8.7% from last year, the story couldn’t be more different in Macau.

		<description><![CDATA[With a gradual recovery of the global economy, the hotels and lodging industry is experiencing an increase in demand. The industry faced extremely tough challenges in the prior year due to the economic turmoil that resulted in weak labor and tight credit markets, resulting in lower discretionary spending. The recovery in the economy has seen a return of business travelers, with a rising demand for leisure. However, the rate of improvement in room rates still lags. Riding on the back of improvement in the U.S. economy and the consequent rise in operating metrics, most of the hoteliers have started reporting positive quarterly results and profits are expected to rise further in 2010, as bookings continue to ramp. We are seeing ample evidence of that in positive estimate revisions. Since the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Limited (WYNN), which along with its subsidiaries is a leading developer, owner and operator of destination casino resorts with properties in Las Vegas and Macau, announced recently that it has completed the renovation of the first resort room at Wynn Las Vegas. The renovation was a part of the company’s plan, under which it expects to remodel almost 2700 rooms at Wynn Las Vegas.  The remodeling became a necessity as it was almost five years since the company’s opening. Moreover, Wynn Resorts will also smarten up its baccarat game starting in October, so that it is ready for Christmas and New Year&#8217;s. The company plans to spend almost $99 million for this renewal. The entire project will be completed in April 2011. Wynn Resorts believes that through this ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have an Outperform rating on Wynn Resorts (WYNN) as the company&#8217;s second quarter 2010 earnings were well ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate. They were primarily driven by better-than-expected top-line growth and improvements in the bottom line. The company set record results in the Macau market. Additionally, with the global economy showing a gradual recovery, the company is experiencing an increase in demand. Its Las Vegas business, which was the worst hit at the time of slowdown, is also rebounding. We remain encouraged with the company&#8217;s strong brand name, healthy balance sheet, relatively low capital requirements and ability to execute in a difficult operating environment.

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Limited (WYNN) reported first quarter earnings of 26 cents, well ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 14 cents. The company had incurred a loss of 27 cents per share in the year-ago quarter. The results were driven by higher-than-expected growth in revenues. Net revenues were $908.9 million, up 22.8% year-over-year. The increase was driven by a solid performance of its Macau operations. Macau Operations Net revenues at Wynn Macau were $590.6 million, up 31.6% year-over-year, primarily driven by a significant increase in table games turnover in the VIP segment, which was $20.2 billion for the period, compared with $10.7 billion in the prior-year period.

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN) has abandoned its plan of a casino project construction in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Last Thursday, the company announced that it had terminated all agreements and negotiations related to its potential investment in the Foxwoods Casino project in Philadelphia. The project was slated for the Philadelphia waterfront. Though the legalization of table games in Pennsylvania had attracted Wynn Resorts, management said that the particular project was not suitable for the company. This particular project in Philadelphia has gone through too many problems, both political and financial, since its approval. However, Wynn Resorts remains right on track and is expected to open its second property, Encore at Wynn Macau, later this month. The company is completing the construction of this project, which is a further expansion of Wynn Macau. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, the Macau government announced its plan to limit casino growth in the region. According to the plan, new projects would not be approved while only 500 new gaming tables will be allowed in the next three years. The Macau government, which derives nearly 70% of its revenue from gaming, is seeking to diversify the city’s economy. Macau has become an attractive destination for the casino companies such as Las Vegas Sands Corp. (LVS), Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN) and MGM Mirage (MGM), who are investing billions for expansion on this island. Macau is the only Chinese city where gambling is legal and has survived the economic downturn relatively well. However, the unchecked expansion of the gambling business in Macau has encouraged corruption, addiction and prostitution in that area. Also, there ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Ltd.’s (WYNN) fourth quarter earnings of 8 cents per share missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 12 cents. The company had earned 7 cents per share in the year-ago quarter. For the quarter, net revenues were $809.3 million, up 31.7% from the prior-year period. The increase was driven by a solid performance of its Macau operations and a full-quarter contribution from its Encore property in Las Vegas. However, the economic environment is still pressurizing the performance of its Las Vegas operations. Additionally, the bottom line also deteriorated in the quarter. Including the impact of pre-opening costs, property charges and other non-cash non-operating income and expenses, the company has narrowed its loss. It reported a GAAP net loss of $5.2 million or 4 cents per share, compared to a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[MGM Mirage (MGM) is marching ahead with its Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO) plan. According to the South China Morning Post, the company is planning to raise approximately $1 billion through the listing of its Macau property. MGM Grand Macao, a joint venture between MGM Mirage and Pansy Ho, the daughter of Macau casino magnate Stanley Ho, is looking out for banks for this IPO. Macau has become an attractive destination for casino companies. MGM follows casino operators such as Las Vegas Sands (LVS) and Wynn Resorts (WYNN), both of whom have accomplished IPOs of their Macau properties in 2009 and are investing billions in expansion there. Wynn Resorts raised $1.63 billion in October last year through the Hong Kong listing of its Macao unit. In November, Las Vegas ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Las Vegas Sands’ (LVS) expansion projects are right on track. Sands’ Chief Executive Officer, Sheldon Adelson, expects to complete its Macau casino expansion projects within a period of 5 years. Its Singapore casino resort project should open by the end of March 2010. The $5.5 billion Singapore casino project was initially scheduled to open by the fourth quarter of 2009. However, due to the lack of sand (for concrete) and workers, the project was rescheduled for a March opening. The cost of this project exceeded the initial estimate of around $3.2 billion. Adelson, however, mentioned that if the Singapore project gets delayed, it would only be for a couple weeks &#8212; not months. Sands’ plan is to construct 5 properties on Macau’s Cotai strip. Of the 5 projects, two are ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Las Vegas Sands (LVS) has raised about $5 billion of capital through debt and equity financing to restart its Macau casino expansion projects that it had been compelled to close down last year due to financial constraints. Las Vegas Sands’ Macau unit, Sands China Ltd. was listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange after the completion of an initial public offering (IPO) early Monday. The company raised $3.1 billion from this offering. This included $2.5 billion from listing and $600 million raised in a pre-IPO exchangeable bond financing transaction completed in September. The company has also secured $1.75 billion in project financing. This together with $500 million in proceeds from the Sand China IPO will be used to restart and complete its 6,000-room casino project on the Cotai Strip in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Las Vegas Sands (LVS) Macau unit, Sand China raised $2.5 billion through its Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO). The company has priced the IPO for 1.87 billion shares at HK$10.38 per share, the low end of the expected HK$10.38-HK$13.88 range. The proceeds from this offering, combined with $1.75 billion in bank financing, would aid Sands China to restart its Macau&#8217;s Cotai Strip construction projects. Last year, the company was forced to halt its casino expansion projects in Macau due to financial constraints, at which time it laid off 11,000 workers. The IPO is being handled by five investment banks. Citigroup (C) and Goldman Sachs (GS) are the joint global coordinators for the offer while Barclays PLC (BCS), BNP Paribas SA and UBS AG (UBS) are the underwriters. Earlier, in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts Limited (WYNN) today reported third-quarter earnings of 28 cents per share. Adjusted earnings were 33 cents. The results are ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 14 cents. The company had earned 49 cents (adjusted earnings of 62 cents) in the year-ago quarter. Net revenues were $773.1 million compared to $769.2 million in the prior-year period. Results were driven by the opening of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas in Dec. 2008. However, due to a challenging economic environment, consumers continued to curb their gambling. Casino revenues in Las Vegas were flat year-over-year, while non-casino revenues increased 18% from the prior-year period, driven primarily by higher hotel and food and beverage revenues from Encore. Though hotel revenues were up as a result of the addition of 2,034 suites at ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Las Vegas Sands Corporation (LVS) is planning for a Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO) for its Macau assets next month. The company intends to raise up to $2.5 billion through the IPO. The offering is intended to complete in about four weeks after receiving regulatory approval for offering and listing. In September, Las Vegas announced the infusion of up to $600 million of capital through the sale of exchangeable bonds to strengthen up its balance sheet. The bonds will be compulsorily exchanged into common stock of its Macau unit after the unit&#8217;s pending IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Rival company Wynn Resorts (WYNN) held its IPO for its Macau assets earlier in October. Wynn Macau has experienced a strong debut in the Hong Kong stock exchange. Wynn ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Monday, Fitch Ratings raised its outlook for Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN) to positive from stable subsequent to the completion of the company’s Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO) for its Macau unit. The ratings also include an improved operating outlook following the relaxation of travel restrictions. Through the Hong Kong IPO, Wynn sold 1.25 billion shares or a 25% stake in its Macau business, which represented Hong Kong&#8217;s second-biggest haul of the year. Macau, a former Portuguese colony, is one of the world’s biggest gambling markets. Though the economic slowdown has negatively impacted the revenues of casino operators in the last few quarters, we note that Macau has been posting record revenues. Recently, visa restrictions had been lessened by Beijing to allow mainland tourists to visit Macau once a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The explosive growth of the casino industry in Macau may be threatened as the government of Macau ? the Chinese gambling Mecca ? is considering ways to impose restrictions on age, number of tables and locations of casinos. Yesterday, government officials of Macau met with six major casino operators including Las Vegas Sands (LVS) and Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN) and a casino jointly operated by MGM Mirage (MGM) and local businesswoman/tycoon Pansy Ho, concluding that limitless expansion of the Macau gambling sector may be harmful to the society. Significant expansion of the gambling business in Macau has encouraged corruption, addiction and prostitution in that area. The government is considering regulations like raising the entry age limit for casinos to 21 years from 18 years, limiting the number of tables per ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been no secret that we’ve been bullish on the casino sector for some time. From Doubling down on Casinos and Bank Pullback Exposes Casino Opportunities in April, there has been a lot of potential. Last week we asked if the casino sector had gotten too hot. And for many, the increase would suggest that. But as we discussed in “Are Casino Stocks a Gamble Right Now?,” just by looking at the prices from last year, we still have a ways to go. So far this month we’ve seen the big-three casino operators charge ahead. Wynn Resorts (Nasdaq: WYNN) added 29%; Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) added 30% and MGM Mirage (NYSE: MGM) charged ahead with a 53% gain. But there’s been another piece of important news that would suggest ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wynn Resorts (WYNN) is planning to raise up to $1.6 billion in its Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO) for its Macau unit, which represents an increase from $1.0 billion as previously intended. Wynn intends to offer 1.25 billion shares, representing 25% of the equity in the company&#8217;s Macau operations. The price range of the offer is HK$8.52–$10.08 per share or US $1.10–$1.30. JP Morgan (JPM), UBS AG (UBS) and Morgan Stanley have been chosen to handle this Hong Kong listing. Wynn Encore Macau, the company’s second resort in Macau, is scheduled to open in the first half of 2010. The company has budgeted around $650 million for the construction of this resort and so far has incurred about half of that construction cost. Las Vegas Sands (LVS), Wynn’s rival, ]]></description>

Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) and MGM Mirage (NYSE: MGM) have climbed up over 80% and 50% respectively. And that includes yesterday’s 7% drop. This morning both stocks started clawing back that loss. The real question is whether this can be sustained? Are they more of a gamble now that they’ve moved up so much? Jim Cramer doesn’t think so, in fact, he just increased his price targets for the stocks and their casino counterpart Wynn Resorts (NYSE: WYNN). The momentum behind the casino stocks doesn’t stop there. Options activity has been distinctively bullish, and the financial positions have been improving. It cannot be lost on investors that these companies are still almost 80% below last ]]></description>

Following Shariah law, the index excludes anything close to investing in “sin stocks” or firms that produce or market alcohol, tobacco, gambling, weapons, or pornography. Investors are further assured that the stocks held in the index have nothing to do with borrowing or lending, women’s fashions, cosmetics, modern cinema, popular music, or pork. Personally, I wouldn’t touch this fund with a barge pole. It is virtually guaranteed to earn sub-par returns.
