Core Viewpoint - Morgan Stanley expresses concerns about the profit pressure from promotional activities in Macau casinos, despite hopes for a strong performance during the Lunar New Year. The overall gaming revenue in Macau is performing better than other Chinese consumer stocks, with continuous growth in cash flow and dividends making gaming stocks attractive [1]. Group 1: Industry Performance - Macau's gaming revenue is expected to show low single-digit growth year-on-year for the current month, with a projected 13% year-on-year growth for the first two months of the year [1]. - Visitor numbers to Macau are increasing significantly; however, there is a decline in per capita spending, and there are bottlenecks in hotel room supply [1]. - The average age of gamblers is decreasing over time, indicating a shift in the demographic profile of casino visitors [1]. Group 2: Company Preferences - Morgan Stanley favors Galaxy Entertainment (00027) as a representative of the industry and Sands China (01928) for its high dividends [1]. - Wynn Macau (01128) and Melco Resorts (MLCO.US) are considered undervalued, while SJM Holdings (00880) may experience significant EBITDA fluctuations by 2026 [1].
