@ Pinky, yes, US presidential election is a done deal.

Stock

2024-07-22 07:58 | Report Abuse

Trump told CNN on Sunday that he believed Harris would be easier to defeat.

A Trump win in the 2024 presidential election could have various implications, including:

Lower interest rates: This could result in a weaker dollar, which would be beneficial for exports.
Lower taxes: Potentially stimulating business growth and consumer spending.
Delay for TauRx: It might have to wait five more years for potential advancements or approvals.
Positive impact on Resorts World properties: Including Resorts World Las Vegas and Resorts World New York City, likely due to favorable business policies.

Historically, casino stocks have shown sensitivity to broader economic conditions, including interest rates, currency fluctuations, and investor sentiment.

Historical Context of Casino Stocks:

1) Economic Cycles: Casino stocks often perform well during periods of economic growth when discretionary spending increases. Conversely, they can struggle during economic downturns as consumers cut back on leisure activities.

Example: Extraordinary achievement in attaining 5.8% economic growth in Q2 2024.
👍👍👍👍👍
2) Interest Rates: Lower interest rates typically reduce borrowing costs, which can benefit casino companies that often carry significant debt. Additionally, lower rates can stimulate economic activity, leading to higher consumer spending, which is positive for the casino industry.

Example: The Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates in September 2024, which could help the casino industry by reducing borrowing costs and stimulating spending.
👍👍👍👍👍
3) Currency Fluctuations: A weaker US dollar can boost tourism as it makes travel to the US cheaper for international visitors, potentially increasing casino revenues.

Example: With the US Federal Reserve contemplating interest rate cuts in September 2024, the resulting depreciation of the US dollar is likely to reduce market uncertainty and restore investor confidence.
👍👍👍👍👍
4) Market Volatility: Reduced market uncertainty and lower volatility can enhance investor confidence, making stocks, including those in the casino industry, more attractive.

Example: The anticipated interest rate cuts and subsequent depreciation of the US dollar in September 2024 are expected to reduce market uncertainty and restore investor confidence.
👍👍👍👍👍

A new takeoff for Malaysia’s economic resurgence

Malaysia's economy is bouncing back, with various sectors showing signs of recovery. Genting Malaysia, a major player in tourism and entertainment, is a key contributor to this resurgence.

Despite the challenges of the global pandemic, Genting Malaysia has remained resilient. Analysts predict a net income of 867 million for the company in 2024. With 57 million earned in Q1, it's expected to bring in around 270 million per quarter for the rest of the year.

Genting Malaysia's resorts, casinos, and entertainment complexes are attracting more visitors as travel restrictions ease. The company's ongoing projects and innovations are set to further boost Malaysia’s economy.

In summary, Genting Malaysia is playing a crucial role in Malaysia’s economic recovery, particularly in the tourism and entertainment sectors.

However, as the world appears to have reached the peak of the inflation cycle, with the US Federal Reserve contemplating interest rate cuts in September 2024, the resulting depreciation of the US dollar is likely to reduce market uncertainty. This shift is expected to restore investor confidence, making casino stocks more attractive. The anticipated decrease in market volatility and improved financial outlook should encourage investors to buy into casino stocks once again.

In actual fact, it's the uncertainty surrounding inflation and the appreciation of the US dollar during efforts to combat inflation that has led investors to stay away from casino stocks. The US dollar's appreciation, driven by the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes, has created a challenging environment for international revenue conversion and increased market volatility.

For GenM, the improving economic environment could also be beneficial.. As the US dollar weakens, the financial impact of any losses from its US operations will be less severe when converted to MYR. This will improve GenM's overall financial performance and attract more investors. Additionally, reduced market uncertainty and renewed investor confidence in the casino sector could further enhance GenM's stock appeal. Go go.. GenM!

The uncertainty around inflation, high interest rates, and the strong US dollar have made investors wary of casino stocks. The strong dollar, due to the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes, has been tough on these stocks.

Now that inflation seems to have peaked and the Fed is considering cutting interest rates in Sept 2024, the US dollar is expected to weaken. This should reduce uncertainty and boost investor confidence, making casino stocks more appealing. A weaker dollar would benefit US based casinos with international revenue, likely leading investors to buy more casino stocks..

A stronger MYR relative to the USD can indeed help lessen the financial impact of losses from Genting's US operations when these losses are converted into MYR, thereby improving the overall financial performance of Genting Berhad and Genting Malaysia.

A simplistic or overly negative assessment of Genting's future performance based solely on the current struggles of US casino stocks might be misleading. Instead, a more detailed and careful analysis that considers various factors, such as currency exchange rates and specific market conditions, is necessary to fully understand Genting's potential..

Moving forward, it's important to consider the potential effects of a depreciating US dollar on these companies. If the US dollar weakens, it can be beneficial for US based casinos operating overseas, such as in Macau. Revenue from these operations, typically denominated in local currencies, will convert to a higher amount in USD, thus positively impacting the mother company's financials. This currency effect can enhance the overall profitability and financial stability of Wynn Resorts and Las Vegas Sands.

Recently, various stock analysts and "gurus" have been posting negative outlooks about Wynn Resorts and Las Vegas Sands. They often correlate the equity performance of these US based casino giants with Genting, suggesting that if the ang moh casino stocks are underperforming, Genting's performance is likely to be similarly impacted.

According to Maybank IB Research, the share price weakness was more likely due to foreign selling from the weaker ringgit compared to the US dollar.

The research house added that since inflation in the United States has tapered down, and the ringgit is likely to recover against the dollar backed by the prospect of the Federal Reserve cutting the interest rate, it hopes the foreign selling will decrease.

“Our FX Research Team forecasts the US dollar/ringgit to recover to 4.600 by end-2024, and 4.500 by mid-2025 from 4.718 as at June 30, 2024.
