According to an analyst at Sterne Agee &amp; Leach, David Bain, the gross gaming revenues across casinos in Macau could see a downfall of around 8% this month as against the last year. Bain stated that the visitors are expected to watch the World Cup series that started on June 12, rather them participating in casino activities. Jeff Papp, who is a senior analyst at Oberweis Asset Management Inc. also stated his thoughts in line with that of Bain&#8217;s. Papp stated that the casinos are likely to feel the pinch in their top-line numbers during the current quarter as customers will move away from casinos to stay back at home and watch the World Cup. Furthermore, Papp said that the casinos could face challenge over a short term due to the stringent regulations on VIP spenders by the Chinese government, but see the picture bright over a longer term as mass market growth looks promising.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>China\u2019s Regulations<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of late, the Chinese government has imposed several restrictions on high profile spenders. The authorities are making it hard for bettors to buy expensive products in exchange of cash they win, in order to limit the cash flow to the globe&#8217;s biggest gambling hub. Apart from this, the statement made by the head of SJM Holdings Ltd, that the government is mulling plans to curb the use of some of the debit cards at casinos also indicate the country&#8217;s tightening policies. Cameron McKnight from Wells Fargo &amp; Co. wrote that the year would be choppy for casinos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boston, MA 06\/17\/2014 (wallstreetpr) \u2013 The shares of Melco Crown Entertainment Ltd (ADR) (NASDAQ:MPEL) plunged by as much as 3% on Monday in New York [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":25942,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[2236],"tags":[6635,6436],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-25939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-melco-crown-entertainment-ltd-adr-nasdaqmpel","tag-nasdaqmpel","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
