Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Rick Munarriz]

    Multimedia Games (NASDAQ: MGAM  ) is a provider of casino games, growing at a healthier rate than its larger rivals. Another thing it does is make analysts look like perpetual underachievers. If analysts say that the company posted a profit of $0.24 a share in its latest quarter, I'll argue that it held up better than that. History's on my side!

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Tyler Crowe]

    This cheap feedstock has sent production up over one-third in the past five years, and has given a nice pad to chemical company earnings. LyondellBassell (NYSE: LYB  ) reported that 2012 was a record year in terms of earnings despite a 6% drop in revenue. These kinds of results have resulted in a mad rush to increase�capacity. The entire industry has plans to spend about $30 billion in new plants to take advantage of cheap feedstock. Dow personally is looking to invest $1.7 billion to build what would be the company's largest ethylene facility and would increase the company's ethylene capacity by 1.5 million tons per year. With so much invested in cheap natural gas, it should come as no surprise that the company will look to protect that position for as long as possible.�

  • [By Stock Maelstrom]

    International Games Technology (IGT) is the leading company in this industry. Its market capitalization of $4.6 billion is twice that of Bally Tech. International's fiscal 2013 ends September 30th, and by all indications it will be an excellent year, both in terms of comparisons with 2012 and historical references. For instance in its second quarter, the company's $600 million in revenue were up about 12% from the second quarter of fiscal 2012, and profits of $95 million, or $0.36 per share, were up 33% from the year ago. The stock market has rewarded three consecutive quarters of strong profit comparisons, bidding up shares by over 50% since September, 2012. The company also recently raised its dividend by 12.5%, paying a current yield of 1.8%. But most analysts see profit growth flattening off in fiscal 2014. I wonder if much of International Games' growth is actually behind it. For that reason, I do not like this otherwise impressive company as much as Bally Tech over the next two to three year period.

  • [By Rich Duprey]

    Casino gaming specialist�International Game Technology� (NYSE: IGT  ) �announced this morning�its second-quarter dividend of $0.09 per share, a 13% increase from the payout it made last quarter and a 50% hike over the one made a year ago.

  • [By Michael Flannelly]

    Analysts at Sterne Agee noted on Monday that International Game Technology’s (IGT) fiscal 2014 growth is stronger than it appears. As such, the analysts raised the price target on the casino gaming equipment manufacturer.

    The analysts maintain a “Buy” rating on IGT and now see shares reaching $25, up from the previous target of $23. This new price target suggests a 23% upside to the stock’s Friday closing price of $20.32.

    “Excluding FY13 Canadian VLT sales, which do not recur in FY14, consensus FY14 EPS growth is ~14% versus ‘in-print’ consensus EPS growth of ~4%,” Sterne Agee analyst David Bain said. “We believe IGT’s peer-low stock valuation is partly driven by a misinterpretation of forward growth using ‘in-print’ FY14 EPS projections.”

    Futhermore, the firm raised IGT’s fourth quarter EPS estimates from 33 cents to 34 cents.

    IGT shares were inactive during pre-market trading on Monday. The stock is up 43.4% year-to-date.

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By WALLSTCHEATSHEET.COM]

    AOL is dealing with death of dial-up the best that it can. It has made several key acquisitions to increase its Internet presence as it embarks on its return to relevance. However, its ad revenues pale in comparison to giants Google (NASDAQ:GOOG),�Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), and Yahoo�(NASDAQ:YHOO).

  • [By Roberto Pedone]

    AOL (AOL) is a global Web services company whose business consists of online content, products and services that it offers to consumers, publishers and advertisers. This stock closed up 1.4% to $36.69 in Wednesday's trading session.

    Wednesday's Volume: 4.52 million

    Three-Month Average Volume: 1.15 million

    Volume % Change: 285%

    From a technical perspective, AOL jumped modestly higher here back above its 50-day moving average of $36.29 with heavy upside volume. This move is quickly pushing shares of AOL within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit if AOL manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $38.48 to $40 with high volume.

    Traders should now look for long-biased trades in AOL as long as it's trending above its 50-day at $36.29 or above more support at $35 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 1.15 million shares. If that breakout hits soon, then AOL will set up to re-fill its previous gap down zone from May that started at $42.12. Any high-volume move above $42.12 will then give AOL a chance to tag $45 to $50.
