As a rare Saturday post, here is a reference list of 77 of the largest listed casino, gambling, and gaming stocks on major exchanges as of January 2017.
Gambling and casinos are a classic 'sin sector' of 'vice stocks', where 'vice investing' is considered the opposite of 'ethical investing'. In an earlier post on my personal blog, I compare the performance of ethical vs vice stocks. I also had posts comparing the number of visitors to Macau to those visiting China or India, and how Macau once generated four times the revenue of Las Vegas with half the number of visitors.
- Company: Koch Industries. Nationality: American. Net worth: $50.5 billion (£39.2 billion) Forbes 2019 billionaire ranking: #11. Charles Koch is chairman of the board and CEO of Koch Industries, a position he has held since 1967. The success of the business is largely due to Koch's interest and commitment to scientific and social.
- LuckyFish Games is a social games company that develops unique and innovative social casino games for social networks and mobile devices. The application contains a variety of creative, colorful and user's friendly Fortune Games. The games are based on the mechanics of Scratch Cards, Wheel of Fortune, Slot Machines, Bingo, etc.
- World's Largest Social Casino Games Company Selects INAP. Bala Yogesh - May 30th, 2018. Internap Corporation (NASDAQ:INAP), a leading provider of high-performance data center services including.
In summary, this is not surprisingly an incredibly profitable sector that does not necessarily need economies of scale, but certainly depends on volume for high absolute profits. Return on assets for the sector are just over 10% with debt/equity ratios averaging over 1.0x, so not surprising to expect 10-20% returns from this sector if purchased at reasonable prices. Of course, the 33 largest casinos with market caps over $1 billion are probably less volatile than the 44 smaller ones, but this was one sector where the western superstitious number 77 had to be used because I just didn't have 88 listed casino stocks in my database:
The VanEck Vectors Gaming ETF (NYSEMKT:BJK) holds 40 stocks in the gambling industry, including not only the casino resort companies listed above, but also international internet gambling. Las Vegas Sands (USA) – $11.69 Billion. The home of gambling, so, of course, they are the biggest.
