Boyd Gaming
Boyd Gaming
Boyd Gaming was one of the few US-based gaming operators that saw their stock price rise on Thursday. The company's stock jumped 3.27%, closing the day at $9.15, and signaling hope for the future.

Back in late September, Boyd stock was approaching $12 a share, and appeared to be headed in the right direction. In the time since, the stock has dropped to the $9.15 at close Thursday. The stock has slightly increased so far in March.

Monarch Casino & Resort and Century Casinos were the other two gaming stocks that had positive days on the market. Monarch stock finished the day at $8.38, up 2.07%. Century just barely finished up, gaining $.01 per share.

As for some of the more well-known gaming stocks, Thursday brought not so good news. MGM Mirage slipped 2.85%, to $11.91. Wynn Resorts fell to $72.01, still clearly the most stable of all the gaming stocks in the US. Ameristar Casinos dropped to $17.05.

Las Vegas Sands' day was similar to MGM. Sands stock was down 2.82%, closing at $19.28. Sands has received good news for their Asian listing, which is being helped by the gaudy revenue numbers coming out of Macau casinos.
