Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but many enduring ones grow for years. Over the last five years, Caesars Entertainment grew its sales at a 26.5% compounded annual growth rate. Though this growth is acceptable on an absolute basis, we need to see more than just topline growth for the consumer discretionary sector, which can display significant earnings volatility. This means our bar for the sector is particularly high, reflecting the non-essential and hit-driven nature of the products and services offered. Additionally, five-year CAGR starts around Covid, when revenue was depressed then rebounded.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<figure data-testid=\"article-figure-image\" class=\"yf-1ems0tc\">\n<div class=\"image-container yf-lglytj loader\" style=\"--max-height: 540px;\">\n<div class=\"image-wrapper yf-lglytj\" style=\"--aspect-ratio: 960 \/ 540; --img-max-width: 960px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" alt=\"Caesars Entertainment Quarterly Revenue\" loading=\"lazy\" height=\"540\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj loader\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"yf-1ems0tc\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Caesars Entertainment Quarterly Revenue<!-- HTML_TAG_END -->  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within consumer discretionary, a stretched historical view may miss a company riding a successful new product or trend. Caesars Entertainment\u2019s recent performance shows its demand has slowed as its revenue was flat over the last two years. Note that COVID hurt Caesars Entertainment\u2019s business in 2020 and part of 2021, and it bounced back in a big way thereafter.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<figure data-testid=\"article-figure-image\" class=\"yf-1ems0tc\">\n<div class=\"image-container yf-lglytj loader\" style=\"--max-height: 540px;\">\n<div class=\"image-wrapper yf-lglytj\" style=\"--aspect-ratio: 960 \/ 540; --img-max-width: 960px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" alt=\"Caesars Entertainment Year-On-Year Revenue Growth\" loading=\"lazy\" height=\"540\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj loader\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"yf-1ems0tc\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Caesars Entertainment Year-On-Year Revenue Growth<!-- HTML_TAG_END -->  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->We can dig further into the company\u2019s revenue dynamics by analyzing its three most important segments: Casino, Hotel, and Dining, which are 58.7%, 14.2%, and 16.1% of revenue.
