TheFly reported on March 26 that Morgan Stanley revised its outlook for MLCO, lowering the price target from $8.50 to $6.30 while retaining an Overweight rating. The firm also adjusted its industry view on Macau gaming from Attractive to In-Line. Although Macau\u2019s gross gaming revenue is projected to grow faster than Singapore and Las Vegas in 2026, the bank expects MLCO and other Macau stocks to underperform in the near term due to anticipated corporate EBITDA growth of only 2%, below consensus estimates and weaker than 2025. The firm forecasts overall Macau 2026 GGR growth of 6% alongside the limited EBITDA expansion.<\/p>\n
