Default How did the gaming stocks fair today?

Russ I do not think a bill being approved in commitee is that big a deal-

in fact I do not consider what the House does to be that big a deal regardless-

if there is any hint of any of this passing the senate you will see some bloodshed in these stocks.

I think they are over valued to begin with-SBT worth billions of dollars only returned $40mill to investors last year. WOuld you pay 4-5billion for anything that only returned you $40mill? I woudn't.

But I still have yet to find a way to trade these issues directly-I asked numerous brokers and no one knows, one guy even told me many international exchanges have limitations on foreigners owning stock.
