Note most of the TP's were NOT reduced substancially:
JP Morgan trims target prices of Macau gaming stocks over downward risk of revenue: 2014-06-06 12:05:29
According to the latest research report by JP Morgan, gaming revenue of Macau had only climbed 9% yearly in May, while VIP revenue had dropped 2% year-on-year. The bank believed the decline in VIP revenue was attributable to the tighter junket liquidity and weaker real property market in China.
Although growth momentum of the high-margin mass segment has sustained, JP Morgan expected downward risk in the annual gaming revenue. Gaming revenue growth forecast was trimmed from 17% to 13% year-on-year. For VIP segment, the growth forecast was lowered from 12% to 6%, while the growth forecast of mass segment was kept unchanged at 32%.
Target prices of Macau gaming stocks had been revised down broadly. Target price of:
SANDS CHINA LTD (01928.HK) -0.500 (0.912%) Short selling $93.19M; Ratio 13.217% was reduced from $73.3 to $72.8.
WYNN MACAU (01128.HK) -0.700 (2.201%) Short selling $66.36M; Ratio 33.832% was trimmed from $42.8 to $42.1.
MGM CHINA (02282.HK) -0.600 (2.260%) Short selling $29.41M; Ratio 20.090% was lowered from $38.5 to $37.8.
All of them were rated Overweight.
GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) -1.100 (1.855%) Short selling $52.67M; Ratio 8.514% , target price was reduced from $76 to $73.6, and shares were rated Neutral.

It's very disheartening to see that cancer begining to spread from the LVS onto the MPEL Yahoo Message Board. If it continues perhaps we can set up a MPEL board on this site.

UBS: More downgrades expected on Macau gaming stocks: 2014/09/03 10:11
UBS kept a Buy on Sands. China, WYNN is the only stock they raised the PT on
UBS said in its latest research report that the revenue trend of Macau Gaming continued to be disappointing and believed the market will cut further the estimate. Given a tougher base effect on Q4, near-term headline growth will remain difficult. However, UBS thought some stocks possess attractive medium-term value, and it preferred MGM CHINA (02282.HK) +0.200 (+0.808%) Short selling $8.85M; Ratio 9.411% , which offers a better discount than its peers. While near the end of the year, the market will see two casino openings as positives.
As regards UBS's Macau sector PT valuations:
SANDS CHINA LTD (01928.HK) -0.350 (-0.717%) Short selling $101.99M; Ratio 7.762% 's target price was down from $64.1 to $60.6, rated Buy;
MGM CHINA's target price was cut from $32.4 to $31.4, rated Buy;
SJM HOLDINGS (00880.HK) -0.040 (-0.211%) Short selling $43.18M; Ratio 35.431% was trimmed from $24.7 to $22.3, rated Buy.
GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) +0.250 (+0.438%) Short selling $208.79M; Ratio 24.994% 's target price was lowered from $64.6 to $63, rated Neutral, while
WYNN MACAU (01128.HK) -0.400 (-1.379%) Short selling $60.91M; Ratio 23.354% 's target price was raised from $30.8 to $31, rated Neutral. (Quote is delayed for at least 15 mins.Short Selling Data as at 2014-09-03 16:25.)

HSBC reduceds PT's of Macau stocks substantially as compared to other analysts 9/4/2014, keeps them all at Overweight.
HSBC was selectively bullish about the casino stocks, and its top picks were MGM CHINA, SANDS CHINA LTD and MELCO CROWN
According to the latest research report by HSBC, the followings are the latest ratings and target prices of casino stocks:
Stock Name / Rating / Target price (HK$)
GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) +0.150 (+0.262%) Short selling $111.22M; Ratio 18.337% : Overweight; $67 (down from $72)
MELCO INT'L DEV (00200.HK) +0.140 (+0.719%) Short selling $12.85M; Ratio 8.630% : Overweight; $25 (down from $37.3)
MGM CHINA (02282.HK) +0.150 (+0.601%) Short selling $12.57M; Ratio 12.173% : Overweight; $33.7 (down from $39.5)
SANDS CHINA LTD (01928.HK) +0.250 (+0.516%) Short selling $14.50M; Ratio 1.573% : Overweight; $59.2 (down from $70.7)

According to the latest research report by HSBC, the mass gaming business of casinos in Macau had grown 17% yearly in July, yet the growth rate was 27% in June. The bank believed the slower growth was attributable to the anti-corruption campaign, thus the scenario is unlikely to further deteriorate.
The bank trimmed the 2014 and 2015 industrial growth estimates to 3% and 6% respectively.

BofA ML cuts Macau 2014 gaming revenue forecast to zero growth: 9/17/2014 Bank of America Merrill Lynch, in the latest research report, slashed its 2014 forecast for Macau's gaming revenue growth from 5.6% to 0.3% as the smaller junkets are still facing difficulties in accessing capital and the impacts arising from anti-corruption. The VIP revenue performance is expected to be disappointing. The Bank believed even though the above factors have limited negative effect on the long term structural demand, it takes time to change the conditions. The 2014 forecast for VIP growth was cut further to -10.1% from -3.2%, and 2H2014 forecast to -23% from -9%. Bof AML offered a positive long-term outlook on Macau gaming stocks as the sector has become very attractive in terms of cash flow and dividend yield. The pecking order is: GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) -1.100 (-2.174%) Short selling $161.41M; Ratio 21.940% , SANDS CHINA LTD (01928.HK) -1.600 (-3.620%) Short selling $137.08M; Ratio 11.447% , WYNN MACAU (01128.HK) -0.600 (-2.367%) Short selling $61.91M; Ratio 34.440% , MPEL, MGM CHINA (02282.HK) -1.150 (-4.957%) Short selling $35.28M; Ratio 36.664% and SJM HOLDINGS (00880.HK) -0.860 (-4.948%) Short selling $27.54M; Ratio 25.373% ; and The target prices are set at $76.5, Galaxy $59.6, Sands China $38.1, WYNN $33.1 Mpel and $22.8, SJM correspondingly. BofA ML remained GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) as the top preference on its high growth thanks to the opening of phase 2 next year, and its outperformed VIP segment. www.aastocks.com/en/stocks/news/aafn-news/NOW.628288/1

Credit Suisse Downs Macau, Says “Recovery May Take Time” By Shuli Ren. , September 17, 2014, 2:44 A.M. ET blogs.barrons.com/asiastocks/2014/09/17/credit-suisse-downs-macau-says-recovery-may-take-time/?mod=yahoobarrons&ru=yahooAnalysts race to lower their 2014 revenue growth estimates this week, as this month’s gross gaming revenue from Macau comes out tepid. Credit Suisse analysts Kenneth Fong and Isis Wong “cut [their] revenue forecast for 2014/15 from 5%/11% to 1%/8%, and lower [their] target prices by 10-25% across the sector” today, as Hong Kong listed Macau stocks continue their bloodbath. By mid-day, MGM China (2282.HK), a subsidiary of MGM Resorts (MGM), slumped 5.2%. SJM Holdings (0880.HK) fell 5.6%. Sands China (1928.HK), owned by Las Vegas Sands (LVS), dipped 5.1%. Wynn Macau (1128.HK), part of Wynn Resorts (WYNN), retreated 3.2%. Galaxy Entertainment (0027.HK) was down 2.9%. In particular, Credit Suisse downgraded Galaxy Entertainment and Wynn Macau from Buy to Neutral. ** Sands China’s price target was cut by 13.5% to 57.1 Hong Kong dollars. MGM China was cut to 30 Hong Kong dollars. The question on everyone’s mind is: why is Macau slowing down so quickly? After a fact-finding trip, Credit Suisse concluded no one knew: In the last few weeks, we took time to survey and interview Macau market participants from all walks of life. From front line agents to marketing hosts, from junkets to casino management, no one seemed to have a clear grasp of why we saw a sharp slowdown in mass growth from June into July. But they all sounded cautious about the future. Chinese President Xi Jinping‘s anti-corruption campaign has taken its toll, people say. Now Credit Suisse is worried that “the junkets are increasingly bringing players to other overseas destinations to avoid frequent appearance in Macau in light of the current sensitive political situation. Gaming destinations including Philippines, Australia and Las Vegas had demonstrated strong VIP trend in 2Q14.” Macau, after all, is part of China, and Beijing can track people’s spending there quite easily. Credit Suisse concluded: “We believe that only the anti-corruption efforts could leave a permanent dent on demand in Macau, the rest are only temporary in nature. Gamblers would likely have found alternatives to work around the visa restrictions in a few months’ time and junkets would also have found solutions to replenish their cash. The good news is that it is only a temporary suppression of demand rather than a structural slowdown, but the bad news is that it will take a few months for revenue to recover as players get around the rules and operators find new players to replenish demand.”
