Las Vegas Sands price target raised to $80 from $72 at Stifel
Stifel analyst Steven Wieczynski raised his price target on Las Vegas Sands to $80 from $72, stating that the company "delivered another solid quarter" with "exceptional mass market gaming performance" in Macau and Singapore. However, while he expects shares to trade "modestly higher" following earnings, he does not see anything within the results or management's commentary capable of triggering a fundamental shift in the currently "decidedly mixed" sentiment on the stock. Wieczynski, who encourages investors to "look beyond the short-term noise," keeps a Buy rating on Las Vegas Sands shares.
