I'm by every sense of the word an amateur at investing. For the most part, investing is something I do on a simulator. My inexperience being noted, I try to make up for that with what seems to make sense to me.- This company is growing, and their… More

80+ PE? Uh... do their slots run on food stamps or something? Who thinks this is a growth business in a depression? Oh, right, CNBC says we'll recover in the latter half of 2009. Sorry, I forgot.

This casino operator has implemented an ill advised national expansion policy despite the fact that none of its casinos is profitable. The stock is up 3.24% as market euphoria spreads to the crappy stocks.

I like this casino company the best. They operate primarily in St. Louis and New Orleans, outside the cut throat competition of Las Vegas. Unlike Vegas, which relies on people traveling long distances and spending large amounts of money, both the St. Louis and New Orleans markets draw primarily from the local population base, and are performing quite well during the current downturn. Seriously, who wouldn't frequent the casino if it was a 20 min. drive? They are less leveraged than many of their Las Vegas comrades and are able to finish construction of their River City project, which is scheduled for completion this year, with cash on hand. They've shown prudent management by scrapping (at least temporarily) their plans for a mega resort in Atlantic City. Contrast that with other casino operators who have taken on crushing debt loads and virtually destroyed the company to build new projects (see MGM and CityCenter). This company will be a cash cow once its currently underway projects are completed.
