Reason
Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove raised the firm's price target on MGM Resorts to $33 from $31 and keeps a Sell rating on the shares. The firm adjusted ratings and price targets in the gaming and lodging group as part of its 2026 outlook. Goldman expects a "mixed" 2026 for gaming and lodging, "with another year of the haves and have-nots." It finds it too early to call an inflection and take a positive view on gaming. In lodging, the analyst expects U.S. RevPAR growth to accelerate from 2025 with some help from the World Cup and stimulus.
