Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

This is a very good target price to short. In the UK sale, they didn't get squat and they would be hard pressed to pull off as good of deals on thier losing properties in the U.S.





They can continue to try to prop up the stock (the Goldstiens), but that isn't going to work fo...More

This stock may just trade sideways and then down. I know I was pretty hard on them when Bernie was still alive, but since he's been gone, they've gone further downhill.





Live entertainment at any of their proprties is very poor. Mostly unkown entertainers or so old they've been forgotten about.





At some locations, they pull out the Faradays and replace them with an Otis and Henrys restaurant. The only thing that was wrong that people didn't like was the poor service. Instaed they thought what people wanted was a downscaled restaurant. So now they have a downscaled restaurant and the service is about the same. Prices really are about the same. They wasted a lot of money remodeling and ended up with something less desirable. You can't even get a bottle of Heiniken in the restaurant, but they have it in the Casino.





At their Waterloo Iowa loaction, the guest rooms have such an echo effect from the way they are constructed, two people in a conversation can easily be heard by guests in the next room and they get noise complaints, even from the rooms that are suites.





Any top prizes for any of their tournaments is such a small amount of money, that even if a person were to win it, it''s nothing.





For the most part, all of their casinos are like, to coin and old phrase, "death warmed over".





This is not rocket sciense but it ceratinly is bad management. Is it any wonder why their stock is where it is today?

consumer deleveraging will continue to affect stocks that rely on discretionary spending. ISLE is over 500% off the March lows, with no revenue growth.

Debt at seven times market cap. The economy will recover, but liquidating casinos to cover debt will impair long term growth.

They can continue to try to prop up the stock (the Goldstiens), but that isn't going to work forever...well it can work until they're broke!


I hope they keep trying until they are!





Look for them to try to sell off more within the next quarter or so, but that may not be possible. There may not be any buyers. Owning gaming stock in these times? Not a good thing. What's funny is, this stock would be right where it is today regardless of the economy. That's what you really have to keep in mind.





This stock will go back and take out the low, probably before they are bankrupt. To me, it's what comes around, goes around. You do not want to own this stock.





The bottom line is, they have done it to themselves. You can only run a business model as "all take and no give" for so long. Even thier patrons have caught on. It's a worthless stock, they have worthless properties laughingly referred to as Casinos and any glitter is all but gone. Totally WORTHLESS!
