Shares of the largest land-based casino operators have become more expensive

After the UK announced that the country was starting to vaccinate against coronavirus, the shares of many land-based casino operators rose significantly. Despite the fact that the vaccination campaign in Russia started earlier, this did not have a significant impact on the value of the assets of the largest gambling providers and operators. Apparently, because Western countries are in no hurry to buy the Russian vaccine.

To date, more than 65 million people have been diagnosed with COVID-19 worldwide. In the UK alone, there are already almost 2 million infected. At the same time, almost 60 thousand citizens of the country did not survive the new viral disease. The most vulnerable groups of the population will be vaccinated this week. The UK will use a vaccine created by the joint efforts of scientists from the UK, Germany and the USA.

According to the representative of the Ministry of Health M. Hancock, the first to be vaccinated will be elderly residents of the country living in nursing homes. This is currently the most vulnerable group, which is susceptible to infection first. It is absolutely certain that the first doses will be used in the first ten days of December. Vaccination begins after several months of careful research. Experts who participated in the verification and analysis of the new vaccine came to the conclusion that it fully complies with European standards of quality, effectiveness and safety.

This positive news has significantly increased the value of Wynn Resorts Limited shares. Now one share costs $105.13, which is almost $3% more than before the news. American operator MGM Resorts International has also increased its capitalization. Its shares have not grown as significantly, but still not bad - by almost $2%. Their value is now almost $30 per share. According to traders' expectations, other well-known companies have not stood aside either. Caesars Entertainment Incorporated shares have grown by $1.75%, and Las Vegas Sands Corporation - by $0.95%. The capitalization of smaller operators has also increased.

The Chinese subsidiary of MGM Resorts grew the most. The value of shares increased by more than 3%. Incidentally, the subsidiary of the global gambling giant, Sands China Limited, also became more expensive. Its shares rose to $4.30.
