As for a $10,000 accounting inflation...I am not sure what you are referring to. Regardless, $10,000 is an immaterial amount.

I appreciate your criticisms, however I lean to the bullish side because I am just that, Bullish on the company. ]]>

You speculate as to why the price per share of MPEL is so low, and can only come up with Visa restrictions, and a luckluster gaming sector. Could it have anything to do with the fact that MPEL recently reported a loss when a profit was expected? Or that analysts earnings estimates for the year have come down by over 60% from initial estimates?

What are you thoughts on management missteps since day 1? Are you aware that Q2 was improperly inflated by over $10,000usd, as the result of an accounting method being utilized?

If you write any future articles on any of your positions, I would reccomend doing a piece that is at least a little less one sided.]]>
Melco PBL Entertainment: The Crown of Macau http://seekingalpha.com/article/77537-melco-pbl-entertainment-the-crown-of-macau?source=feed#comment-213026 213026 Thu, 24 Jul 2008 06:47:19 -0400 This stock in my view has huge upside potential.... Chinese and gambling.... the company has the right ingredients to make money!

I am now set for the long term in MPEL (having exited my US casino stocks mid 2007) and am really looking forward to the ride up on this one.

Sooner or later investors will finally understand that this is a diamond worth taking a position on. ]]>

I think many retail investors have the feeling that the Macau story has been "played out", and has led to overvaluations in their multiples. This may be the case with a few of the gaming operators that may have taken on a bit more leverage than they can handle.

Over time the "good" money should come into this company's ownership structure as they begin to see the whole picture and future pipeline. Seems there are currently a lot of speculators trying to catch a huge earnings surprise and providing a lot of short-term volitility.

I plan to do a follow-up on Melco-PBL, specifically refrencing its valuation and a comparables valuation. ]]>
