FBR Capital maintains an 'Outperform' on Gaylord Entertainment (NYSE: GET).
FBR analyst says, "Last Friday, we toured GET’s D.C. National Harbor Hotel and held meetings with David C. Kloeppel, President and Chief Operating Officer. The hotel continues to gain traction and has plans to add an additional 19,000 SF of waterfront function space. Additionally, further redevelopment of the area around the hotel (we heard of construction likely beginning on a new Tanger Outlet mall in the area sometime next year) would likely also help increase transient/weekend demand for the facility.
