Wells Fargo initiates coverage on MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) with a Market Perform rating. Valuation range $8-$12.

Wells analyst says, "We believe MGM is a Las Vegas Strip sentiment stock in the near term and as sentiment around Las Vegas Strip fundamentals improves, MGM shares should matriculate higher. Yet we see obstacles to a meaningful near-term recovery and we believe that a return to focus on company-specific fundamentals will curtail significant returns. Furthermore, we believe a Vegas recovery off current bottoms is already baked into shares at current levels. Finally, we view a full-fledged recovery in Strip fundamentals as being farther off than most of our peers."
