A group of Citadel analysts revised investment ratings on a number of Casino & Gaming stocks late Monday afternoon following last week's G2E Asia Gaming Conference in Macau and a recent sell-off in Asian gaming stocks.

After attending the Conference and then spending seven days/nights visiting different properties in Macau, the analysts said they "came away with a sense that there will be no meaningful near-term competitive threats to the Macau and Singapore markets..."

Citadel boosted its investment ratings on MGM (NYSE: MGM), Wynn Resorts (Nasdaq: WYNN) and Wynn Macau from Neutral to Add. The firm also reiterated an Add on shares of Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) and its top pick Sands China at Edge Positive.

The firm maintains a $16 price target on MGM, a $150 target on Wynn and a $50 target on shares of Las Vegas Sands.
