Despite the unsatisfactory macro situation, Macau reported best GGR performance for 4Q24 in 20 consecutive quarters, and the current valuation of the industry is low at about 9x of the average EBITDA, according to JPMorgan's research report.

Therefore, the broker was concerned about the investment opportunities of individual alpha, and continued to list GALAXY ENT (00027.HK) as its top pick, followed by MGM CHINA (02282.HK), believing that MGM CHINA's market share and EBITDA growth in 4Q24 can outperform its peers.
