HUNTINGTON STATION, NY. January 14, 2016 - Sharing an extremely comprehensive look at all aspects of the gaming sector and its ups and downs in 2015, Gaming USA Corp President and CEO Alan Woinski has released Vol. 22 of the Gaming Sector...Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow; The Successful Investor's Guide to the Gaming Industry.

"As we leave 2015 and head into 2016, the overall gaming industry's health seems different than what the gaming stocks have reflected," states Woinski. "The U.S. domestic casino market is in much better shape than in years past. The regional casino business has improved, not only because of an improving economy and lower gas prices, but also because new competition has slowed for the time being, allowing operational decisions which improve margins."

"As for gaming stocks, 2015 was a year to be a trader and not a long term holder."

The Report takes an in-depth look at equity market valuations and portfolio performance in 2015 and indicates projections for 2016. Specifically, Woinski features insights on Las Vegas Sands and MGM Resorts International, Boyd Gaming and Pinnacle Entertainment, Penn National Gaming, Isle of Capri Casinos, Scientific Games, IGT and more.

"I encourage all stakeholders in the gaming arena to take a careful look at this report," shares Keith Kefgen, CEO of AETHOS Consulting Group, the leading hospitality focused executive search and human capital advisory firm and strategic partner of Gaming USA Corp and its news wire services. "The Gaming Sector Report has the best track record of predicting trends in this industry."

"It was Alan's report which warned about Macau VIP gaming overheating, tables and labor issues, back in December 2013, which was four months before the sector peaked," states Kefgen. "Alan Woinski's commentary was bullish on regional gaming in last year's report and sure enough regional casino stocks were the best performing sub-sector of gaming in 2015. And a few years ago it was again Alan Woinski who called for mergers of slot and table game suppliers."

As for insights into controversial issues, The 2016 Gaming Sector....Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow extensively covers the Daily Fantasy Sports, Online Gaming and eSports businesses. "In my opinion, the amount of time and money that has been spent on the potential legalization, development, acquisition and research on online gaming, sports betting and daily fantasy sports is nothing short of ridiculous. Online gaming has been one of the biggest disappointments in gaming history with 2014 and 2015 revenues from the three legal states coming in at only 10% of what was projected for New Jersey alone."

Regarding Gaming stocks and thoughts for the new year Woinski expects a tale of two halves with negative sentiment on Macau and equipment companies in the first half and a brighter outlook in the back half while investors wait on regional markets to see if they can repeat last year's performance. Once again his thoughts on all issues covering the gaming industry is included in the 25 page Report.
