Investors may want to keep an eye on casino stocks, like MGM Resorts International (MGM). After dropping from a high of about $51 to about $38, it appears the MGM stock has bottomed out. Not only is the MGM stock holding triple bottom support dating back to July, it’s incredibly oversold on relative strength (RSI), […]
