wich casino sank in Buloxi?

[MrDannimal]

Cramer has always disclosed if he held a position in a stock when discussins it on-air. All the way back to the pre-bubble days when he would co-host Squawk Box. There was a stink made by a small company he mentioned negatively on the show that resulted in him not being allowed on the show for a while during an investigation. Nothing came of it (the claim that he was short the stock when he bashed it).

you sir need to do some more research!

cramer openly admits to all kinds of borderline fraudulent activities in many of his books.

assuming that the barge is completely destroyed, i would think it is a high probability that the new poker room will be even bigger & better after they rebuild. the rebuild will be as quick as possible i am sure. this loss of revenue will devistate MS. i have heard the loss of revenue at 500k per day just for the taxes.

i wish the missing and hurt people the very best. i wish the state a speedy rebuild.

I wonder if when they start to rebuild the casinos the state would consider changing the legislation about having them built on barges. Even to someone uneducated on the matter it does not make sense to build casinos on barges that should survive hurricanes. Obviously I know not all hurricanes are this big, but you have to plan ahead just in case.

They just showed the "C[o]pa"? Casino on CNN and supposedly it moved a half mile.

From Harrah's web site:

[ QUOTE ]

To ensure the safety of team members and customers, Harrah's New Orleans, Grand Casino Biloxi and Grand Casino Gulfport are now closed. We will reopen as soon as it is safe. At this time, we anticipate Harrah's New Orleans will open no sooner than Friday, September 30, 2005. Our Grand Casino locations, however, are closed indefinitely.

It won't surprise me if it is at least six months before casinos reopen in Biloxi. And in light of the levee break in NO, can't see Harrah's reopening there in a month.

Harrah's is definately going to have to spend some big bucks in this disaster.

At least they, unlike a whole bunch of other businesses and individuals, have it to spend. It's gonna be a chunk of cash tho, even considering what Harrah's is worth.

If there was ever a time for Mississippi to change the law requiring the "boats" to be on water, the time is now. Surely they will allow them to go land based in the rebuild.

Edit....just read on CNN that all the casinos have been destroyed.

With the amount of money MS is losing everyday, I think they will most likely wave the water based casinos legislation.

I'm sure Harrah's is insured to the hilt. I agree it's the employees and others who need our support and prayers.

As for sunken casinos, on a list of 1,000 serious concerns about the areas affected by this disaster, casino damage ranks 1001.

Actually this couldn't be further from the truth. Loss of lives, loss of homes, loss of JOBS. The jobs help people rebuild all that they have lost personally.
