Turnover from the company's high street stores jumped a colossal 243 per cent during the period, exceeding pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter thanks to strong demand for gaming and self-service betting terminals.

The government has been hesitant to close casinos due to its mandate to protect jobs.
The industry employs most of the population directly and indirectly and accounts for more than 80% of government revenues.

"Even if the outbreak in Macau gets under control, it will likely be another few weeks before Macau-Zhuhai can remove quarantine requirements," said Terry Ng, analyst at Daiwa Capital Markets in Hong Kong.

Hargreaves Lansdown equity analyst Matt Britzman said the company's BetMGM division 'has been a shining light' that is likely to benefit from expansion into more American states and additional gains in market share. 

Also starring Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy, Moon Knight streams on Disney Plus March 30. Speaking about the show to journalists at an online press conference Monday, Isaac described how he drew inspiration for his character's non-superhero personality from British comedy icons Peter Sellers (star of Dr. Strangelove, Casino Royale, Being There and the Pink Panther films) and Karl Pilkington. Yes, really.

Isaac describes the show as "a real opportunity to do something completely different, particularly in the MCU, to use Egyptian iconography and the superhero genre language to really focus on this internal struggle."

Part of the appeal of the role for the Star Wars and Dune star was to put a slightly different spin on Marvel's trademark quippy humor from wiseacres like Tony Stark and Peter Parker. "There was a chance to do a different type of comedy," said Isaac of his bumbling character, "with somebody that doesn't know they're being funny." 

Marvel is certainly getting value for its money from Oscar Isaac. New superhero show Moon Knight mixes Marvel's trademark cocktail of action and humor with spooky horror and intriguing Egyptian mythology, and Isaac embodies that mix of styles by playing multiple roles as a normal guy who discovers he's secretly a superhero -- whether he wants to be or not.

HONG KONG, July 11 (Reuters) - Macau shut all its casinos for the first time in more than two years on Monday as authorities struggle to contain the worst coronavirus outbreak yet in the world's biggest gambling hub.

'With an increasingly recreational customer base and relatively resilient revenue, we remain confident that our customer focus, diversification and proven ability to grow both organically and through M&A (mergers and acquisitions) will enable us to deliver further progress against our strategy.'

Yet as restrictions have loosened, the London-listed firm, whose brands also include Coral, Sportingbet and Bwin, has been hit by a slowdown in internet gambling as customers have returned to high street outlets and casinos.

In Queensland, Star owns and operates the Treasury Brisbane and The Star Gold Coast casinos, and is building a $3.6 billion Queen's Wharf resort development in Brisbane, which is expected to open in 2023.

He added: 'The underlying business looks to be progressing well, with the group finding a good balance between building out its online presence and offering an in-store option. The BetMGM project offers a real growth driver for the future if execution remains on point.'

When you take a larger look at the PlayStation library, there is a wide slate of shooters, open-world games and family-friendly platformers. But there's one PlayStation exclusive from 2019 that sits comfortably in the catalog as one of the strangest yet eerily prescient action games to grace the PS4, and that's Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding.

The show is set in London, and when Isaac asked why, he was apparently told Marvel had too many characters living in New York. Isaac wanted to follow that thought even though it meant departing from the comics: "What if we make him English?" Isaac suggested. "What if Peter Sellers was approached with a Marvel project?"

Its BetMGM joint venture has also forged tie-ups with Carnival Corporation to offer cruise ship gaming, and with Sony Pictures Television and slot machine producer IGT to launch a digital casino based on the television programme Wheel of Fortune.

Following the release of its second-quarter results,  fell by 10 per cent on Thursday morning before recovering slightly to end the day 3.8 per cent lower at 1,096.5p, making it the third-biggest faller on the FTSE 100 Index.  Despite the new outlook, chief executive Jette Nygaard-Andersen expressed optimism about the company's future, telling investors that 'the underlying performance of our business remains strong.
