Las Vegas Sands profit falls on Asia high-end slowdown

The move

Las Vegas Sands reported Q3 2026 net revenue of $3.2 billion, down from $3.3 billion a year earlier, and net income of $352 million, down from $491 million. Adjusted EPS of 54 cents missed the 68-cent analyst estimate. The company still bought back $950 million of stock in the quarter. CEO Patrick Dumont said "the high end was softer in both of our markets this quarter, which negatively impacted our reported financial results."

Why it matters

It points to cooling VIP gambling demand in Singapore and Macau, the company's two main markets.

The bear case

Continuing a $950 million buyback despite the earnings miss suggests management sees the dip as temporary, not structural.

What to watch

Whether high-end demand recovers in Macau and Singapore next quarter.

Jensen HuangPolicyOtherNVDA · AAPLAI read · — Optics risk

Nvidia and Apple each gave $25 million to Trump's ballroom

The move

A Washington Post report, based on an internal fundraising spreadsheet, named Nvidia and Apple as the largest donors to the White House ballroom project at $25 million each. The Adelson Family Foundation and Dish Network co-founder Charlie Ergen matched that amount. Cisco gave $5 million. Donations tracked so far total more than $330 million toward a project the administration has said needs about $400 million; Trump himself was not listed as a donor.

Why it matters

It raises questions about the optics of companies with major federal contracts personally funding a presidential project, even though the reporting doesn't tie any donation to a specific government decision.

The bear case

Huang said Nvidia was contributing only 'in a small way,' and the report does not establish that any donor received favorable treatment in return.

What to watch

Whether other large federal contractors disclose similar gifts as the fundraising total nears its goal.
