Why MGM Resorts International (MGM) Stock Fell 4.9% on Oct 23, 2026
What happened
MGM Resorts dropped 3.71% to $28.41 on October 23, driven by a combination of factors ahead of Q3 earnings (due October 28): softer leisure demand outlook and analyst price target cuts, including Morgan Stanley lowering its target to $29. The decline also reflects lingering pressure from Barry Diller's People Inc. withdrawing its $18 billion takeover bid earlier this month, which eliminated the deal premium and forced investors to reprice the stock on standalone fundamentals (Yahoo Finance). Volume was below average at 0.66x expected for this point in the session.
