I see Las Vegas Sands (LVS) as a promising long-term investment due to their solid Q1 earnings, exceeding expectations with a 167.86% increase in adjusted earnings and strong performance in Macao and Singapore driven by ongoing travel recovery and tourism spending. The stock's current valuation amid mixed analyst ratings offers a potential value play for growth.

Given Las Vegas Sands has hit a 52-week low and analysts have lowered their price targets, I see the company's high debt and competitive pressures outweighing the recovery in tourism, making LVS a compelling candidate for a short position.
