Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Could you please give your view on how to differentiate the advantages (licencing, moats, etc.) of the multitude of sports betting companies now in operation? It seems that the non-listed organizations like the BCLC affiliated PlayNow have ramped up smartly in recent times, especially since the availability of single game wagering came into existence locally. It seems like the BCLC are well-equipped and well-established at this point to grow and compete with any existing or prospective challengers in all aspects of gambling, including internet opportunities.
Thank you.
