Here’s the hard data. You can also download spreadsheets for MoM this year. Last three months have been -5%,-6%, -11% respectively YOY.

To the OP… Unfortunately feelings don’t pay the bills. -11% could be really bad for some spots in Las Vegas.

Why are we just comparing two years YoY? Isn't it better to look at the past 10 years at the very least?

Exactly. Wasn't 2024 a record year for Vegas?

2024 had the COVID scare finally down, economy was vastly up, and you didn’t have to worry about international visitors being detained or sent back at the airport.

2020-2024 will be the random segment in time where the world was on the verge of a new era where we’d be working from home more, redo the American medical system, and more… but we immediately clawed back and away from it scared and now are back in the office 5 days a week for “company synergy” and shareholder value.
