MGM Mirage slimming down, speeding up

Phil Ruffin has already closed the deal on Treasure Island, but the big news now circulating has MGM Mirage selling off MGM Grand Detroit and the Beau Rivage Casino in Biloxi, Miss.
With $13.5 billion in debt, it’s the smartest move available. It doesn’t solve its CityCenter problems, but it’s a sign the company is moving away from panic mode.
