Shares of Wynn Resorts LTD gained about 4 percent early Monday, which was attributed to an impressive gambling revenue report out of Macau.

The Macau Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau said the gaming market generated revenues of about $2.4 billion, or 18.9 billion Patacas.
Wynn Resorts operates Wynn Macau within the territory. Shares of Wynn Reorts rose $4.11, or 3.96 percent, to $107.95 in early trading on the Nasdaq.
