Bally's is trading 5.21% up at $11.11 after confirming on September 22, 2026, that construction of its $1.7 billion permanent Chicago casino remains on schedule for an early 2027 opening.
- Bally's disputed reports that work had stopped, saying construction continues daily with approximately 1,000 workers involved.
- The announcement is a company-specific positive catalyst; broader markets are only modestly higher, and the source does not explicitly attribute the move to the news.
