** Rosenblatt Securities initiates coverage on SeaWorld
SEAS.N , Six Flags SIX.N , Live Nation LYV.N , Formula One

** Brokerage says "the boom can persist in parks, sports and
events" as consumers emerge from COVID-19 constraints
** Brokerage points to a secular swing towards services over
goods lifting the share of personal spending and suggesting that
a constructive inflection can continue
** "Live entertainment, spectator sports, and theme parks
appear to be generally trending towards a higher share of
personal consumption expenditures," brokerage says
** On fears of a hike in power prices, brokerage finds a
very limited relationship between gas prices and theme park
attendance after checking data for more than a decade
