Shares of Wynn Resorts Ltd. soared more than 9% Wednesday, after founder and Chief Executive Steve Wynn stepped down from his role, succumbing to the pressure on the company and its stock following allegations of sexual misconduct against him. The Wall Street Journal reported last month that the casino magnate has a long history of pressuring his employees to perform sex acts. The Journal said it spoke to about 150 employees during its reporting, many of whom were worried that Wynn wields so much power in Las Vegas and in the casino business that he could hurt their chances of being employed elsewhere.
