Shell King probably 从良 after becoming TVB co-owner. That is an important catalyst.

Next announcement for Interim Results is probably due around Nov 27th.

Ya. Gimme special dividends.

Last month the company announced that its subsidiary Rosedale Hotels ( No. 01189.hk) has been approached by a party interested in the 29% stake held by ITC. But there has been only silence since the announcement .

Then last week, SCMP newspaper issue dated 17th Jan 2014, printed a report forecasting the number of tourists to Hong Kong could rise from 54 Mil last year to reach 70 million in 2017.

Today ITC share price suddenly rose from 52 cents to 54 cents for no reason. I just wonder if this is a positive signal for us small investors ?

No special dividends leh. Just a regular 1 cent interim div nia. Div paid out today.

Rosedale may be be sold as a RTO shell, similar to PYE (now known as Louis XIII).

Previously trying to RTO Legendary JV into PYE. But failed to raise enough money coz bad market. Legendary JV (Legendary USA + HuaYi Bros) is movie making venture for PRC. Maybe inject into Rosedale instead. 炒冷饭

What is RTO shell ?

Reverse takeover shell. See annc for Louis XIII for example.
