      <description>For Steven Zhou, a 40-year-old Beijing office worker, suburban outlet stores offer a better shopping experience than urban malls, allowing him to escape the city, park his car without frustration and, most importantly, find good deals.
“Outlets offer a wide selection of brands, with attractive discounts, especially on sportswear,” Zhou said.
Across the mainland, outlets are expanding while traditional and luxury malls face high vacancy rates. Offering well-known brands at discounted prices,...</description>

Profit for the first nine months amounted to HK$858 million, down 55.7 per cent year on year.

      <description>I am grateful to the reader who drew my attention to the letter in Monday's edition of the South China Morning Post headed "HK's economy benefits from beef monopoly".
The letter defended Hong Kong's monopoly importer of mainland beef cattle, Ng Fung Hong, a subsidiary of China Resources Enterprise.

The writer rejected calls for Ng Fung Hong's monopoly to be scrapped, arguing that its privileged status is not to blame for the recent rise in beef prices.
Beef prices are going up, he declared,...</description>

      <description>Slower economic growth and rainy weather have taken a toll on China Resources Enterprise, with earnings at its beer unit falling in the third quarter and retailing profits slipping in the first nine months of the year.
Net profit rose 33 per cent year on year to HK$3.37 billion in the nine months ended September, buoyed by disposal gains and property revaluation.
Stripping the exceptional gains from revaluation and disposal of non-core asset, the underlying profit dropped 4.8 per cent to HK$1.80...</description>

      <description>From time to time we are invited to diplomatic cocktail parties, usually to celebrate national day or the sovereign's birthday. These are usually polite convivial occasions which include diplomats, government officials, prominent nationals, and a sprinkling of local business people and minor tycoons. While generally agreeable, they don't stand out as must-go-to events.
However, there is one of these functions coming up shortly, which may be more interesting than your average diplomatic party....</description>

      <description>Companies  sitting on too much cash may not be a good thing. That is because it opens the possibility for controlling shareholders to find  uses for the money other than the straightforward solution of returning it to equity investors. 
Two examples, China Mobile and the China Resources Group, could perhaps be used to illustrate this potential risk. 
China Mobile announced on August 12 that it would invest 4.6 billion yuan (HK$5.6 billion) for a 92 per cent stake in China Mobile Finance (CMF),...</description>
