47、 describe September&October as thepeak season in property sales(the two months are dubbed as“Golden September SilverOctober”),it is worth considering what it really means for investors in general.During the past 4 years(2008-2011),for the 31 key developers that we keep track of,property sales during
48、 Sep-Oct accounted for 15-24%of their respective full-yearcontracted sales in general,which indicates that sales performance in the two monthsare important to developers.But again,with developers already achieving a high%oftheir full-year sales targets,they may not be that active on sales for the re
49、st of this year.So,we believe property sales in Oct are unlikely to show a significant pickup versusSept.Figure 3:Contracted sales of major developers(Rmb/HK$m),2008,2009,2010,2011,Company,Sep,Oct,Full-,Sept,Sep,Oct,Full-,Sept,Sep,Oct,Full-,Sept,Sep,Oct,Full-,Sept,year,&Oct/,year,&Oct/,year,&Oct/,ye
