STAR CM Holdings (6698 HK), a variety program intellectual property creator and operator, was listed last December and promptly gained 475% by early August. All good so far.
Shares cratered on the 18 August (-23.4%) and are currently 76% adrift from its recent high. The reason? A viral clip from late pop diva Coco Lee discussing unfair treatment.
The music competition show, in which Coco appeared, pushed back on any impropriety; however, its broadcaster has temporarily suspended the program. This is no easy fix.
