HTC’s share value has risen 3% this Friday, as
rumors about a HTC-made smartwatch
appeared and also on account of some
Government officials visiting the company’s
HQ. First the shares grew 1.1% then they got
up to 3% during the trading hours.
This happens on a day when the Taiwanese
Stock Exchange closed down 57.46 points and a
bad day for stocks in general. Taipei Mayor Ko
Wen-je visited HTC the night before the stock
rise, being received by chairwoman Cher Wang
and the two talked about information and
communication technology for one hour. Then
the Premier Mao Chi-kuo also visited the HQ,
in order to experience the Vive VR headset.
The smartwatch rumors were still the ones to
make the shares climb the most, as sources
say that we may see an Android-based HTC
smartwatch debuting in February. HTC
unveiled Grip this year, a fitness band made
by HTC and Under Armour, that’s expected to
be released in 2016. HTC got some strong
earnings in November, after strong sales of
HTC One A9 and HTC Desire products.
The company’s consolidated revenues jumped
15% in November, although the first 11
months of the year brought a 33% drop from
the same time in 2014.
