Prada Shares Flat in Hong Kong Trading Debut(Oct 10, 2011)
Shares of Italian fashion house Prada SpA were nearly flat in their Hong Kong stock market debut Friday, amid lukewarm investor interest in the city's most glamorous IPO of the year.Prada shares gained as much as 50 cents, or 1.2 percent, to HK$40 in the first hour of trading but closed at $39.60, just 10 cents higher than the offering price.The stock was widely expected to tank on its debut because of slumping global markets and worries from Hong Kong investors that they would have to pay Italian taxes.

Hong Kong doesn't tax capital gains or dividends and it doesn't have a dual-taxation agreement with Italy.APPatrizio Bertelli, center, Prada's chief...
