Macau's GGR for September amounted to MOP18.3 billion, up 6% YoY, missing the expectations of the market and Morgan Stanley of 9%, primarily due to a typhoon that caused a 33-hour casino closure, according to Morgan Stanley's research report.

As for October, the broker expected Macau's GGR to grow 8% YoY, mainly benefiting from strong demand during the National Day Golden Week holiday, but also facing a higher base. A double-digit growth may be needed to boost share price performance.
