之前紛爭許久的喜達屋收購大戰，現在看來終於要塵埃落定了。隨着中國政府正式通過萬豪收購喜達屋案，合併的最後一塊拼圖終於被補全。兩家上司公司的股份將在23號開始前完成合併，正式成為一家上市公司！

Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR) and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE: HOT) today announced their merger transaction has received approval from the Chinese Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM). As this was the last regulatory approval required to complete the merger, Marriott and Starwood are now able to proceed with closing the transaction and expect the transaction to be completed before the market opens on September 23, pending satisfaction of customary closing requirements. Upon closing, Marriott will solidify its status as the world』s largest hotel company.
按照收購案計劃，喜達屋股份持者每股將獲得$21和0.8份萬豪股份，合併後萬豪將是世界上最大的酒店管理集團。
在等待合併期間也有一些大家感興趣的「謠傳」：
- Amex SPG 卡下一波大 offer 會在9月21來臨…（不出24小時就知道是不是真的了）
- Chase 會新發一張 SPG 聯名卡，之前說是今年底，後來又傳說到明年初…（我依舊不持樂觀態度）
至於大家最關心的會員計劃合併，目前沒有更多消息。大家靜靜等待萬豪進一步的聲明即可，而且在正式聲明前肯定有消息會偷跑的。大家暫時不必擔心 SPG 積分會瞬間貶值，抓緊時間擼一把是一把嘿嘿~
