11 weeks ago yesterday, for the end of 2020, I published my report 2021 High Conviction - Shinsei Bank idea. Since the close of the next day, the shares are up 46.7%. A large part of that performance has been due to the rise in the TOPIX Bank Index - up 26.7% in the same period. Much of that move has occurred in the past five weeks as The Great Rotation, driven by higher rates, a steeper curve, and inflationary expectations, has propelled last year's losers to this year's winners, and Tesla Motors (TSLA US), SaaS stocks, junk stocks, and others have underperformed. But there were a couple of other bits in the story too. A buyback, an asset sale, and understanding of the float dynamics given the over-arching goal of Shinsei Bank (8303 JP) and its shareholders is to be able to get the government out of its shares (and accompanying oversight) it purchased in March 2000. This insight provides a brief update to those inputs.
