</table>There are 12 trading days to implementation of the changes and there are a lot of deletions that have over 1 day of ADV to trade. The impact on the inclusions is smaller but there will be a lot of active funds looking to buy the stocks so they don't deviate too much from their benchmark.With short selling limited to the constituents of the <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/korea-stock-exchange-kospi-200-index" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:26021:1" rel="noopener">Korea Stock Exchange Kospi 200 Index (KOSPI2 INDEX)</a>, shorting the inclusions will be tough while selling/shorting the deletions is a lot easier since they are current index constituents. The inclusions could outperform the deletions till a couple of days before implementation date, while there could be a high risk/reward reverse trade if the outperformance is significant.

Price performanceAll of the additions have had a decent rally as they move into the rebalancing date. Hyosung Advanced Materials had a bit of correction of late, though.The deletions have had mostly a strong performance on a year-to-date basis. But everyone had a downward correction in the recent days, probably due to the index rebalancing. Short interestI don't see a heavy short interest in any of the deletes yet. Namsun Aluminum has the highest short interest to float shares ratio at 3.33%, which is still 1.16 days to cover. But that doesn't mean that short-sellers aren't waiting on these deletes. Everyone carries a pretty heavy loan balance. As for Binggare, the loan balance is 8 times its 30-day average daily trade volume, leaving the most substantial room for new short positions.

In this report, we provide an analysis of our pair trade idea between <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/20712" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:20712:1">Hyosung Corporation (004800 KS)</a> (market cap of 1,612 billion won) and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/27749" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:27749:1">Hyosung TNC Co Ltd (298020 KS)</a> (market cap of 712 billion won). Our strategy will be to be long Hyosung TNC and be short Hyosung Corp. In the past six months, Hyosung Corp is up 62% while Hyosung TNC is down 12%. We believe this price divergence has been excessive. The four major reasons why Hyosung Corp's share price has surged in the past six months are mentioned below. There is a case to be made that the market has already factored into Hyosung Corp's share price many of the positive factors mentioned below. <ul>
<li>Excellent dividends </li>
<li>Corporate activism related stock </li>
<li>Strong financial results </li>
<li>Timing of the increased insider ownerships/Completion of tender offers</li>
</ul>Hyosung TNC has underperformed the market as well as Hyosung Corp in the past six months. However, Hyosung TNC appears to be a turnaround story driven by the following factors: <ul>

<li>Stabilization of spandex prices in 2H19 </li>
<li>Consolidation of the global spandex industry</li>
