Hang Lung (10 HK)'s is coming up expensive on my monitor,  yet at 0.3x P/B, against 0.47x for a basket of peers, HLG is one of the cheapest property plays in Hong Kong.

Preceding my comments on Hang Lung are the weekly setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.



These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity threshold of US$1mn on a 90-day moving average, and a % market capitalisation threshold - the $ value of the holding/opco held, over the parent’s market capitalisation, expressed in percent - of at least 20%.
