Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>There are three major reasons we like a pair trade between Doosan Corp (go long) and Doosan Enerbility (go short). </li>
<li>First, share prices of two companies have diverged too much this year. Second, Doosan Corp is currently trading at a 76% discount to its NAV, which is excessive. </li>
<li>Third, as investors have poured capital into nuclear power themed Doosan Enerbility, they have neglected its parent Doosan Corp. </li>
