Technical Analysis

<li>Crown resorts displays a clear sell top zone near 13.00-50 that will induce a tactical rejection to short. On pullback we see a buying opportunity.</li>
<li>Rising price wedge is ultimately bearish. RSI bear divergence warns of a weakening rise (not confirming new price highs on weaker bull momentum).</li>
<li>Initial pullback support at 11. Higher conviction buy level at the 10 support where price and trend meet.</li>

Hochtief AG (HOT GR) has finally launched an unconditional offer for the rest of CIMIC Group Ltd (CIM AU) (where it already owns 78.58%).
As David Blennerhassett writes in Hochtief's Unconditional Offer For CIMIC, this should be a done deal. Completion would free up a place in the S&amp;P/ASX200.  
This looks to be one of the earlier Q2 intra-quarter changes, but there are technicalities.

Aventus Group (AVN AU) received the ATO tax ruling on 18 February. This creates some uncertainty around the timing of the HomeCo Daily Needs REIT inclusion in the ASX200 Index.
Given the 'latest available shares in issue' are used, we think there is a better than even chance of the stock being included in the index at the March rebalance.
If HomeCo Daily Needs REIT (HDN AU) is not included in March, then it could replace Crown Resorts in May. Else, the stock will be added at the June rebalance.
