<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/times-neighborhood-holdings" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:28666:1" rel="noopener">Times Neighborhood (9928 HK)</a> has corrected sharply over the last 6 months despite showing stellar results. We believe that the correction in the stock is due to: <ul>
<li>A small probability of the parent ( <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/times-china-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:8085:1" rel="noopener">Times China (1233 HK)</a> ) breaching the three red lines.</li>
<li>Tightening by the Chinese government in the property sector.</li>
<li>IPO fatigue in the sector. 2020 featured the listing of several property management companies that raised lots of cash, casting doubt on the companies ability to make acquisitions at good prices to fuel its future growth.</li>
<li>Pivot by the company from a more acquisitive to a third party strategy + expansion of community VAS services.</li>
