As designed, the JPX-Nikkei400 Index is something of a disaster. It aims to be slightly 'smart' vs other cap-weighted indices like TOPIX, but tracking error vs TOPIX is de minimus.
This year, in week 1, the ADD vs DELETE performance is positive. If we sector-hedge the ADDs vs DELETEs, it's doing even better.
This is probably due to relatively low pre-positioning, and cares. Momentum suggests one could be long ADDs vs DELETEs. And there is the perennial trade to watch out for.

Pan-Asia Index Rebalances/ Events/ Delta One

Periscope Analytics

Periscope Analytics focuses on event-driven trades across Asia Pacific and provides comprehensive, timely and systematic coverage of index changes to major Asia Pacific indices in a structured manner.

The analysis includes forecasted inclusions and exclusions to all major Asian indices that have significant amount of tracking assets, including estimates of passive buy/sell flow on the stocks. The service also provides commentary and impact of market consultations, ground rule changes, and other events (IPOs, spin-offs, M&A) that could lead to index changes and passive flow.

Periscope Analytics works with multi-strategy hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, stat arb trading groups and long-only investors that invest and trade in the Asia Pacific region with the data being used to trade index rebalances, avoid pre-positioning and passive flow, and to time entry into and exit from stocks.

JPX Nikkei 400 Index Rebalance: Better Late Than Never (32 Adds; 27 Deletes)

Equity Capital Markets

<p>Today after the close it was <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/10/06/2103999/0/en/Danone-intends-to-sell-its-stake-in-Yakult.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/danone-sa" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:21403:1" rel="noopener">Danone SA (BN FP)</a> - currently the largest shareholder in <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/yakult-honsha-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:17153:1" rel="noopener">Yakult Honsha (2267 JP)</a> - intended to sell down the last of its stake after a 20-year run.</p><p>The press release notes <em>"Danone's collaboration with Yakult began in 2004."</em></p><p>That's saying it nicely. Danone bought 5% in 2000 then bought up to 20% in the market in 2003 in an effort to get Yakult to collaborate. It was not done with Yakult's permission, but it got their attention.</p><div>
<p>Yakult and Danone signed an <em>Alliance Agreement</em> in March 2004. That agreement was renewed in 2008 so the agreement would stay in place until 2012. In 2012, negotiations on the future alliance were extended and extended and finally, in late April 2013 - after a year-plus of jawboning and speculation of a hostile bid, occasionally dampened by public promises to the contrary by Danone executives - the two companies decided they could not, in the end, agree, and they cancelled their <em>Strategic Alliance</em> and signed a <em>Memorandum of Understanding on a Collaborative Relationship</em>.</p>
<p>The lack of hostile action by Danone may have been the result of the fact that Yakult-friendly Japanese corporate investors bought shares in the meantime, lifting the share price by 60-70% in a year and lifting the friendly ownership to over 50%, making hostile action essentially futile. </p>
</div><div>
<p>That relationship basically stood as a standstill agreement with 3 Danone appointees named to the Yakult board, and ongoing JV operation in their 50/50 Vietnam and 80/20 (Yakult/Danone) Joint Ventures and ongoing 'collaboration' in the probiotics business. Since the big buy in 2003, including dividends, Danone was up 500% on its investment as of February 2018 when it decided to sell down a very large stake after activist Corvex Management had taken on Danone and urged it to reduce capital assets which didn't provide much. At the time, Yakult traded at 20x EV/EBITDA and 36x PER. </p>
<h2>The NEW News</h2>
<p>Danone is bailing on the rest of the stake while the existing commercial partnerships, "including joint-ventures in India and Vietnam remain in place" (according to the <a href="https://ml-eu.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/768c55f8-a7c0-4ba7-b4e8-9f01bf4bef68" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announcement</a>).</p>

<p>The weekly chart shows they did not catch the top last time (14 Feb 2018 announcement when the stock was ¥7940/share), but they enjoyed a nice run-up from a year prior. At the time, both TOPIX and TOPIX FOOD Sector indices had taken a sharp drop.</p>
<p>After the announcement the last time, the shares fell 6.8% on the next day. That time was a Public Offering which required a book building phase and then delivery saw a couple of weeks of large volume. The shares traded in line with market and sector before falling in April and May 2018. Since then, the shares have largely underperformed both TOPIX and the sector.</p>
<p>This deal is an Accelerated Block Offering. It makes things more interesting. Valuations are different than last time and the shareholder structure is different too. </p>
<p>Much more below the fold.</p>

Today after the close it was announced that Danone SA (BN FP) - currently the largest shareholder in Yakult Honsha (2267 JP) - intended to sell down the last of its stake after a 20-year run.The press release notes "Danone's collaboration with Yakult began in 2004."That's saying it nicely. Danone bought 5% in 2000 then bought up to 20% in the market in 2003 in an effort to get Yakult to collaborate. It was not done with Yakult's permission, but it got their attention.

Long-Short Analysis on Japan, Asia and the World

LightStream Research

LightStream conducts quantitatively rigorous and data-driven analysis with a focus on Japan and Asia.

We consistently cover the Tech, Consumer and Industrial sectors, and provide ECM and Events coverage more broadly.

We supplement traditional qualitative insights from company relationships with a robust quantitative foundation that examines as much historical data as is available.
We further refine the accuracy of our insights and calls through the use of alternative data to flesh out current trends, and through a valuation framework that emphasises non-superficial peer group selection and a proper attempt to understand the metrics and changes that have driven security valuations in the past.

<p><strong>DAILY RESULTS &amp; REVISIONS REVIEW</strong> - We resume our series of daily Insights reviewing the results and revisions released by Japanese companies in the last 24 hours. Our purpose is to provide brief commentary on notable changes in trends in earnings for individual companies as well as offering an early warning system on any sector and peer group trends. Where relevant, we shall also comment on valuation and relative price outliers using our proprietary models. Our coverage covers all listed companies until the number of reporting companies precludes it. Since our last 'R&amp;R' Insight covering 14th August, both our aggregate Results Score and Revision Score have continued to set new lows, the latter driven mostly by interim revisions. The companies currently reporting are mainly those with January, April, July, and October year-ends. Accordingly, the results reflect the period of greatest COVID-19 economic dislocation.</p>
