Thematic (Sector/Industry)

Returns in emerging market wireless telecoms have bottomed as the sector takes a capex holiday after the 4G roll-out. We continue to like low-return markets where we look for returns to rise (e.g. India, Indonesia, China are prime examples). We have also become more bullish where returns are high and stable (e.g. Hong Kong). A number of markets continue to face tough conditions typically due to rising spectrum payments (e.g. Malaysia and Thailand).Higher returns imply higher cash flows and that is good news for both debt reduction and rising dividends. it also may encourage more M&amp;A, an area we think makes sense for in market consolidation and fixed/wireless convergence.In terms of stocks, we favor names such as <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/953" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:953:1">Bharti Airtel (BHARTI IN)</a> , <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/1016" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:1016:1">China Unicom (762 HK)</a>, Telefonica Brasil, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/15028" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:15028:1">XL Axiata (EXCL IJ)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/873" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:873:1">PCCW (8 HK)</a>. Top shorts include <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/946" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:946:1">Maxis (MAXIS MK)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/947" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:947:1">AIS (ADVANC TB)</a> .
