Equity Bottom-Up

A few years ago, Bangchak decided to get a clean break from its former parent PTT ( <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/big-brother-season-premiere-empire-of-oil" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="insights:7511">Big Brother (Season Premiere): Empire of Oil</a>), and people were wondering if it would survive since it was part of Thailand's biggest oil group for decades.

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

-The oil majors' favourite refining hub in ASEAN is Singapore, while the crude-oil/gas comes mainly from Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei. Infusion of Saudi capital will help to partially redress that, although Saudi Arabia is only the 7th largest oil-refining country, and ARAMCO has moderate amounts of technological expertise (mainly from its ownership of S-Oil in Korea). -Malaysia and (especially) Indonesia have been wary of "Arabised" or Wahhabi Islam, and see Saudi offers to widen Arabic…

Gone With the Wind. We’ve always been bearish on the overall wind farm industry, and there are a few names in this renewable energy space, all of which are trading at insane multiples (EA, GUNKUL, DEMCO). EA, prior to moving from the small-cap bourse (MAI) to the main bourse (SET), actually accounted for half of the MAI, so what’s that about?! In early February, EA was investigated for planning to trespass on natural reserves in order to build their wind farm. In the convoluted manner of Thai…
