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.

<ul>
<li>China’s NPPA issued a list of 67 new games approved for July 2022, and once again, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/tencent-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:26:1" rel="noopener">Tencent (700 HK)</a>  and its smaller rival NetEase were excluded from the list.</li>
<li>The nine-month long freeze on new game approval was lifted in April, however, none of Tencent’s new games were included in the approved lists in April, June and July.</li>
<li>This further affirms our view that the anti-monopoly crackdown on tech firms hasn’t slowed down, but regulators are probing on dominant players such as Tencent to level the playing field.</li>
