A slew of bad news from weak China consumption, depreciating RMB to negative progress in an arbitration sent Meilan Airport stock down to below book value.
Yet when it comes to the fundamental of the company itself, we believe concerns are over-blown and very much priced in.
Meilan Airport is the most under-valued major airport in China airport space in our view. Patience will pay off.
