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.

Technical Analysis

After failing to break above resistance, global equities (MSCI ACWI) have had a rough start to the third quarter. Continued weakness in global manufacturing and the U.S.-EU tariff escalation raises the potential for a breakdown in global equities, however our outlook remains neutral as long as the MSCI ACWI remains confined to its horizontal range. In today's report we highlight attractive and actionable set-ups within technology, construction and engineering, and real estate.

🇯🇵 Japan • Fortnightly Update - "UnCh"

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

TATTERED - After rising 1.6% in four days at the start of the week before last, our Market Composite then fell by 3%, ended the period down 1.3% and only 1% above the one-year 'low' of March 23rd 2018.

TURNING POINT - Despite the last four trading days being 'up', the Japanese equity market composite fell by 0.6% over the last two weeks. New 52-week lows outnumbered new highs by 6.7:1 and new lows have exceeded new highs for the last sixteen days. This post-results 'malaise' is most noticeable in the lack of market activity.  Four of the last six trading days have seen the Value Traded/Total Market Value ratio fall below 30 basis points.  Other than at the turn of the year, such levels of trading 'apathy' (marked▲on the chart below) usually coincide with changes in market direction which, in current circumstances would suggest some upside from current levels.<figure class="editor-figure mceNonEditable"><img src="https://static-prod.smartkarma.com/images/media/000/061/735/original/2018-08-25_21-33-47.png?1535271873" class="editor-image img-responsive" data-smartkarma-image-id="61735"></figure><div class="content-caption">Source: Japan Analytics</div>SECTOR TRENDS - Only seven sectors rose by more than 1% in the last two weeks, led by Commercial Services, Multi-Industry, Media and Information Technology and only eight are up over three months. Overall the market composite has fallen by 2.9% since the end of May.  Twelve sectors have decreased by more than 1% since 10th August with Metals, Telecommunications, Autos and Consumer Services all down by more than 2%. Over both periods, and in all regards, the Energy sector is the outlier and remains attractively priced at below book value and on 8x TTM Net Income. RESULTS &amp; REVISIONS - Only 213 results and revision announcements occurred in the last two weeks, with <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/109" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:109:1">Idemitsu Kosan (5019 JP)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/4909" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:4909:1">Hikari Tsushin (9435 JP)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/14750" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:14750:1">Rizap (2928 JP)</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/24540" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:24540:1">SanBio (4592 JP)</a> <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/20495" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:20495:1">Amuse (4301 JP)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/19550" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:19550:1">Open House (3288 JP)</a> being the most impactful in terms of changes in scoring.PRICE SCORE &amp; VALUATION - Banks continue to be 'Oversold' and 'Deep Value', while Commercial and Consumer Services are both 'Overbought' and 'Fully Priced'.
