Hang Lung (10 HK) is coming up "expensive" on my monitor, yet remains one of the cheapest property plays in Hong Kong on a P/B metric.
Preceding my comments on Hang Lung are the weekly setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.
These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity of US$1mn, and a % market capitalisation threshold - the $ value of the holding/opco held, over the parent’s market cap - &gt;20%.

This week in StubWorld ...



Both Dah Sing Financial (440 HK) and 74.4%-held Dah Sing Banking (2356 HK) enjoyed massive upward moves last Friday, and equally impressive downward moves earlier this week. And not a peep from either company on these unusual moves. 

Preceding my comments on Dah Sing are the weekly setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.


These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity threshold of US$1mn on a 90-day moving average, and a % market capitalisation threshold - the $ value of the holding/opco held, over the parent’s market capitalisation, expressed in percent - of at least 20%.
