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.

<li>Just as we analyzed before, things get worse for PAGD. The loss expanded and gross margin declined. The gap between PAGD and its peers (JD Health, Alibaba Health) is widening. </li>
<li>PAGD’s Achilles' heel is its business model/profit model is untenable. The new HMO services system would not help turn things around because China's national condition is different from the US.</li>
<li>Being on the wrong track, PAGD’s financial performance is expected to further weaken. We are conservative about PAGD’s outlook. Any brief upwards movement is just dead cat bounce.</li>
