<li>The additional Lotte Confectionery/Samyang Holdings flow will come from K200/KRX 300 Consumer Staples, K200 MidSmallCap, and K200 Ex-Top. However, the actual flow impact wouldn't be significant.</li>

<li>For KOSDAQ 150, SillaJen and WCP made it to the index. As for deletions, Intron Biotechnology, Ebest I&amp;S, and Devsisters are additional names to leave the index through regular review.</li>
<li>Lotte Confectionery and Samyang Holdings do not have sizeable DTV. And they were fully expected. Nevertheless, the passive impact is so significant that the LONG/SHORT approach still seems valid.</li>
<li>We should focus on KOSDAQ 150 inclusions whose return has been high due to the inflow to secure a borrow pool for short-selling on top of the preemptive rebalancing flow.</li>
