Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Since the domestic revenue scale of PD-1 has been much lower-than-expected, the market seems no longer willing to offer GLP-1 weight loss drug high expectations. However, that's not right. </li>
<li>For China healthcare, the emergence of negative domestic policies is a time for reassessment and seeking opportunities, rather than a time of blind pessimism.</li>
<li>Issuing convertible bonds is clearly a bad decision for Microport, which chose to sacrifice the interests of minority shareholders. Together with weak fundamentals/cashflow pressure, the management needs to take responsibility.</li>

Event-Driven Trades Across Asia Pacific

Event-Driven

<ul>
<li>The index committee has used a 6-month minimum listing history and that results in two changes. This is the first rebalance with less than 5 changes at a review.</li>
<li>One way turnover is estimated at 1.03% and will result in a one-way trade of CNY 1,025m. Given the adds are new listings, there will be some reverse funding flow.</li>
<li>There appears to be little pre-positioning on the adds while there is a bigger buildup on the deletes.</li>

Acotec Scientific Holdings / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>With the launch of new products and their accelerated admission to hospitals, Acotec's revenue streams become more diversified, which would enhance its own risk resistance ability and core competitiveness.</li>
<li>Considering market size/increasing competition, Acotec’s growth ceiling is obvious if relies solely on domestic market. It becomes crucial whether Boston Scientific's acquisition would bring expected value or have other intentions.</li>
<li>How much room for improvement in future valuation depends on Acotec's performance in overseas markets. After all, if there is no internationalization breakthrough, Acotec's valuation logic would not be reshaped.</li>
