<ul>
<li>Deutsche Börse will offer for DKK 735/share for financial software developer SimCorp, 38.9% premium, 6.5x EV/Fwd Sales (in line with other transactions), and 30.3x EV/Fwd EBIT. </li>
<li>DB offers a full price to grow in data&amp;analytics: my EV/EBIT-based standalone fair value is DKK 629/share, plus (all) synergies taxed and capitalised of DKK 87/share results in DKK 716/share.</li>
<li>That figure is still below the offer price, and although gross spread is 0.48%, I'd be long in case of a possible bid by private equity.</li>

Technical Analyst

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

We continue to be encouraged by market dynamics that are supportive of an ongoing equity bull market. Additionally, there continues to be an absence of breakdowns on the major global indexes (MSCI ACWI, ACWI ex-US, EM, &amp; EAFE). As a result, our outlook remains bullish.  In this report we show some love to various Sectors that have not been big attention-grabbers for us in recent months, but still have plenty of attractive stocks. The stocks highlighted hail from a variety of countries. Sectors covered include Services, Communications, Staples, Financials, and Utilities.
