Through investigative due diligence including channel surveys and interviews, our research helps clients to pinpoint the dislocations in the market.

While the rest of the world starts to embrace and prepare for the COVID-19 by avoiding and canceling crowded events and corporate events, China appears to be coming out of the crisis mode, slowly but surely.  Macau has not had a new COVID-19 case for one month (since Feb 4th).  Once the Individual Visit Scheme visa resumes, we believe Macau will be a top destination for mainland Chinese with pent-up leisure travel demand.

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

Despite recent weakness across global markets, our weight of the evidence approach continues to lead us to the same conclusions as we posited in our 1/24/20 and 1/30/20 Int’l Compass reports: we continue to believe this is a bull market until proven otherwise, and a “buy the dip” strategy remains warranted. In our February International Strategy, we highlight various themes which lead to our bullish outlook, and offer several attractive opportunities we are seeing in the global health care and technology sectors..

Have sector leaders formed a defensive bottom or does another step down loom on the virus scare?
Unspent gaming budges quietly building a head of steam as VIP and mass players await safe ending to epidemic.
