Yesterday, MSCI <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/The%20changes%20will%20be%20effective%20after%20the%20close%20of%20trading%20on%2030%20November." target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> its November 2020 Semi-Annual Index Review.  As widely anticipated, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/jardine-cycle-carriage-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:347:1" rel="noopener">Jardine Cycle &amp; Carriage (JCNC SP)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/yangzijiang-shipbuilding-holdings-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:660:1" rel="noopener">Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (YZJSGD SP)</a> are shown the exit, reducing the number of index constituents to 19. The changes will be effective after the close of trading on 30 November.
In <a href="https://skr.ma/N64Lw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MSCI Singapore Index Rebalance Nov20: Shrinking Number of Constituents</a>, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/profiles/brian-freitas" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="accounts:4091" rel="noopener">Brian Freitas</a> reckons 8.9 days of ADV to sell of JCNC from passive funds. JCNC is down ~3% today as I type, against +3% for ASII.
I see JCNC's discount to NAV at ~36% against a 12-month average of ~17%, having recently moved off its all-time low of ~38%.
As JCNC is all-but a proxy into Astra, this appears a straight-forward mean reversion play.

Xi’s Answers To Trump - New PR Campaign – Dual Circulation: What Is It? – Nothing Really.

What happens when major events or actions are either overlooked or misunderstood? In today’s enlightening geo-political news coverage, one may not have time to contemplate or meditate on big transactions that can alter an industry which may lead to a transformation or secular change.  
For example, what happened when Softbank announced their $100Billion Vision Fund? They became the Whale in the venture capital world. The domino effect for many investors and valuations for many companies in their universe skyrocketed. But how many investors realized and profited from this unprecedented event. This phenomenon was quite unreal.  What if this phenomenon occurred in another industry?
Due to the COVID pandemic and various projections from experts, we believe many misunderstood a “Whale”  phenomenon that recently occurred in LNG vessels.
Furthermore, is it crazy to think that the future of infrastructure and industrial policies pulls forward?
