- In the IPO space, Australia finally got its IPO counter ticking for the year with Redox (RDX AU).
- On the placement front, Infratil Ltd (IFT NZ) raised to increase its stake in One NZ. While Skymark Airlines (9204 JP) will see a lockup expiry in the coming week.
China Healthcare Weekly (Jun.9) – Pediatric TCM New Policy, Long-Term Money Dislikes A-Share, Clover
- The General Office of National Health Commission issued a notice on further strengthening the management of clinical medication for children. Pediatric TCM is more popular, with decent growth potential.
- Long-Term money choosing to leave A-share isn’t due to geopolitical risks. If outlook isn’t good, the logic of capital’s allocation in A-share isn’t based on promising growth, but on liquidity instead.
- We analyzed key points of Clover Biopharmaceuticals (2197 HK). The Company has entered a vicious cycle. If Clover is abandoned by the market, it will lead to lack of liquidity.
