Last Week in Event SPACE: ANZ/​Suncorp, JCNC, Adani, Khan Bank/HS Holdings, Hong Kong Buybacks

By David Blennerhassett

  • In a dealbreak, ANZ (ANZ AU) will either have enough capital in a downturn or excess capital it could use to buy back stock. If behavioural remedies, SunCorp is cheaper. 
  • Jardine Cycle & Carriage (JCNC SP)‘s implied stub value is around its highest-ever level, dating back to 2004.
  • There is no good reason to be long Adani names, even if GQG is up 25% on his money so far.

Popmart (9992 HK): Long Term Constraints Cloud Near Term Recovery

By Eric Chen

  • Markets expect Popmart to deliver fast growth for years to come, yet we are skeptical because the pop toy business, by definition, is a niche market.
  • Blaming COVID for Popmart’s weak results risks focusing too much on near-term cyclical recovery but overlooking structural bottlenecks to growth.
  • While we are cautious for long term, continued improvement in business and news flow leading to 1H results will likely result in share price rebound and provide tactical trading opportunity.
