Great Wall Motor (2333 HK) – RMB Dual Counter Trading Starts Today, Watch that A-Share Discount

By Travis Lundy

  • 24 different HK-listed stocks will be tradable in RMB on the HKEX starting 19 June. They make up 35% of HKEX market cap, 40% of total turnover. They are fungible.
  • The ultimate goal is to allow mainland investors to trade HK stocks in RMB, but we’re not there yet. Southbound has yet to be approved for the 21 SB-eligible names.
  • Only five of the 24 have A-shares, and of those, three (China Mobile, CNOOC, and Great Wall Motor) have wide H-share discounts. Those should be the ones to look at.

Amara Holdings (AMA SP): Key Shareholders Ponder an Offer

By Arun George

  • Amara Holdings (AMA SP) received a written notification from Mr Albert Teo Hock Chuan (CEO) and Ms Susan Teo Geok Tin (Company Secretary) that they mulling an offer. 
  • The shares entered a trading halt on 16 June as the share price increased 23.9% from S$0.355 on 14 June to S$0.440 per share on 16 June.
  • Recent SGX privatisation proposals have shown that offerors tend to be miserly with their premiums. The sharp share price rally makes it challenging to launch an offer.
