Matched Order Fraud in Korea: Reason Behind Eight Stocks Hit Massively

By Sanghyun Park

  • The local ghost hedge fund began to excessively invest in credit, which leveraged 2.5 to 3 times when the eight manipulated stocks started to increase rapidly in price.
  • Then, the Financial Supervisory Service deemed this excessively-leveraged trading behavior as unusual, and news of an investigation into their activities broke out and triggered them to dump the shares.
  • The key now is identifying in advance the stocks that will experience similar selling patterns. To do so, we need to prioritize selecting stocks with high-margin balances in recent times.

AAG (2686 HK): Pros & Cons Ahead Of Scheme Vote

By David Blennerhassett

  • We’re down to the pointy end of AAG Energy Holdings (2686 HK)‘s Scheme. And at a gross/annualised spread of 15.6%/318%, all is not well.
  • The uncertainty is not without substance. A derisory Offer, one that is rejected by a proxy advisor; together with a silent, large shareholder no one seems to know.
  • Shareholders go to the vote this Thursday, the 27th April. Currently trading 5% below the undisturbed price.
