Index Rebalance & ETF Flow Recap: HSCI, GDXJ, KRX New Deal, AMFI, Amman Mineral, Infratil

By Brian Freitas

  • The changes for the KOSPI2 INDEX, KOSDAQ150 Index, CSI300 Index, STAR50 INDEX and a bunch of other onshore China indices were implemented last week.
  • The coming week has a lot of rebalance implementations on Friday with the S&P/ASX family and the MVIS family, among others.
  • AUM for the Yuanta/P-shares Taiwan Top 50 ETF (0050 TT) has continued to increase with big inflows in the last week.

Last Week in Event SPACE: Toshiba, China Resources Power, Chindata, Tian An China

By David Blennerhassett

  • Toshiba Corp (6502 JP)‘s Board has a Revised Opinion. It has recommended the Offer for reasons which smack of resignation rather than appropriate deliberation. Investors beware.
  • Given CR Power (836 HK)‘s clean energy unit’s profitably, a listing should be a significant event, attracting a wide audience, and probably a premium to other listed green energy plays.
  • Chindata Group (CD US) is unquestionably cheap. But Bain’s indicative Offer is not the answer to long-suffering shareholders.

Early Preview of KOSDAQ 150 Ad-Hoc Change in July: Hydro Lithium Will Replace NICE IS

By Sanghyun Park

  • Hydro Lithium (formerly Korea Se Corp) is the top reserved issue in INDUSTRIALS and will get to replace NICE IS as a result of the KOSPI transfer listing.  
  • The most significant price movements occur when the index corporate action announcement is made. However, some investors hunt for this pattern, as observed in the case of Youlchon Chemical.
  • Hence, it’s worth considering an earlier entry timing. To minimize uncertainty, it’s vital to keep an eye on the preemptive price increase of Hydro Lithium before KRX’s approval.
