SET50 Index Rebalance: KCE Replaces TIDLOR

- Passive trackers will need to buy close to 1.2% of KCE Electronics PCL (KCE TB)‘s free float while selling around 1.6% of float in Ngern Tid Lor (TIDLOR TB).
Japanese Banks – No Change to Our Bullish View on the Back of the BoJ’s Pause on Interest Rates
- We see Ueda’s pause on lifting its negative rates policy as temporary, and we expect that this policy change could occur as early as January
- Despite this monetary pause in tightening and the fall in 10Y JGB yields, we are encouraged by the rise in long term loan yields in the BoJ data to October-end
- We reiterate our positive views on Resona, Mizuho, MUFG and Concordia
India Shelter Finance IPO Trading – Subscription Pulled by Strong Insti Demand
- India Shelter Finance (0570670D IN) raised around US$144m from its India IPO.
- India Shelter Finance (ISF) is a retail-focused HFC targeting the self-employed customer with a focus on first time home loan takers in the low and middle income group.
- We have covered various aspects of the deal in our previous note. In this note, we will talk about the demand and trading dynamics.
AMFI Stock Reclassification Preview (Dec 2023): MidCap to LargeCap Migrations Outperforming
- We see 8 stocks moving from MidCap to LargeCap, 8 stocks moving from LargeCap to MidCap, 11 stocks from SmallCap to MidCap, and 14 stocks from MidCap to SmallCap.
- Some stocks were added to global indices last month while some could be added in February. There are potential index implications for the NIFTY Index and Nifty Next 50 Index too.
- The upward migrations have continued to outperform the downward migrations. The largest recent outperformance has come from stocks expected to move from the Mid Cap to the Large Cap segment.
Stylam Industries (SYIL IN): Sluggish Exports, FY25 To See Improvements With Expansion
- While the profitability of Stylam Industries (SYIL IN) is growing healthily (>30% YoY) in H1 FY24 due to margin expansion, revenues are trending at -4.5% YoY.
- The company became net cash in H1 FY24 (73 crore INR) and zero gross debt. A strong balance sheet would aid in the company’s expansion plans.
- Trading at 23x/18x FY24e/25e, we see strong growth ahead for the company as it cements its position as one of India’s top laminate export players.
