Unloved Japan Round Up Jan. 3: Set Up for A Banner Year?
- 2025 will start with more attractive turnaround opportunities than we have seen in a long time.
- An uptick in TOBs, MBOs and merger discussions makes it suddenly no longer safe to short low-PBR companies indiscriminately.
- Investors are noticing. More than two-dozen large- and medium-cap stocks with deep discounts to the benchmark began to bounce off well-defined support levels in late December.
Samsung Group ETF Rebalancing Event to Watch for in June
- With Samsung finalizing the call option on Rainbow Robotics in February, the FTC will add it to Samsung Group in March, ensuring its inclusion in the ETF by June.
- With the market cap boost from the call option, Rainbow Robotics is set to easily exceed 2% weight in the ETF by June.
- The rebalancing from June 2-9 will direct 30% of daily volume into Rainbow Robotics, likely enough to move the needle on price action, especially on the first day.
Triumph Group’s Solid Cost-Cutting Efforts Skyrocket EBITDA Margins! – Major Drivers
- Triumph Group presented a mix of performance outcomes in its second quarter fiscal 2025 results.
- The company demonstrated a commendable increase in its aftermarket growth, which surged 13% year-over-year and contributed over 60% to its profit.
- This was achieved through robust spares and repairs activities within both commercial and military sectors, setting a positive trend amid some broader market challenges.
