Last Week in Event SPACE: Shin Kong/Taishin Financial, Jardine Matheson, Toyota Motors, Huafa Props
- CTBC’s (likely) goal is to boost Shin Kong (2888 TT)‘s shares, so as to make the Taishin Financial Holding (2887 TT) merger unpalatable for Shin Kong shareholders. That smells of opportunity.
- Jardine Matheson Holdings (JM SP) is trading cheap to NAV and its implied stub. It may well get cheaper.
- Toyota Motor (7203 JP)‘s resulting supply/demand profile is mixed, but on balance, expect to see positive demand into the H1 earnings announcement. Watch for another buyback possibly announced then.
