Timing Stub Trade on Amorepacific Group with a Key Passive Inflow Event Coming Up

By Sanghyun Park

  • AmoreG has been closely moving relative to Amorepacific Corp (090430 KS) over the past few months, but starting from mid-April, it rapidly entered a downward diversion phase.
  • It appears to have experienced greater sensitivity towards the recent tensions in Sino-Korean relations, possibly due to its higher price correlation with the Chinese market.
  • The issue lies in the timing of entry aimed at reversion, and there may be one upcoming passive inflow event that we should pay attention to in this regard.
