KRX Sector Rebalance Shocker: Massive Flow Impact on Hankook & Company

By Sanghyun Park

  • Hankook & Company is unexpectedly entering Autos, the only large-cap inclusion, likely getting a significant weight and facing a massive flow impact.
  • Like BBIG, this single-day flow event driven by one or two ETFs means smaller front-running impact, but names like Hankook & Company could see early positioning due to massive flows.
  • I’ll position in big impact names two days before the ETF rebalance trading. I’ll then go long on a basket of those with over 0.5x ADTV at Wednesday’s close.

Weekly Consumer Tales: India Festive Season: Hyundai Slows, Toyota Aces. First Cry Fails to Cheer

By Devi Subhakesan

  • Welcome to Consumer Tales & Trends, your weekly roundup of the latest corporate developments, investment reports and sector events in the consumer industry.
  • Hyundai Motor India’s August dispatch volumes were down 8% versus previous year – mostly due to sluggish demand for hatchback segment amd intense competition in the SUV segment.
  • Toyota Motor (7203 JP) is on a fast track in India recording high double digit volume growth thanks mainly to successful launch of rebadged Suzuki models.
