Miniso: Genuinely Undervalued & A Decent Long Hedge to Increase Short Exposure to Chinese E-Commerce

By Oshadhi Kumarasiri

  • After hitting the bottom during the COVID crisis, the only direction left for MINISO Group Holdings (MNSO US) to move is up.
  • Given the current valuations, Miniso could generate multi-bagger returns during favourable market conditions.
  • In addition, Miniso could help investors generate sizable returns in the short-term on the short side with increased short exposure to Chinese E-commerce.

KKP – Small Enough To Grow

By Daniel Tabbush

  • This smaller Thai bank can more easily grow due to relatively small loan base
  • Strong core fundamentals of rising interest income and falling funding costs
  • Credit costs remain inflated, falling figures can support strong ROA growth

Yaskawa (6506) | Further 20% Downside on Higher Rate Cycle

By Mark Chadwick

  • Stay short ahead of Q1 results. Full year guidance remains too high and will likely be cut later this year
  • Yaskawa remains a cyclical stock that correlates with the SOX index – higher interest rates are impacting valuation multiples
  • We see 20% downside risk towards 3x price to book
