LG Energy Allocation Results: Immediate Float Confirmed at 8.8%

By Sanghyun Park

  • Foreign institutions received 60% of the total institutional allocation. They only accounted for 0.58% of the orders applied. Many of these are large foreign institutions with long-term holding tendencies.
  • The fact that they rarely make lockup pledges due to internal policies is in line with LG Energy’s need for an immediate float rate of 10% while having long-term investors.
  • As a result, the nominal float rate is 8.85%. quite exquisite results as it is just enough to satisfy KOSPI 200’s 10% minimum float rate rule.

Luckin Coffee Relisting: Could Be Another Attempt to Deceive Investors

By Oshadhi Kumarasiri

  • Following an improvement in the financial performance, The FT reported that Luckin Coffee (LKNCY US) is plotting to relist its shares in the US sometime this year.
  • Although financials have improved, relisting seems a bit premature, especially since Luckin is still not a completely clean house.
  • This relisting feels a bit like another attempt by the ex-chairman to deceive minority investors to get the best possible exit price.
