India Channel Insight #38 | Ashok Leyland, Tata Motors (MHCV)

By Pranav Bhavsar

  • Infrastructure and E-commerce are core drivers of the MHCV recovery 
  • The market for Retail fleet operators (1-5 trucks) has shrunk. 
  • Ashok Leyland (AL IN) ‘s market share gain has been on the back of discounting and is unlikely to sustain. 

Tokyo Electron (8035 JP): New Medium-Term Plan Vs. Reality

By Scott Foster

  • Tokyo Electron has announced a new Medium-term Plan that shows what the company could probably do if the next five years were as good as the last five years.
  • That seems unlikely. The plan ignores rising interest rates, the risk of recession, political risk, and the possibility of demand from South Korea, Taiwan and China maxing out. 
  • It looks like FY Mar-23 guidance is intended to be conservative.  That cannot be take for granted.

Shorting Trend Projections on KOSPI 200 Additions

By Sanghyun Park

  • All of these additions experienced significant levels of short trading yesterday. In particular, those newly listed stocks saw harsher shorting attacks, similar to what we witnessed at the last rebalancing.
  • A certain level of short selling trend for newly listed stocks will likely work the same this time, and the applicable period is expected to be 3-4 trading days.
  • That is, we need to target the newly listed stocks again for this rebalancing: Iljin Hysolus (271940 KS), K Car (381970 KS), and SD Biosensor (137310 KS).
