Nikkei 225 Rebalance Day – Shinsei Dip Chance?

By Travis Lundy

  • The Nikkei 225 Rebalance to boot Shinsei Bank (8303 JP) and add Orix Corp (8591 JP) occurs today at the close. 
  • The announcement was not a surprise per se, but BOTH have outperformed their Peer Baskets since the announcement, ORIX by a long ways.
  • ORIX is a bigger deal, Shinsei is worth buying a dip.

Toyo Construction (1890) Funkier Still

By Travis Lundy

  • Toyo Construction (1890 JP) situation changes day by day. In three days we have three Large Shareholder Report filings as The Expected Activist ducked out, replaced by A New Entrant.
  • Now one has to consider what the rest of this week has looked like.
  • And we wonder who it is, but reading between the lines can get you to a place where one might see what the aim is.
