The Korea Exchange (KRX) will announce the results of the December 2020 review of the KOSDAQ150 Index in the second half of November. The constituent changes will be effective from the open on 11 December 2020 and the rebalancing trades will need to be done at the closing auction on 10 December 2020.The review covers the period from 1 May to 31 October. We have gone through 120 trading days and there are only 3 days remaining in the review period. Since the data is averaged, there is a very small possibility of the names changing over the next few days.At the current time, we see 16 potential inclusions and exclusions with a one-way turnover of 6.94%. This includes the fast entry inclusion of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/kakao-games-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:26730:1" rel="noopener">Kakao Games (293490 KS)</a>.The expected inclusions have outperformed the expected deletions since the start of the review period but have given up a significant part of the gains over the last couple of months. With short selling still banned, there could be another period of outperformance prior to the announcement with continuation leading up to implementation date.
