There is no good reason to buy Japan Post Bank (7182 JP)'s dip until the offering. It's unlikely to earn the ROE to deserve the PBR it has versus peers.
Brookfield and EIG/MidOcean's revised NBIO will garner Origin Energy (ORG AU) board support; however, the terms are weird and unfair to investors holding fewer than 100k shares. 

SATS (SATS SP) rights offer is not actually a surprise. Not at all. Passive funds will exercise.

Pan-Asia Index Rebalances/ Events/ Delta One

Periscope Analytics

Periscope Analytics focuses on event-driven trades across Asia Pacific and provides comprehensive, timely and systematic coverage of index changes to major Asia Pacific indices in a structured manner.

The analysis includes forecasted inclusions and exclusions to all major Asian indices that have significant amount of tracking assets, including estimates of passive buy/sell flow on the stocks. The service also provides commentary and impact of market consultations, ground rule changes, and other events (IPOs, spin-offs, M&A) that could lead to index changes and passive flow.

Periscope Analytics works with multi-strategy hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, stat arb trading groups and long-only investors that invest and trade in the Asia Pacific region with the data being used to trade index rebalances, avoid pre-positioning and passive flow, and to time entry into and exit from stocks.
