Index Rebalance

<ul>
<li>Korea's battery sector got wrecked, crushing POSCO and Samsung SDI's caps. Shakeup incoming: Hanwha Aerospace locks in, and Samsung Biologics is also a strong contender.</li>
<li>Low pre-positioning leads to highly correlated moves on rebalance day; last June, KB and Shinhan got in while LG Chem and Energy got cut with similar impact, netting ~3% yield.</li>
<li>Given the track record, it makes sense to trim the holding window on rebalance day and deploy a long-short strategy.</li>

Korea's battery sector got wrecked, crushing POSCO and Samsung SDI's caps. Shakeup incoming: Hanwha Aerospace locks in, and Samsung Biologics is also a strong contender.
Low pre-positioning leads to highly correlated moves on rebalance day; last June, KB and Shinhan got in while LG Chem and Energy got cut with similar impact, netting ~3% yield.

Market sees this as an M&amp;A play, not just de-leveraging. Sentiment’s split, and despite a tight discount, uncertainty on take-up could spark major dislocations in stock and rights.
Hanwha’s ₩3.6T raise drops just a week after Samsung SDI’s ₩2T—₩5.5T back-to-back. Absorption looks brutal, setting up serious volatility and prime trading opps if liquidity tightens.
The FSC fast-tracked this, flagging it instantly but also hinting approval. With regulator risk off, any cash market snapback tomorrow should stay in check.
