<h3>Cuscaden Peak minimum chain offer price for each <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sph-reit" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:5994" rel="noopener">SPH REIT (SPHREIT SP)</a> unit stands at S$96.4c</h3>
<ul>
<li>The minimum chain offer price, which consortium Cuscaden Peak will have to offer for each SPHREIT if its acquisition bid for Singapore Press Holdings (SPH SP) succeeds is S$96.4c, fully in cash. The consortium had made a surprise rival bid to privatise SPH, following an earlier offer from Keppel Corp (KEP SP). Such an acquisition would take place by way of a scheme of arrangement. Subject to the finalisation of the terms of such a scheme, the completion of Cuscaden's proposed cash acquisition would result in an obligation for it to undertake a chain offer for all SPHREIT units as well, in accordance with the Singapore Code on Take-overs and Mergers</li>
<li>The minimum chain offer price shall be the simple average of the daily volume-weighted average traded prices of SPHREIT units, on either the latest 20 trading days, or whatever number of trading days there were within 30 calendar days before the announcement of the possible offer. The chain offer will not be made unless and until the possible scheme becomes effective in accordance with its terms, or – if Cuscaden undertakes the proposed acquisition in another method – is declared effective or unconditional, and/or is completed. Cuscaden's offer for SPH is S$2.10 per share in cash. Cuscaden comprises Hotel Properties, businessman Ong Beng Seng and two Temasek-linked entities – CLA Real Estate Holdings and Mapletree. Its proposal still needs to be accepted by the board of SPH.</li>

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

<p>Emerging market equities have been one of the worst areas to invest in 2021, but we see early signs of positive change. With the US dollar failing to break above resistance at $93.50 and the MSCI EM ETF (EEM-US) displaying a false breakdown at $52, we believe now is an opportune time to add exposure to emerging market equities. To be clear, we are not getting overly bullish on EM; we have favored developed int’l (EAFE) over EM since May, and we are now shifting back to a neutral stance between the two. We see reason to believe the tide is shifting in EM’s favor. Below we highlight attractive and actionable themes within EM.</p>
