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.

On February 23rd, the Korean government announced numerous domestic consumption boosting measures. Among them included a discount of 30-50% on KTX (high speed rail in Korea) if the tickets are purchased 25 days in advance. This discount on high speed rail is effective starting August.

Korea / Special Situations

In many people's mind, the fastest growing and most successful tech startup in the last five years in Korea would be the social commerce giant named Coupang. The company made its name selling Groupon-like social commerce coupons, but perhaps, most of us remember it as one of Softbank's mega investments. Softbank surprised many industry watchers by making a whopping US$1bil investment in Coupang back in 2015. Once Korea's biggest startup success story in the recent years is now facing an uphill battle for its own survival.
