Equity Bottom-Up

*Crackdown Begins: The State Administration for Market Regulations (SAMR) or better know as mainland China’s antitrust regulator fined China Literature (772.HK), Tencent Holdings (700.HK) [Tencent] subsidiary CNY 500,000 for failing to gain certain acquisition or buyout approvals – thereby violating the country’s anti-monopoly laws; and *Small Fine, But Implications Large: The current Tencent fine is relatively small compared to the size of the company, however, it does serve as a wake-up call to halt M&amp;A activity without the requisite regulatory sign off. SAMR is also looking into a recent deal between Huya (HUYA.US) and Douyu (DOYU.US) where Tencent would have 68% of voting shares in the combined entity.
