<ul>
<li>The HSCEI is well-known and well-followed but sees less passive tracking than you might expect. Quiddity teammember Janaghan had expected up to two ADDs and two DELETEs.</li>
<li>We got one ADD and one DELETE instead as <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sensetime-group-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:34319:1" rel="noopener">SenseTime Group (20 HK)</a> was "saved" from deletion by a FFW/FAF increase. </li>
<li>Relatively smaller flows here at 3% one-way with the big flows on the name changes.</li>

<ul>
<li>The Hang Seng Index benchmark has been expected to see an increase in names and flows to Healthcare. We have only one ADD (IT/tech) and one DELETE.</li>
<li>But the headlined DELETE candidate in <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/quiddity-leaderboard-for-hang-seng-index-jun-24-could-country-garden-services-get-deleted" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the most recent Quiddity Leaderboard</a> was chosen to be deleted. And the ADD one of our top two.</li>
<li>Flows are somewhat restrained at capping flows, small name change flows, and then a few FFW/FAF changes to be about 1.9% one-way flows in total.</li>
