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.

When property advisors (JLL, Knight Frank, CBRE etc) debate the bottom of Hong Kong's office/retail market, such commentary is often infused with cautious optimism. 
And for good reason, as vacancies increase, and rents soften.
Recent press articles and anecdotal evidence suggests market uncertainty lingers, prompting  landlords to (further) assess their stance on rents.

Insights across South East Asia

The remarkable political pact (MoU) signed between PM Ismail Sabri Yaakob and 4 leaders of the constituent parties of the PH opposition alliance ensures political and economic-policy stability until the end of July 2022. PH gained an assurance of political reforms (an anti-defection law, lowering the voting age to 18, greater representation in parliamentary committees and equal funding for opposition and ruling-party MPs) in exchange for its conditional pledge not to dislodge the government for nearly 11 months, and support the Budget for 2022. The pact does not contain any steps to counter the gerrymandering of constituencies that UMNO and BN have effected over the past five decades. And it says nothing about policies other than purely budgetary matters. The UMNO-PAS-Bersatu alliance (a pure Malay-Muslim ruling group) has since moved swiftly to exploit those loopholes -- by advancing a series of discriminatory steps that deepen the racist underpinnings of Malaysia's constitution (negotiated by the departing British in 1948-57). A key policy being advanced requires all freight-forwarding and logistics companies to be 51% Bumiputera owned by end-2021; this will have a severely negative impact on non-Muslim-owned companies big and small (with most conglomerates having a freight-forwarding unit, and numerous small-businesses being based on trucking and logistics).The 12th Malaysia Plan (tabled last month) includes a policy requiring that all Bumiputera companies only be sold to Bumiputeras. And the infamous RUU 355 legislation (enhancing the powers of Shariah Courts over criminal cases, and allowing them to use traditional Islamic punishments) is progressing rapidly under this government.  These 3 legislations may endear the UMNO-PAS alliance to Malays nationally. They are aimed at putting PH's leader Anwar Ibrahim on the spot, as (despite founding the Islamic students' movement ABIM in the 1970s) Anwar leads an explicitly multi-racial party (at the head of a genuinely multi-racial alliance) and has eloquently advocated a race-neutral Malaysia over the past decade. More enduringly, these policies (unless reversed by a future PH government) risk permanently alienating much of Malaysia's business community (who will then choose to invest outside Malaysia rather than within it, turning Malaysia increasingly into an economy of generally-inefficient GLCs and foreign-owned MNCs). Despite the appearance of policy stability from this pact, the policies of this government are permanently handicapping Malaysia and threaten its longer-term economic viability.
