Encouraging data about a potential coronavirus vaccine from Pfizer Inc (PFE US) gives a boost to Nevada-gaming stocks, which now trade "rich" to their Macau gaming holdings.
Conversely, Melco International Development (200 HK) is trading cheap to Melco Resorts &amp; Entertainment (MLCO US), as Lawrence Ho continues to add to his holding - plus there are large movements in CCASS.



Preceding my comments on Melco and Swire Pacific (A) (19 HK)  are the weekly setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.




These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity threshold of US$1mn on a 90-day moving average, and a % market capitalisation threshold - the $ value of the holding/opco held, over the parent’s market capitalisation, expressed in percent - of at least 20%.
