Mirae Asset Tiger 200 It ETF / Index Rebalance

<ul>
<li>In KOSPI 200 IT Sector Index rebalancing in June, we should consider using Samsung SDS as a hedge for short positions on KakaoPay from a day trading perspective.</li>
<li>The expected performance of traditional flow trading based on passive impact has become uncertain due to flexible rebalancing trading by local pensions and short selling resumption on K200 new entrants.</li>
<li>As such, flow events on these sector indices that are still pretty much under the radar in the market could be a meaningful alternative for us.</li>

In KOSPI 200 IT Sector Index rebalancing in June, we should consider using Samsung SDS as a hedge for short positions on KakaoPay from a day trading perspective.
The expected performance of traditional flow trading based on passive impact has become uncertain due to flexible rebalancing trading by local pensions and short selling resumption on K200 new entrants.
As such, flow events on these sector indices that are still pretty much under the radar in the market could be a meaningful alternative for us.


An Alternative Flow Trading Angle for K200 Rebalancing in June

Event-Driven

<ul>
<li>Kakao Pay's GICS sector movement from IT to FINANCIALS creates flow trading opportunities due to the subsequent transfer between KOSPI 200's sector sub-indices.</li>
<li>An outflow of ₩24.6B or 410K shares will occur. This is 0.6x ADTV. Given that the recent trading volume has further decreased, the actual impact will likely exceed 1.0x DTV.</li>
<li>It will be a concentrated flow in a single trading day by a single ETF, which gives us plenty of reasons for preemptively designing a short position targeting this.</li>

An outflow of ₩24.6B or 410K shares will occur. This is 0.6x ADTV. Given that the recent trading volume has further decreased, the actual impact will likely exceed 1.0x DTV.
It will be a concentrated flow in a single trading day by a single ETF, which gives us plenty of reasons for preemptively designing a short position targeting this.


Shorting Kakao Pay on K200 Sector Index Passive Outflow Due to GICS Change on June 8

<ul>
<li>We should focus on the weight changes of the existing constituents. For this, two names really stand out: Kakao Pay (+0.44x ADTV) and LG Corp (+0.37x ADTV).</li>
<li>It is because Kakao Pay and LG Corp will undergo an increase in their float rate in the KOSPI 200 rebalancing, and these up-weights will also affect this sector index.</li>
<li>Their combined inflow size (KOSPI 200 &amp; KOSPI 200 IT) will be 1.41x and 1.16x ADTVs. This will be the most substantial, except for Kakao Bank and the new additions.</li>
