Shinsei Bank (8303 JP) is/was my High Conviction call for 2022. 
SBI went to 47.77% in the Tender and is higher as Shinsei has bought back stock. Shinsei has more to go and could get funkier to buy back more.
8 February is the EGM to approve a new board and explicit SBI control. Delisting expectations will rise after that, but practically it will take time.

<li>I was originally going to title this <em>Shinsei Bank Buyback to Continue - Watch the Squeeze</em>.</li>
<li>In reviewing the new news, and the existing setup, and reviewing my previous work on the name (<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/profiles/travis-lundy/insights?fulltext=Shinsei" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>), I am inclined to repeat my 2021 High Conviction trade. Shinsei Bank.</li>
<li>So I did. Shinsei is my High Conviction Idea for a second year in a row. </li>

So I did. Shinsei is my High Conviction Idea for a second year in a row.
