Index Rebalance

<ul>
<li>Nearly 85% of the way through the review period, we see 2 changes using a 12-month minimum listing history, and 5 changes using a 6-month minimum listing history.</li>
<li>Given the significantly higher market cap of the inclusions using a 6-month minimum listing history, we expect the index committee will continue to use the shorter listing history requirement.</li>
<li>With 5 changes a side, one-way turnover is estimated at 5.15% and will result in a one-way trade of CNY 3,994m. Impact on some deletions is quite high.</li>

STAR50 Index Rebalance: Adds Outperform Deletes in the Last Week

<ul>
<li>With the review period nearly complete, there could be 4 changes using a 12-month minimum listing history, and 5 changes using a 6-month minimum listing history.</li>
<li>The market cap of potential adds using a 6-month minimum listing history is higher and there is a higher probability of a 6-month minimum listing history being used.</li>

STAR50 Index Rebalance Preview: Stable Long/Short Performance in a Volatile Market

<ul>
<li>We saw some rebounds of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/microport-scientific-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:4487:1" rel="noopener">Microport Scientific (853 HK)</a>’s share price recently, which was mainly driven by the catalysts from the policy side. However, such rebounds would not last. </li>
<li>Microport’s development mode is unfavorable to investors. It’s not surprising for Microport to underperform or its valuation to be lower than expected. We recommend investors to focus more on Microport's subsidiaries.</li>
<li>The communication between Microport and investors has a problem, leading investors to think the management's no longer credible. How to repay the US$700 million convertible bond is also a problem.</li>
