<li>Poor 1H23 result at <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shenzhen-international-holdings-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:9:1" rel="noopener">Shenzhen International (152 HK)</a> should have been anticipated, and we believe there is good room for sharp earnings improvement in 2H23.</li>
<li>Completion of logistics projects, more asset value realisation (through REIT and private equity funds), contribution from Yicheng Qiwanli and lower finance costs should underpin outlook.</li>

Keisei Electric (9009 JP)'s valuation has deviated from Oriental Land (4661 JP)'s since the proposed expansion of Tokyo Disney Sea, Fantasy Springs. That bifurcation should now reverse. 
Don't expect a serious fight in Nidec (6594 JP)'s hostile for Takisawa Machine Tool (6121 JP).  Fanuc could counter. It is possible others could step up but we wouldn't know. 
On the back of the news to spin off and list some logistics ops, Shenzhen International (152 HK) is probably a buy on weakness vs Stub Ops Peers.
