Shinko Electric (6967 JP): Widening Spread Is an Opportunity

<li>When this deal was announced, it was light. But the timing, JSR influence, large-ish float, ensured FUD would make this trade wide. It traded wider. </li>
<li>12wks ago, Shinko had much-underperformed peer Ibiden, meaning downside gap risk from undisturbed was negative as spreads were wide. I reco'd a buy. Then 5wks ago, reco'd trimming.</li>
<li>Shinko had outperformed Ibiden, and gross spreads had come in 5+% on JSR's approval. Spreads are now 3% wider than their narrowest, but gap risk has widened as Shinko outperforms.</li>
