Long-Short Analysis on Japan, Asia and the World

LightStream Research

LightStream conducts quantitatively rigorous and data-driven analysis with a focus on Japan and Asia.

We consistently cover the Tech, Consumer and Industrial sectors, and provide ECM and Events coverage more broadly.

We supplement traditional qualitative insights from company relationships with a robust quantitative foundation that examines as much historical data as is available.
We further refine the accuracy of our insights and calls through the use of alternative data to flesh out current trends, and through a valuation framework that emphasises non-superficial peer group selection and a proper attempt to understand the metrics and changes that have driven security valuations in the past.

Equity Bottom-Up

<li>Just as investors were starting to get comfortable investing in Chinese big tech, the Government has imposed new fines on a range of tech companies.</li>
<li>Meanwhile, the June ending quarter could yet again be a disspointment with growth curtailed through lack of funding for loss making businesses.</li>
<li>Having gained around 50% in June 2022 through signs of easing the tech crackdown, these new fines and a weak June-ending quarter could resend tech valuations to March-2022 lows.    </li>
