Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

<ul>
<li>We remain near-term bullish since our 4/22/25 Compass, and our intermediate-term outlook remains bullish as well (as of our 5/14/25 Compass), with Int’l Compass reports all echoing this sentiment.</li>
<li>Our bullish near-term outlook will remain in place as long as the 5+ month uptrend continues on ACWI-US. So far, the latest pullback is testing the uptrend -- buy/stay long.</li>
<li>We are buying the test of 7-month base support in Europe (EURO STOXX 50). China's Shanghai Composite points to a second chance breakout attempt above 1.5-month resistance -- buy/stay long</li>

SANY Heavy Industry H Share Listing: The Investment Case

HK/China Equity Long-Short

Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Strong industry sales of wheel loaders (+10.4% YoY) and excavators (+18.8%) in Jul-Aug suggested that the current consensus earnings forecasts are too conservative. </li>
<li>
<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/lonking-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:3944:1" rel="noopener">Lonking Holdings (3339 HK)</a> will also benefit from the strength of the equities market, given it has an investment portfolio of Rmb2.4bn, or 18.6% of its market capitalisation.</li>
<li>Given net cash equalling HK$2.02/share, or 66.1% of its share price, its 10.3x PER and 4.5% dividend yield for FY25F still appear undemanding. </li>
</ul>


Strong industry sales of wheel loaders (+10.4% YoY) and excavators (+18.8%) in Jul-Aug suggested that the current consensus earnings forecasts are too conservative. 

Lonking Holdings (3339 HK) will also benefit from the strength of the equities market, given it has an investment portfolio of Rmb2.4bn, or 18.6% of its market capitalisation.
Given net cash equalling HK$2.02/share, or 66.1% of its share price, its 10.3x PER and 4.5% dividend yield for FY25F still appear undemanding.
