Where Does Melco’s Discount To NAV Go From Here?
- On the 26 November, Macau’s government renewed the concession periods of the city’s six incumbent gambling concessionaires for another 10 years.
- Genting Malaysia (GENM MK), a last-minute interloper, failed in its bid to secure a license. It scored lowest under the government’s bidding review. MGM China (2282 HK) topped the scoresheets.
- As with all incumbents, Melco International (200 HK) and Melco Resorts & Entertainment (MLCO US) eked out strong gains following the renewal. Melco’s current discount to NAV is currently 20%.
Nippon Prologis REIT (3283 JP): Offering Could Be a Catalyst for Outperformance Vs Peers
- Japan’s largest logistics REIT Nippon Prologis Reit (3283 JP) (“NPR”) announced a US$170mn follow-on equity offering to fund their recent acquisition of three logistics facilities.
- The primary offer quantity will be 76,570 units out of which 44,410 units and 32,160 units are expected to be allocated for domestic and international investors, respectively.

HSCEI Index Rebalance Preview: Shenhua Energy (1088) Could Replace China Feihe (6186)
- Nearing the end of the review period for the March rebalance, we see China Shenhua Energy Co H (1088 HK) replacing China Feihe (6186 HK) in the HSCEI INDEX.
- Estimated one-way turnover is 1.64% resulting in a one-way trade of HK$1.02bn with passives needing to buy 1x ADV on China Shenhua Energy and selling 1.7x ADV on China Feihe.
- The change will lead to an increase in the fair value of the HSCEI 2023 dividend futures by over 3 DIPS. Could be more if China Shenhua pays a special.
KOSPI 200 Passive Flow Breakdown, Feat. NPS Size & Trade Window Pattern
- We should set the minimum level of the target size to estimate the flow impact on T-1 Effective at ₩15T from ETFs.
- We then need to pay attention to the recent trend that an additional flow from NPS appears post-Effective, with a significant portion on T+1~3.
- We should revise down our expected rate of return on our early-phase setup aiming at the preemptive trading (T-6W Effective) by NPS.
