This week in StubWorld ...



A change of pace with two infrequently discussed stubs in unwind territory: 
News Corp (NWSA US)  / REA Group Ltd (REA AU), and Jafco Co Ltd (8595 JP) / Nomura Research Institute Ltd (4307 JP).
and ...
two lesser-known stubs in set-up territory:  Iljin Holdings (015860 KS) / Iljin Electric (103590 KS), and Sakata Inx Corp (4633 JP)  / Siix Corp (7613 JP).



Preceding my comments on these holding company relationships are the weekly setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.


These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity threshold of US$1mn on a 90-day moving average, and a % market capitalisation threshold - the $ value of the holding/opco held, over the parent’s market capitalisation, expressed in percent - of at least 20%.


As always, more below the fold.
