PCCW Ltd (8 HK) was trading at an unjustifiable premium to NAV at the time of my last report back in August. Now it's even more unjustifiable. 
Preceding my comments on PCCW/HKT Ltd (6823 HK), and Softbank Group (9984 JP)/ARM Holdings (ARM US), are the current setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.
These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity of US$1mn, and a % market capitalisation &gt;20%.
