Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>In the past week, one of the biggest stories in the Korean e-commerce/logistics market has been the entrance of JD Logistics into the South Korean market.</li>
<li>We believe that the ongoing tariff war between the US and China is likely to have accelerated this move by JD Logistics to find new markets for its products. </li>
<li>If JD.com/JD Logistics decide to expand aggressively in Korea, the major Korean e-commerce players (such as Coupang (CPNG US), Naver Corp (035420 KS), Gmarket, and 11st) may be negatively impacted.</li>
