The most interesting observation about Midea for us this reporting season is that since the national team liquidated most of their holdings, Midea is one of two private companies that Huijin choose to keep. Why? One can only speculate, but having the long term track record to zero an entire global industry probably has something to do with it: just check the share price of $WHR or $ELUX.ST

$GDOT is a cheap bank turnaround hiding inside a fintech story. Trades at ~0.75x TBV with a new management team, an under-earning asset base to fix, and peers well above book. ~30% upside with decent downside protection. Full pitch on SSI👇 https://t.co/QkuJlDJK9N
