Virus #’s in HK continue to moderate (Rt to 0.6 today!!).  I was @ Hysan portf on Saturday & saw multiple (spaced) queues as people waited for stores to open.  62% disc to NAV is 2std dev wider than avg since 2011. 6.3% div yld.  Base rent reversions were positive for office (low teens).  Occupancy steady vs May, 94% retail, 96% office.  Office contribution now greater than retail. 

 

 

Finally:  Is virtual reality the future of remote working? Video conferencing alone has its limits. We can’t see or touch anything, can’t go anywhere together as a group, & can’t interact in a way that seems remotely genuine. Virtual reality cld chnge that - & quickly. By creating a virtual location to explore, handing each other documents, working on a project that involves virtual tools or holding up a prototype, walking around a new building & inspecting the design, or interacting in other ways, VR cld be the 1 thing that makes remote work & stay-at-home office interactions more seamless.  W/ VR, you cld decide to meet together anyway - virtually. In what looks like an exact replica of the conference room you normally use, everyone appears to be sitting at a table. It means you can’t hear the kids playing in the other room b/c you are wearing a headset but also b/c you can only see the conference room. What would this do for physical office demand!!  (Tech Radar

Li Ka Shing Foundation bought total 800,000 CK Asset shrs @ avg HK$41.3669/sh Aug 7. Li Ka-shing’s stake in CK Asset to 35.32% from 35.30%, Victor Li’s stake to 35.39% from 35.37%. (Co)  Clearly the family think the stock is cheap here, though they are now close to their creeping limit.  I maintain a company buyback would be a good idea, with cost of debt below cost of equity.  In HK you must cancel bought back shares as soon as is practically possible.  This would drive EPS, DPS & NAV/share accretion, benefiting all shareholders & would also boost the Li family holding. Its like buying CKA’s assets, at wider than half price.  Seems like a simple risk/reward equation to me.  Surely this would be better for everyone.  We have selling in this name again today.
