Link – Algo Buy

Link Administration Holdings is now under Algo Engine buy conditions.

Link Administration Holdings Limited (ASX: LNK) (Link Group) refers to its announcement dated 7 December 2020 advising that it had received a conditional, non-binding indicative proposal from SS&C Technology Holdings (SS&C) to acquire 100% of the shares in Link Group
(SS&C Proposal).

On 3 January 2021, Link Group received a letter from SS&C stating it has withdrawn its SS&C
Proposal.

The Link Group Board will continue to consider all alternatives to maximise value for shareholders. As previously announced, this includes a potential separation by way of demerger of Link Group’s interest in Torrens Group Holdings (TGH) (and its core asset, PEXA).

Link Group will also explore a trade sale of its interest in TGH from 18 January 2021.

US Earnings Review 2021

Investors will be anxious to see whether upcoming quarterly reports and outlooks from U.S. companies validate expectations for a strong 2021 & 2022 rebound in S&P 500 earnings.

U.S. banks begin reporting fourth-quarter results tomorrow and headlines could show profits plunged by as much as 40% from the same time last year.

The 40% growth priced into equities from 2020 to 2022 seems overly optimistic, especially if bank profits from trading and investing activities begin to taper off.
