Request: Use the project archivist workflow to update IPO target coverage for the most recent three-year window. Changes: - Add scripts/update_recent_ipo_list.py to discover HKEXnews annual new listing reports, archive XLSX sources, parse subscription-relevant IPO rows, and update SQLite plus snapshots. - Add new_listing_report_entries to preserve annual report row-level evidence. - Archive 2023-2026 Main Board new listing reports and 2024-2026 GEM new listing reports. - Seed 290 report-backed IPO targets for 2023-06-15 through 2026-06-15, skipping 10 non-IPO rows without numeric offer prices. - Refresh ipo_master, missing offering_terms fields, source_refs, ticker_sync_state, and sync_tasks. - Add openpyxl as the XLSX parser dependency and document the archivist refresh flow. - Limit sync summary output while keeping the full queue in SQLite and CSV snapshots. Verification: - Ran update_recent_ipo_list.py for 2023-06-15 to 2026-06-15 with as-of 2026-06-15T07:30:00Z. - Parsed project Python scripts with ast.parse. - Checked SQLite integrity and DB-to-snapshot row counts. - Verified source_refs paths are repo-relative, files exist, and SHA-256 hashes match. - Ran git diff --check and git diff --cached --check. - Checked for Python cache and SQLite transient files. Next useful context: - ipo_master now has 293 tickers; new_listing_report_entries has 290 report-backed targets. - Current sync queue has 2005 open tasks and 42 waiting_until_due tasks for deeper per-ticker archival stages.

# HK IPO
|
|
|
|
HK IPO is a project for building a repeatable, auditable research workflow for Hong Kong new listing subscription decisions.
|
|
|
|
The project is designed around a feedback loop:
|
|
|
|
1. Archive IPO facts and source documents.
|
|
2. Freeze the analysis that was possible at each decision stage.
|
|
3. Compare predictions with post-listing outcomes.
|
|
4. Improve the scoring rules only from reviewed evidence.
|
|
|
|
## Goals
|
|
|
|
- Maintain a local, Git-tracked history of Hong Kong IPO data.
|
|
- Separate factual archiving from investment judgment.
|
|
- Keep every subscription decision tied to the information available at that time.
|
|
- Review actual IPO outcomes against prior predictions.
|
|
- Build a better IPO scoring process through structured error attribution.
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
Each IPO is evaluated by stage:
|
|
|
|
- `T0_prospectus`: prospectus and offer terms only.
|
|
- `T1_allotment`: allotment results, public subscription, placing, allocation, and final pricing.
|
|
- `T2_grey_market`: grey-market result and immediate pre-listing context.
|
|
- `D1`, `D5`, `D20`, `D60`: post-listing review checkpoints.
|
|
|
|
The key discipline is to avoid hindsight leakage. A T0 prediction should only use T0 information, even after the IPO has listed.
|
|
|
|
## Project Skills
|
|
|
|
This repository includes project-local Codex skills under `.codex/skills/`.
|
|
|
|
### `archivist`
|
|
|
|
Owns facts and source control:
|
|
|
|
- archive prospectuses, allotment results, listing facts, and market data;
|
|
- record source URLs, as-of timestamps, repo-relative paths, and file hashes;
|
|
- update the embedded SQLite database;
|
|
- export Git-friendly CSV snapshots.
|
|
|
|
It does not make investment recommendations.
|
|
|
|
### `analyst`
|
|
|
|
Owns IPO judgment and review:
|
|
|
|
- produce T0/T1/T2 prediction cards;
|
|
- score IPO candidates;
|
|
- compare multiple IPOs;
|
|
- write research memos and review cards;
|
|
- classify forecast errors;
|
|
- recommend scoring-rule updates.
|
|
|
|
It should use archived facts when available and keep prediction cards append-only.
|
|
|
|
## Storage Model
|
|
|
|
The project is intended to be self-contained and portable across machines. Durable paths should always be relative to the repository root.
|
|
|
|
Expected layout:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
data/
|
|
hk_ipo.sqlite
|
|
raw/
|
|
snapshots/
|
|
memos/
|
|
reports/
|
|
rules/
|
|
schema/
|
|
scripts/
|
|
references/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Path rules:
|
|
|
|
- store paths like `data/raw/06658/prospectus.pdf`;
|
|
- do not store absolute paths;
|
|
- do not store paths with a leading `./`;
|
|
- use POSIX `/` separators;
|
|
- store file hashes for archived source documents when practical.
|
|
|
|
SQLite is the embedded source of structured facts. CSV snapshots provide readable Git diffs. Markdown memos preserve the reasoning at each decision point.
|
|
|
|
## PDF Text Extraction
|
|
|
|
Archived PDFs can be converted into searchable text files:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 -m venv .venv
|
|
.venv/bin/python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
.venv/bin/python scripts/extract_pdf_text.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The extractor reads PDF paths from `data/hk_ipo.sqlite`, writes derived text files under `data/extracted_text/`, and exports `data/snapshots/extracted_text_manifest.csv` with page counts, text hashes, and extraction status.
|
|
|
|
## Recent IPO Target Refresh
|
|
|
|
Use HKEXnews annual new listing reports to seed recent subscription-relevant IPO targets:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
.venv/bin/python scripts/update_recent_ipo_list.py --start-date 2023-06-15 --end-date 2026-06-15 --as-of 2026-06-15T07:30:00Z
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The updater archives the HKEXnews XLSX reports under `data/raw/hkex_new_listing_reports/`, records report-backed source references, writes `new_listing_report_entries`, updates `ipo_master` and missing `offering_terms` fields, exports CSV snapshots, and refreshes `sync_tasks`.
|
|
|
|
Rows without an IPO offer price, such as transfers of listing, introductions, or de-SPAC transactions, are skipped by default because they are not ordinary public subscription targets.
|
|
|
|
## Incremental Archive Sync
|
|
|
|
The archivist keeps a per-ticker sync ledger so repeated updates can focus on missing stages:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 scripts/update_sync_state.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This writes `ticker_sync_state` and `sync_tasks` into `data/hk_ipo.sqlite`, then exports `data/snapshots/ticker_sync_state.csv`, `data/snapshots/sync_tasks.csv`, and `data/snapshots/sync_runs.csv`.
|
|
|
|
Use `sync_tasks` as the next-sync queue. Tasks marked `open` are due now; tasks marked `waiting_until_due` are known future updates.
|
|
|
|
## Git Discipline
|
|
|
|
The repository uses automatic focused commits for completed project changes.
|
|
|
|
Before committing, check that unrelated dirty files are not included and that generated durable files use repo-relative paths.
