Chapter Ninety-Seven, the Sudden Change of the Situation
Chapter Ninety-Seven, the Sudden Change of the Situation
The joy brought by the Spring Festival Gala has not yet dissipated, and the news of the outbreak of new crown pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei Province came on TV. This is the first explosive bad news after the New Year. Zuo Yuliang's consciousness jumped out of the idea that the stock index was estimated to fall sharply at the opening.
Judging from Zuo Yuliang's stock trading experience, there is an outbreak of influenza every spring, but the previous flu was mostly aimed at other animals, but this influenza is directly aimed at living humans, and it is violent. The African swine fever a year ago had just passed, and it caused the domestic pork price to skyrocket, and the original ten pieces of pork rose to thirty or forty pieces at once. Zuo Yuliang, who is already fond of a piece of meat for every meal, when he goes to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, he hears the most words: Those who can afford to eat pork are all local tyrants.
Of course, what Zuo Yuliang felt the most was that it was also a hundred yuan in his pocket, and he could buy a table of dishes before, but now he can buy few things. Reality tells Zuo Yuliang that the purchasing power of this money is also plummeting! This is indeed a problem, Zuo Yuliang thinks this every time he finishes buying vegetables.
Fortunately, pork is expensive, so you can choose to eat less or not at all, which is nothing more than trying to control your desire to eat meat. But today's new crown pneumonia is directly aimed at people, this is not a problem of eating one or two pieces of meat less, if it is not done well, it will kill people in a large area, do you say fear is not afraid! The scene of fighting SARS in previous years is still vivid, and now there is another new crown pneumonia, which makes Zuo Yuliang can't help but think that this year of the rat is really a "epidemic"!
The festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival was suddenly diluted by a plague. After the Spring Festival, most of the next programs on TV will revolve around the festive programs of the Lantern Festival family reunion to eat the Lantern Festival, but this year's festive atmosphere seems to have a much lighter taste, and people pay more attention to how the epidemic situation in Wuhan is developing, whether it is under control, and other worrying epidemic prevention issues.
Immediately afterwards, disturbing news followed, and Wuhan implemented a "lockdown" policy. As soon as he learned the news, Zuo Yuliang immediately thought of the stock market, it seems that this epidemic is really unusual, and it may be even more powerful than the previous SARS virus. When the stock market opens, there is a good chance that it will fall, and it is estimated that it will still be that kind of "flash fall"! Who let this news be a kind of sudden, unguardable and extremely bearish news!
In the past, when SARS happened, it was said that the SARS virus was afraid of high temperatures and could not see the sun, but it was really, with the rise in temperature, the virus that affected the nerves of thousands of Chinese people was successfully contained. However, during the outbreak of the virus, the vast southern region was experiencing cooling and rainy weather, and the cold and wet environment contributed to the ravaging of the virus. It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and even God followed to help. Originally, God may have been ruthless, otherwise the poem "If the sky is loved, the sky will be old" would have come true.
Zuo Yuliang and his stockholders, who were looking forward to starting to get a red envelope after the holiday, were waiting for the "first-level epidemic response" policy issued by the state to the new crown epidemic, and what followed was also the news that the stock market was delayed. All of a sudden, all parts of the country, from rural to urban, began to respond to and implement a national action to fight the epidemic, locking down the city and closing the village. In practice, Zuo Yuliang's community has also implemented a strict entry and exit isolation management system, although they have not yet been infected with the new crown pneumonia. But prevention has become a consensus. As soon as the state issued an order, all parts of the country immediately took action, which shows the strength of the state policy and the unity of the people! This made Zuo Yuliang feel once again what kind of shocking organization and discipline are! What kind of difficulties in the world cannot be overcome with this kind of organization and discipline? It seems that the new crown pneumonia has really found the people of the country, and it is really in the wrong place!
Zuo Yuliang's most concerned content on TV has gradually shifted from the original stock market to the singing and crying stories of people in the medical and logistics departments fighting the epidemic. In particular, Wuhan City, an epidemic area, has become the focus of everyone's attention. Therefore, under the influence of the epidemic prevention policy of all people, Zuo Yuliang truly experienced the unity of a people's epidemic prevention war.
A hospital was built in ten days, and Thunder God Mountain was on fire, and Fire God Mountain was also on fire. In addition to the speed and efficiency of the hospital construction praised by everyone on the Internet, Zuo Yuliang saw the difficulties hidden behind the construction of the hospital. He saw the workers working day and night on the construction site, whether they were staffed or not, whether they were regular workers or temporary workers, they all shouldered their share of responsibility with their hard-working figures and hard backbones, and they were responsible for the rise and fall of the world in the face of the epidemic! Zuo Yuliang felt that in the face of the epidemic, being willing to pay that is a kind of greatness!
Zuo Yuliang also saw those medical workers who stood at the forefront of the epidemic, including the post-70s, post-80s, post-90s, and many old-timers and medical giants, who were not afraid of the epidemic, charging ahead, demonstrating in the front, and using their strong or thin bodies to jointly cast the Great Wall of steel for the benevolence of doctors. For thousands of years, whenever the people of the country were in a moment of crisis, the backbone of the nation once again raised their strong chests to resist the boundless risks. This greatness shocked Zuo Yuliang, and he was deeply proud of the country to have these medical staff who were willing to dedicate!
Zuo Yuliang also saw the strength of the country's ability to build the country. To build a hospital in ten days, it is not simply to build a house, but to have all the relevant facilities and equipment, from drawing design to local construction, to equipment procurement and installation, to the stationing of medical personnel. Behind this, it may all depend on the country's rapid development of the economy and complete industrial structure, as well as the continuous improvement and progress of the level of medical science and technology! This shows that behind all this, there is a strong motherland to rely on!
Of course, Zuo Yuliang also saw the greatness and wisdom of the decision-makers, the epidemic is an order, and there is no trivial matter in front of the epidemic, and it is this kind of decision of attention and investment that has allowed the epidemic in Wuhan to be controlled in a short period of time, and the dark clouds that linger in the hearts of the people in the epidemic area can be gradually resolved. Coupled with other saved helpers, one side is in difficulty, and with the help of support from all sides, the battle against the epidemic can be rapidly advanced. It prevented the rapid spread of the epidemic to the whole country. Every time Zuo Yuliang thinks of this, he slowly feels a sense of pride in the country and the people. He really couldn't figure out if those people who ran abroad all day long had been kicked in the head by a donkey.
Of course, Zuo Yuliang didn't say that going abroad was bad, he just felt that those who went abroad but forgot their roots really had a problem with their heads! Especially those who made money from the countrymen, but licked the ass of foreigners, they were not annoying, they were simply hateful!
With the continuous development and severity of the epidemic, the original planned opening time of the stock market has also been postponed. Although Zuo Yuliang knows that the stock market will definitely fall sharply when it opens, and it is best not to open the market when the epidemic in Wuhan is not under control, but in his heart, he still hopes that the day when the stock market opens will come sooner, after all, as the old saying goes, what should come will come, and you can't hide by hiding. Finally, in Zuo Yuliang's expectation, the stock market, which had been delayed for a few days, opened for trading in the context of national epidemic prevention. Fortunately, with the advancement of science and technology, trading can be carried out online, which makes shareholders like Zuo Yuliang who stay at home every day have something to do. From this point of view, Zuo Yuliang feels that scientific and technological progress is indeed a good thing, and he has given people one more way and method to participate in labor in times of crisis.
As Zuo Yuliang expected, the stock index trend after the market opened can be said to be a sudden change. After the stock index opened, it changed the trend of the slow pullback before the holiday, and as soon as it made a move, it was a sharp dive, followed by a thousand shares falling limit. The decline of more than two white points suddenly shattered the expectations of the majority of shareholders to open the door to receive red envelopes, but it fell properly to the point that people doubted their lives.
Most of the individual stocks were firmly sealed on the fall limit board in a short time after opening, and this panicked scene reminded Zuo Yuliang of the tragedy of the stock market when he deleveraged two years ago. Although Zuo Yuliang judged that the stock market would definitely fall at the opening, he did not expect that it would be such an extreme decline method of 1,000 shares. In desperation, Zuo Yuliang thought of a well-known sentence in the stock market: Whatever appears in the market is right. Since the opening does not appear in common sense, there must be a profound reason behind it. This had to make Zuo Yuliang think deeply. There must be a demon in everything impermanence! One is the behavior of retail investors, and the other is the deliberate behavior of the main force!
Originally, according to Zuo Yuliang's judgment, the Shanghai Composite Index has not risen much in the past few years. For many years, it has been mainly based on adjusting the pattern, even if some leading stocks have doubled or even risen more sharply, most stocks are still in a slow downward correction pattern. That is to say, today's killing and falling is largely a panic action caused by negative news, and everyone selling stocks is an irrational behavior of cutting meat and stopping losses. When everyone understands, the stock index will inevitably rebound. This made Zuo Yuliang immediately realize that the next opportunity to buy the bottom may appear again.
On the first day of the opening of the market, most stocks were already hopeless, and the situation of 1,000 shares falling to the limit continued until the close. Looking at the stocks on the fall limit, Zuo Yuliang had a whim, for the stocks on the fall limit, all the participating investors, whether they are the main force or retail investors, are standing on the same starting line, and everyone is suffering losses together, which can be described as a glory and a loss!
Can this extreme pattern be sustained? When the market opens tomorrow, there will be changes, Zuo Yuliang's intuition told him.
