1386 [Pig Teammates]
In the morning, Summer came back from a run and had breakfast with Wang Zhengxian. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Just then, the phone rang again.
Summer was stunned for a moment, walked over and picked up the phone.
"Boss, good news!" Liang Bo shouted excitedly, his voice bursting.
"What's the good news?" Xia couldn't help but ask curiously when she heard this. I don't know what kind of good news it will make him so excited.
"Li Fuzhao, chairman of the Stock Exchange, has just announced that on the 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd, the stock market and futures market will be suspended for four consecutive days!" Liang Botao shouted.
"What?!" Summer couldn't help but widen her eyes after hearing this, "Really?!"
"Really, really, really!" Liang Botao said affirmatively.
"Wow, then we're going to die this time!" said Summer, who was also happy to keep his mouth shut.
Last night, he was also looking forward to the appearance of a pig teammate in the Hong Kong stock market, and God opened his eyes, and sure enough, he sent a pig teammate.
The stock market was closed for four consecutive days, plus the market was closed on Saturdays and Sundays, which means that during this week, the stocks in the hands of shareholders can no longer be traded.
Although Li Fuzhao's move was said to calm down the market, to be honest, he not only failed to calm down the market, but also made the stockholders, who were already frightened, even more panicked.
Because the stock market is closed and cannot be traded, the stock is no different from waste paper. Once the stock market reopens, investors are bound to sell off the market, and the Hong Kong stock market will definitely fall. When the time comes, buy low, take advantage of the fire to rob, and you will earn more.
"Oh, it's really beautiful, Li Fuzhao is simply my God of Wealth!" said happily in the summer.
……
Li Fuzhao is the chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and a well-known figure in Hong Kong's business community, and his history of prestige could be written in a book.
Li Fuzhao was born in a wealthy family in Hong Kong, and his grandfather Li Shipeng is a well-known wealthy businessman in Hong Kong, operating and distributing a trading house, and is the largest rice merchant in Hong Kong. His father, Li Guanchun, is the founder of the Bank of East Asia.
Since the age of six, Li Fuzhao has been involved in stocks. When I grew up, I was even more devoted to stock speculation, known as a stock idiot, and my biggest dream was to be a stock broker.
But in the 60s, there was only one Hong Kong stock exchange on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and it was all controlled by white people, and there were very few Chinese. The number of brokerage members is limited to 60 people, and it is difficult for other newcomers to be among them, even if they have money.
Of course, Li Fuzhao was not convinced, so he joined hands with his peers to establish the Far Eastern Exchange. Founded in '69, the trading volume surpassed that of the Hong Kong Club in '71 and became the largest stock exchange in Hong Kong.
In '71, the Gold and Silver Stock Exchange was established, and in '72, the Kowloon Stock Exchange was established. Hong Kong has four stock exchanges.
The establishment of the four stock exchanges has enabled many high-quality Chinese-funded companies that have been rejected by the Hong Kong Congress to go public and raise funds. But at the same time, it also makes some companies that lack qualifications fish in troubled waters and get involved.
For example, the well-known Hong Kong antenna company said that after installing the antennas they produce, they could receive all the TV stations in Hong Kong.
Shareholders don't know the roots, and they are chasing after them. Its stock price was set at one yuan when it was listed, and it skyrocketed to 50 yuan on the day of listing, an appreciation of as much as 49 times.
But then it was discovered that they didn't need their antenna, and even with an ordinary iron bar, they could receive a TV signal. Hong Kong antenna has become a joke, and its soaring and plummeting stock price has also been scolded as "Hong Kong's idiot".
After the stock market crash in '73, the Hong Kong stock market was hit hard, and the public also stayed away from stocks, and the trading volume dropped significantly, and even within three years, only five new companies were listed to raise funds.
In view of this situation, Li Fuzhao called on the four major stock exchanges to unite. With the support and promotion of the Hong Kong government, in 80, the United Trading Company was formally established. However, because of the subsequent Sino-British negotiations, Hong Kong stocks plummeted and the market was bleak, which delayed the opening of the United Exchange.
It was not until 86 that the Stock Exchange with Li Fuzhao as the chairman was officially established, and since then, there have been no four associations in Hong Kong, and only one stock exchange remains.
As the chairman of the Stock Exchange, Li Fuzhao has a lot of power in his hands, and it can be said that even Li Jiacheng, Huo Yingdong, Bao Yugang and others have to respect him.
In the well-known wireless TV series "The Great Era", Chen Wanxian, the chairman of the Chinese Stock Exchange, played by the veteran drama bone Jiang Yi, is said to be Li Fuzhao.
……
"How could Li Fuzhao come up with such a bad idea as suspending the market?" asked Liang Botao in confusion.
"Maybe Li Fuzhao is doing it with his own desires, after all, in addition to being the chairman of the Stock Exchange, he also has a number of listed companies under his umbrella. Liang Botao guessed, "Maybe he is selfless and really wants to give a chance to calm down the shareholders." Who can say for sure? ”
"Well, whatever his intentions, I'm not optimistic about the development of the stock market anyway. Xia smiled slightly, "There should be some declines in the future." ”
"It should be. Liang Botao nodded.
"Okay, let's not talk about it for now, I'll eat first. Let's talk more about it when we get back to the company. Summer laughed.
After hanging up the phone, summer returns to the dining table.
"Brother Tian, is there any good news?" Wang Qixian couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw that there was a smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
"Yes, I just received the news that in the next four days, the Hong Kong stock market will be closed and cannot be traded. Summer nodded, "That's great news." ”
"How can this be good news?" Wang Qixian said with some confusion, she really didn't know much about the stock market.
"For example, would you rather flee with cash in times of war, or would you rather exchange cash for gold?" asked Summer.
"With gold, of course. Gold is worth all the time, but cash can easily turn to waste. I heard my grandfather say that during the civil war, the government had to print millions of dollars to buy a box of matches. Wang Qixian replied immediately.
"That's it. Now is the stock market crash, for the shareholders is a time of chaos, no one knows how long the stock market crash lasts, how fierce the trouble, of course, I hope to exchange these stocks for cash is more reliable. Summer nodded and said, "But now that the stock market is closed, just like banks stop exchanging cash for gold, do you think stockholders can not panic?"
When the time comes, the stock market will resume, and these people will inevitably sell off their stocks. At that time, the stock market is bound to fall sharply, which will be even more beneficial to us. Do you understand?"
"Ah, I see. Wang Jixian blinked, then nodded.
"Clever!" Xia smiled, "Okay, you can eat, I'll go back to the company first." ”
"Oh. ”
……
When I returned to the company in the summer, I saw Liang Botao half-leaning on a chair and yawning, with black coffee in front of him, and the ashtray was full of cigarette butts.
"Bo Tao, seeing that you are tired, let's go sleep first. Seeing this, Summer couldn't help but shake her head.
"No need, wait a little longer, the Tokyo stock market will be in full swing. Liang Botao waved his hand.
"You're like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it, it's better to rest for a while. After all, no matter how much money you make, you have to have a life to spend it. Summer persuaded.
"It's okay, I'm in a great physique right now, even if I don't sleep for a day or two, I won't be able to break down. Liang Botao said with a smile, "By the way, Mr. Xia, yesterday the Dow Jones Industrial Index plummeted from 2,246 points to 1,738 points, a drop of 22 percent, and the Nasdaq index fell by 11 percent. ”
"General Motors is down 33 percent, Telegraph and Telephone is down 29 percent, Coca-Cola is down 36 percent, Westinghouse is down 45 percent, Amex is down 38 percent, and Boeing is down 29 percent...... Nearly 500 billion dollars evaporated in a single day. ”
"Oh my God!" Summer couldn't help but exclaim when she heard it.
$500 billion in the '80s was not a small amount. France's GDP for the whole of last year was only $500 billion.
"Mr. Xia, it's a good thing that you didn't listen to my advice to speculate on the futures index, otherwise it would be really dangerous," Liang Botao said with palpitations.
"How?" asked Summer curiously.
"Yesterday at 2 p.m. US time, the Dow Jones index soared to 350 points, surpassing the 2,000-point mark. But then the follow-up was weak, and it fell sharply by 250 points. Liang Botao explained, still afraid to talk about it now.
Summer nodded.
Knowing that speculation refers to this is the case, the risk is quite large. Coupled with leveraged speculation, the risk will continue to magnify. And even if the speculation wins, once it exceeds the ability of the guarantee company to bear and the company goes bankrupt, the speculation will not get the money.
On the contrary, it is better to acquire those high-quality assets and high-quality listed companies cheaply. The risk is small, and the profit is also high.
In the summer, I have already fallen in love with several listed companies, but it has been difficult to start, and this is the opportunity.
