Chapter 228: Wishful thinking

On the other side of the ocean in the United States, on March 13, the front page of the Wall Street Journal was William Flynn, a nearly 60-year-old barber who lived in Bill Barbershop in Dennis Township, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where President Kennedy and Jacqueline had made a relationship.

He is a tech stock freak who always puts the relevant information he has sorted out on the bulletin board in the store, so he has attracted many like-minded people, making his barbershop the most lively investment forum in Cape Cod, and many people come to his place to spend ten dollars on a haircut and exchange information by the way.

Just like the frenzied investment stock market trend in China in 08, when the aunts danced the square dance, they were also exchanging experience in stock trading.

At this time, the United States was also fanatical, and even the shoeshine children on the street set up investment masters.

Thanks to the frenzy of Internet and high-tech stocks driven by Netscape since its IPO in '95, these retail investors, who have neither investment experience nor reliable news channels, have followed the trend into the stocks of technology companies based on their own judgment and street news, but fools have foolish fortunes, and most of them have been rewarded with a lot of money.

For example, the initiator of the forum, Fernandes, has invested as much as $834,000 in his retirement fund, and such a small person has appeared on the front page of the most influential newspaper in the United States because his experience is the best embodiment of the "American dream" that the United States has hyped up.

If there is a regret pill, if there is a time shuttle, Feng Yiping thinks, those senior editors on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, if they could have predicted what would happen on the 13th, they would definitely not use this person as the front page.

On the day the Internet bubble burst, the headlines on the front page were just to promote a figure who profited from the bubble and advocate the bright future of the Internet industry, which is exactly what Bao Zhuoyuan has been worried and worried about these days, and slapped himself in the face.

Hong Kong is a place where entertainment is paramount, and at a time when many people are paying attention to the turmoil in US tech stocks, many newspapers in Hong Kong made headlines on Tuesday. is still the "Fengfei Love" that was disclosed last weekend.

Just the next day, both protagonists have public activities, the man attends a press conference, and the woman is going to Japan to receive the award. When asked by reporters, the man denied it, and the woman avoided talking about it, but the other people present. The fact that the two of them "met" that night was proven.

In fact, it is also understandable that everyone is enthusiastic about this matter, this golden boy of the same age as Feng Yiping, if he falls in love with a jade girl of the same age, it is news, but it is definitely not as sensational as falling in love with a diva who is 11 years older than him, that is, nearly a round of divas.

On this day, the print media, television and the Internet, the so-called experts and professors who are concerned about this issue. are emphasizing that this is just an adjustment of the stock market after it reaches a high level, and there is no need to interpret it too much.

Feng Yiping hates these people the most, they may have dealt with or are dealing with related investments, but they are still making a big fuss here, there is only one reason, if a large number of retail investors also sell with them, then where to find the next successor?

Later, a series of measures were introduced for celebrity endorsements. Feng Yiping feels that what is more urgent and necessary than rectifying celebrity endorsements is to rectify these big-mouthed brick family beasts.

Especially in the hinterland, television and regular publishing of serious publications. In the minds of the people, it still has a quite authoritative position, and everyone knows that there must be exaggerated elements in advertising, but those bricks who talk eloquently in various columns are called beasts. Because of the authority of the platform, their words will really affect many people, and the cost of this impact is not comparable to those who have the motivation to buy after watching the advertisement.

However, the experts are, fooling a part of the general public, those institutions have their own judgment, will not listen to their advocacy, as the institutions continue to sell, many retail investors also start to sell from the sidelines, after all, everyone knows, action, has always been more convincing than words.

Most of the time, these things are very empty words, and they are even more excuses used by some experts, professors and politicians to whitewash and justify themselves.

However, at some specific times, these things seem to be quantifiable, such as confidence, in the stock market, confidence can be embodied in a buy order or a sell order, the amount of up to tens of billions of dollars, and finally summarized and reflected in the stock market index.

At the end of last year, the market value exceeded that of the three major automobile companies in the United States, and not only the market value of the Internet giants exceeded 100 billion US dollars, but also hardware manufacturers such as Cisco, which specializes in the production of network equipment, as well as software manufacturers, consulting companies, hosting manufacturers, hosting companies, advertising companies and other .......

In this era of "global village" proposed by the popularization and development of the Internet, at least one thing is true, the relationship between various industries is indeed closer than before, and if there is a problem, there will be a domino-like effect.

For example, if an Internet company successfully IPO on NASDAQ, if it raises $100 million, at least 5 million of them will be used to hire consultants, 10 million will be invested in Yahoo or AOL advertising, 5 million will be invested in software providers, and several million will be used to buy hardware such as computers and colocation.

When Internet companies are cold, these affiliates will naturally catch a cold.

Therefore, on the 14th, there were experts and professors who dared to fool and say that this was the adjustment of the stock market itself, which was normal, but on the 15th, no one dared to say so.

Because the market opened at 9:30 in the morning, investors from all walks of life who lost confidence rushed to sell all kinds of high-tech and related stocks, and by the time the market closed at 4:30 in the afternoon, the Nasdaq Composite Index was fixed at 4180 points.

In just three days, it has lost nearly 900 points from the highest point last weekend!

It's good to make money like this, especially to make money like this, it's really wonderful!

Although Feng Yiping doesn't like to drink red wine, let alone red wine, when he knew the result on the 16th Beijing time, he still pretended to be thirteen and ordered a bottle to celebrate, otherwise, he couldn't express his excitement and excitement.

Although Huang Jingping didn't know much about this, as long as Feng Yiping was happy, she was happy, "How many days are we going to stay here?

"You don't have to go to the magazine, Lao Bao knows what to do. We're going to stay until at least next week, and in addition to that, we're going to have to prepare for the investment company these days,"

Feng Yiping remembers that at this time next year, the Nasdaq finally fell to a trough of only more than 1,000 points, and for such a long time, he needs someone to help him keep an eye on it, in addition, the price of oil in the international market has risen sharply this year, and there are many opportunities in it.

In addition, according to his arrangement and division of labour, the financial and investment sector, which provides financial flows to other areas, is the one that needs to be strengthened the most, and the time has come to implement this plan.

Regarding this Internet bubble, in fact, there is a very contradictory place, that is, although by today's standards, these Internet companies have a big bubble and their value is seriously overvalued, but the companies that have survived this round of crisis, judging from their current stock prices in ten years' development, are actually not overvalued in the eyes, but are seriously undervalued.

Therefore, Feng Yiping's wishful thinking is to take advantage of this round of market to make some money, and then use the money earned on them to buy their stocks when the stock prices of these companies fall to the bottom next year.

This kind of thing doesn't seem to be very authentic to say, but he is really happy to do it.

Jin Ling walked very lightly today, although she didn't ask Feng Yiping, but judging from the situation in the past two days, her favorite Ferrari should not have much problem, so when she received Feng Yiping's call, her attitude was quite correct.

However, Feng Yiping's words made her a little unhappy, "Sister Jin, I think you have to change your travel plan, don't go to France this summer!" )
