Chapter 342: Tyranny Yihe Consortium
The last time Su Chenyu attacked Jardine Matheson Group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, it was just a tentative small attack. www.biquge.info You must know that the attack was not even a main force like X Fund, but it was a financial miscellaneous force like Tianchen Fund and EX Fund, and even a local garrison like Suning Real Estate.
However, the tentative offensive still achieved good results, and obtained a lot of outstanding shares of Jardine Matheson, which provided ammunition for this real decisive battle of large forces.
HSBC sold the shares of Jardine Matheson, without mercy at all, and the absolute knife hit the blood, which directly stunned the Jardine Group.
In the face of such a sharp attack, Jardine Matheson Strategy relied on Jardine Matheson Group to mobilize funds from several listed companies in large quantities to stabilize the stock price after playing its own "capital bullet". Even, with the huge amount of funds allocated, Jardine Matheson launched a crazy counterattack on the air force position, and once pulled the stock price back up.
The sharp fluctuation of the share price of Jardine Matheson Strategy has obviously attracted the attention of countless retail investors, and they seem to have seen the beautiful "money scene" of the share price of Jardine Matheson Strategy from halving to doubling last year. As a result, some retail investors who are not afraid rushed in, for fear that they would enter the market late and miss the last train of the stock price surge.
Driven by many retail investors, the stock price of Jardine Matheson Strategy soared again, almost recovering all lost ground, and the red is just around the corner.
I have to say that the terrible influence of the "money-making effect" and "chasing the psychology of chasing up" among retail investors, as soon as they saw the stock price of Jardine Matheson almost turned red, retail investors became even more crazy - the money in their hands was like waste paper, and they ran frantically to rush into the market.
As a result, with the joint efforts of Jardine Matheson and retail investors, at the close of midday, the stock of Jardine Matheson Strategy had turned red and rose by 13 points.
There is no doubt that the purpose of the Jardine Matheson strategy has been achieved, and they use the follow-up effect to attract retail investors to enter the market to consume the air force chips and share the pressure on the capital side. And, in the end, the strategic goal of stabilizing the stock price and even counterattacking the stock price was completed, so that Jardine Matheson Group had the bargaining chips to negotiate with HSBC.
As soon as the afternoon market closed, the chairman of Jardine Matheson called the chairman of HSBC Holding Group to ask why he had suddenly sold off Jardine Matheson Strategy and other Jardine company stocks. As the world's leading big man in the financial industry, will HSBC care about the dissatisfaction of the Jardine Matheson Group? Obviously not, as long as there is a greater interest, he will not hesitate to abandon the "son" of the Jardine Matheson Group.
However, remembering the "father-son relationship" in the past, the chairman of HSBC Holdings kindly reminded the Jardine Matheson Group that sometimes, some things should be given up, otherwise they may be destroyed.
As a company that used to be so awesome in Hong Kong and even in the whole of East Asia, who was afraid of it? What is there to give up? What can destroy me for a hundred years?
Obviously, the negotiations between Jardine Matheson and HSBC were not smooth, and they could not even be called negotiations, because the other party did not talk to him at all!
Under such circumstances, in order to maintain the share price of Jardine Matheson, Jardine Matheson Group can only continue to mobilize funds and make a last-ditch fight with the Air Force. Otherwise, the Jardine Matheson Group could only choose to temporarily avoid the bombing of the Air Force by suspending the license, but once this happened, the Jardine Matheson brand would be completely finished.
There is no choice but to bite the bullet, not to mention that now I have a huge amount of funds in my hands, and I am afraid of an egg?
In fact, the retail brothers thought the same way, and after seeing the Jedi counterattack in the morning, they were even more convinced that this was a repeat of the last one.
Hehe, in fact, yes?
Definitely not!
As soon as the afternoon opened, the wind was calm, but HSBC's selling price was getting higher and higher, and the chips in his hand were thrown out unhurriedly. Jardine Matheson's goal is certainly not to acquire more chips, but to stabilize the stock price, so it will no longer chase higher. However, as soon as HSBC saw that no one caught up with him, he pressed down again and smashed the stock price again. In desperation, Jardine Matheson had to rush up again to withstand the sell-off gap and re-stabilize the stock price.
After all, HSBC didn't have much of a stake in its hands, so it quickly sold off all its inventory.
At this point, seeing that the situation had stabilized again, Jardine Matheson could finally breathe a long sigh of relief - they knew that HSBC was running out of chips.
It's finally over!
Is that so?
In a castle in Wales, a gray-haired old man picked up the phone and relayed his orders from here to nearby London.
"Let's do it!"
At the same time, from a manor house in London, a young man and an old American man also issued their own instructions - "do it"!
For Jardine Matheson Group and all the retail investors who took over, it felt like a dog, and after just a few minutes of respite, the Jardine Matheson strategy, which had just stabilized, seemed to have taken a laxative, and the stock price fell vigorously.
And, unlike the sell-off at HSBC, this sell-off seems to be a sale of stocks in order to suppress the stock price, regardless of the cost.
Overwhelmed, dark clouds covered the top - like a tiger descending from the mountain, directly breaking through the defensive lines set by Jardine Matheson, the stock price of Jardine Matheson Strategy completely collapsed.
Like the water of the nine heavens pouring down, all obstruction and resistance are in vain, and there is only one way to go, submerged and overwhelmed!
Despair, endless despair, Jardine Matheson Group is really left with despair now, because all the bullets of the funds they have drawn have been exhausted, but the stock price has still collapsed.
The most terrifying thing is that under the leadership of the Jardine Matheson strategy, the originally prosperous London Stock Exchange changed its strength and took a sharp turn for the worse, stepping into the green spring.
Cut in half - this is the stock price of Jardine Matheson at the time of closing, a miserable stock price mixed with countless blood and tears.
The cliff-like plunge of the Jardine Matheson strategy also drove the bearish power of the entire stock market, and the investors who had previously made profits began to take profits - long shorts, and the London stock market collapsed like a foreign exchange market.
panicked, Jardine Matheson Group did panic, because after the London stock market closed, the Hong Kong, Singapore and Sydney stock markets in Asia opened one after another, without any surprise, the stock prices of Jardine Matheson Strategy and Jardine Matheson listed companies all plummeted. After the disappearance of the London stock market crash, investors chose to dump their Jardine Matheson shares and come out to avoid risk.
More critically, HSBC, Prudential, and Aviva Insurance, the three major financial giants, have successively announced that they have reduced their holdings of Jardine Matheson strategic stocks.
This Nima is simply a mending knife, and it is a mending knife that pierces the vital point, and panic spreads among the investors of Jardine Matheson's listed companies - see who can run fast.
Sure enough, as soon as the Hong Kong stock market, Singapore stock market and Sydney stock market opened, the stock price of Jardine Matheson Matheson was like a free-fall movement, plummeting in a straight line.
Jardine Matheson Group can't organize effective resistance at all, because there are not many funds in hand, and the key is that now it is not only the stock price of Jardine Matheson Strategies that has plummeted, but all the listed companies of Jardine Matheson.
A century-old foreign company, I never thought that there would be such a miserable day!
Frantically borrowing funds from several major British foreign firms such as Swire & Co., Hutchison & Co., and the Kadoorie family, in order to temporarily maintain the stock price of Jardine Matheson, the core company.
Unfortunately, several major British-funded foreign banks in Hong Kong have basically been invaded by Chinese capital, so no one wants to be traitors who help British-funded dogs. What's more, now everyone understands that there must be a "financial monster" encircling and annihilating the Jardine Group, who dares to meddle casually, for fear of getting into trouble.
Therefore, the former leader of British capital in Hong Kong finally fell into such a miserable situation - no one was willing to lend him funds on a large scale, and no one dared to lend him funds on a large scale.
Even when the Jardine Matheson Group borrowed from major multinational banks such as Barclays, Royal Bank of Scotland, Citibank, and J.P Morgan, it was also excused under various pretexts.
Obviously, the major banks have been greeted by X Fund, Prudential Insurance and Aviva Insurance, and are ready to sell this face and completely push Jardine Matheson Group to a dead end.
Like a ray of light in the darkness, when the Jardine Matheson Group borrowed from the current standard standard of the world's first bank, Mitsui Housing, it finally got a good news - it can take out a loan, but it must take some shares of subsidiaries as collateral.
Rushed to the doctor, Jardine Matheson Group was completely red for the Jardine Matheson strategy, how could there be any other care, so he readily agreed.
Soon, Jardine Matheson obtained a high-interest short-interest loan as collateral for all the shares of Hongkong Land and Jardine Pacific as collateral in accordance with the requirements of Standard Chartered-Mitsui Sumitomo Bank.
With the hard-won funds, Jardine Matheson Group rushed into the stock market, and it has to be said that capital is still king in the stock market, and the stock price of Jardine Matheson Strategy was quickly stabilized.
Don't think that this is the end of the matter, this is just the beginning, because Jardine Matheson has already stepped into the deep pit dug for him by Su Chenyu.
Let's ask today's financial world, who can compare to the "financial monster" of X Fund than cash, not to mention that there is a "cash cow dad" standard Standard Chartered - Mitsui Lives has the support of the bank behind him.
Finally, Fund X made a move - 20% of the shares continued to be shorted, not to mention the small funds of Jardine Group, even if there were so many of them, it was not enough to see it!
The stock price of Jardine Matheson, which had just stabilized, was once again cut to the ground, and then it was cut in half, and the most painful thing was that the funds that Jardine Matheson Group had just rushed into were suddenly trapped, and the trapped chips on it were like a mountain.
Despair, this time utter despair, give up - yes, the Jardine Matheson Group had no choice but to give up after being beaten violently!
At this moment, two takeover offers were placed in front of Jardine Matheson......
