On the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, AMD's stock price collapsed and reached the edge of $2.
On May 3rd, at 23:00 in the evening, the lights were still on in Mu Shuang's office on the 38th floor of the Jade Building, the temporary headquarters of Dream Entertainment Company.
In the office, Shi Lei found a comfortable position on the leather sofa in the business meeting area, leaned on the sofa, and exchanged information with Yizuer through his mobile phone, mainly to learn about the world of brave people.
Mu Shuang sat on an ergonomic office chair, looking at the computer monitor with concentration, operating the mouse and keyboard, and began to test AMD stocks on a small scale through the Nasdaq trading market.
On the Nasdaq stock exchange, the average daily trading volume of AMD's shares is about 15 million shares. Due to the abnormal fluctuations in ABRD's stock price today, the trading volume is larger, and the stock market is full of shares for sale.
Sell order.
Mu Shuang chipped away at the 20-price sell orders little by little, and in just one hour, she had quietly earned 10 million shares.
In the past, if the trading volume of 10 million shares accounted for two-thirds of a day's trading volume, it would definitely attract attention. However, it will not happen today!
ABRD's stock price plummeted 1. The trading volume on the market has exceeded 30 million shares, with Mu Shuang only accounting for one-third.
However, after receiving 10 million shares, AMD's stock suddenly rose by 2 cents, reaching a price of US$203 per share, thanks to the suppression of these 10 million shares.
This price was actually a good price, but Mu Shuang did not continue to buy more stocks. It was not because he disliked the price, but because he did not want to trigger a chain reaction and continue to push up AMD's stock price.
Mu Shuang pushed the keyboard tray in, yawned, looked at Shi Lei on the sofa, and said a little arrogantly: "Shi Lei, we have received 100,000 shares of AMD, accounting for 138% of the total share capital, so we are also an AMD company."
shareholders!”
ABRD has many shareholders, and those whose shareholding ratio exceeds 0 are eligible to attend AMD's shareholders' meeting.
For example, Credit Suisse First Boston/CSFB, they only hold 0 shares!
Mirui Technology holds 10 million shares, equivalent to 138% of the total share capital, and is considered one of AMD's major shareholders.
"Aha! We can't be satisfied with being just a small shareholder, we want to become the absolute controlling shareholder of AMD!" Shi Lei has great ambitions and wants to become the absolute controlling shareholder of AMD.
The meaning of absolute control is that Shi Lei owns more than 50% of AMD's stock. As long as Shi Lei becomes the absolute controlling shareholder of AMD, he can easily change the company's senior leaders and decide AMD's business decisions.
Modern large companies will basically avoid the situation of absolute controlling shareholders. This is because the absolute controlling shareholders will cause other small and medium-sized shareholders to lose their voting rights, making the company a toy in the hands of the absolute controlling shareholders.
If the absolute controlling shareholder becomes opportunistic, or uses his power for personal gain, and treats the company as a personal cash machine, similar behavior will have a very serious negative impact on the listed company. At worst, the company's stock will plummet, investors will retreat, and small and medium-sized shareholders will retreat.
stocks; in serious cases, the company will collapse and the dynasty of listed companies will collapse.
Once Shi Lei expressed his intention to become the absolute controlling shareholder of AMD, not only AMD executives would disagree, but other shareholders would also disagree.
Mu Shuang walked to the business meeting area and sat across from Shi Lei. She rolled her eyes at Shi Lei and hummed: "It is not easy to gain absolute control over the number of circulating shares of AMD. Although it owns a total of 54.3 billion shares, most of them are already controlled by
They will not sell it easily if it is in the hands of shareholders large and small."
"Why don't they sell it?" Shi Lei frowned.
"Many investors are optimistic about AMD, and some investors are fixed investments and will not easily sell their stocks. For example, the Norwegian Government Global Pension Fund holds 068% of AMD shares. For them, as long as ABRD
Without a clear signal of bankruptcy, they will not sell AMD's shares at a low price and will only wait for dividends or a very high price to impress them." Mu Shuang explained the general situation.
The Norwegian Government Global Pension Fund is an official investment of the government. They have steadily purchased shares of AMD and will never sell them at a low price. It must be extremely difficult to acquire the shares in their hands!
Shi Lei frowned. He originally thought that it would be easy to obtain more than 50% of AMD's shares through acquisition through acquisition, but now it seems to be very difficult.
"Mu Shuang, how much share do investors and shareholders like the Norwegian Government Global Pension Fund occupy in total?" Shi Lei asked about the situation.
If there are too many governmental investors, the impact on the outcome of the acquisition will be huge. Because as the acquisition proceeds, there will be less and less shares circulating in the market, thus driving up the share price of ABRD.!
Mu Shuang did not answer Shi Lei's question and explained: "It is not clear yet. The situation of AMD's shareholders needs further investigation."
"Huh? Shouldn't the shareholder information of listed companies be made public?" Shi Lei said in surprise.
After the information is made public, it means that the required information can be easily investigated. Why hasn't Mu Shuang found the corresponding information?
"Idiot!" Mu Shuang rolled her eyes at Shi Lei, "Although the information of listed companies is public, it takes a lot of time to investigate specific shareholder information!"
"That's it!" Shi Lei breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the problem was that the working speed was too slow. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Yizuer's number without avoiding Mu Shuang.
Although he did not avoid Mu Shuang, Shi Lei did not address Yi Zuer directly. After waiting for the call to be connected, he ordered: "Investigate the situation of AMD shareholders. After the investigation is completed, send it to my mailbox!"
Mu Shuang looked at Shi Lei with surprise in her eyes, "Who did Shi Lei ask to investigate the AMD company's information? Xie Hui? No, Xie Hui does not have the talent in this area. Besides Xie Hui, who else?"
"YesSr!" Yi Zuer's tone is always so calm and emotionless. Shi Lei likes this tone and doesn't like Yi Zuer's imitation of human emotions to communicate with him.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Lei took the initiative to explain to Mu Shuang: "I was a friend just now. He is very familiar with this information. Information will be sent to him in a while!"
Less than ten minutes later, Shi Lei's mobile phone received a text message. It was the message sent by Yizuer, indicating that AMD's shareholder information had been sent to Shi Lei's mailbox.
Shi Lei stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's take a look at AMD's shareholder information!"
Mu Shuang felt a huge sense of surprise in her heart. AMD's shareholder information was indeed public, but there were hundreds of shareholders. How efficient was it that all the information could be sorted out in less than ten minutes?
high?
'Who is Shi Lei's friend, and how did he complete the statistics so quickly? Could it be that the other party has already prepared AMD's information? Does Mirui Technology really exist overseas?, Mu Shuang's heart
She had more doubts. She originally thought that Mirui Technology did not exist and was just an empty shell offshore company made up by Shi Lei.
However, the two main technical departments of Mirui Technology made Mu Shuang pay attention to Mirui Technology Company, but no corresponding information was found.
This time, Shi Lei asked his friends to investigate AMD's shareholder information, which made Mu Shuang once again doubt whether Mirui Technology really existed.
Shi Lei used Mu Shuang's computer to log in to his personal mailbox, downloaded the email sent by Yi Zuer and stored it locally.
The shareholder information of ABRD Company that Yizuer investigated is very detailed. Not only is the status of each shareholder listed in detail in the ward document, but also a large number of circular percentage charts and column comparison charts are made.
According to the information retrieved by Yizuer's investigation, AMD's shares circulating on the market are in the hands of fixed investors.
The meaning of these fixed investors is that they have held AMD shares for more than three years and will only buy shares but not sell them.
The remaining outstanding shares were divided into two parts.
The first part is in the hands of speculators. They can be regarded as temporary shareholders. They only hold stocks and do not participate in shareholders' meetings. The stocks in their hands move in and out with the price fluctuations of the stock market. This part of speculators holds about 1% of the circulation.
stock.
The other part, the last 20% of the circulating stocks, are the real circulating stocks, which are bought and sold by retail investors in the market and traded freely.
The part that Dream Entertainment can successfully acquire is only these 20% of free-floating stocks, and once the acquisition amount exceeds a certain level, AMD's stock price will definitely rise strongly.
Even if Dream Entertainment fully collects 20% of the free-floating stocks, and even pays a high price to collect 1 stock from speculators, it will only reach the 10% share of the stock.
After reaching that point, Dream Entertainment must negotiate with regular investors before it has the opportunity to continue to increase its share of stock holdings.
But when that situation comes, AMD has long since woken up. If someone wants to acquire the company, they will definitely be vigilant and create more trouble for the acquirer.
After Shi Lei and Mu Shuang read the information collected by Yizuer, Shi Lei didn't know much about stocks and felt that there was nothing too bad about the situation. But Mu Shuang's face had become a little ugly.
"Shi Lei, we may be in trouble!" Mu Shuang bit her pink lips slightly with her teeth and spoke in a low voice.
