The Microsoft stock held by Sun Dahai performed well. Although it also fell by 27%, it was priced but not marketed, and the trading volume was less than half of normal times, which shows that small shareholders are still reluctant to sell.
The entire U.S. stock market, worth approximately $500 billion in stock market value, was wiped out in just one day on October 19th. This amount was equivalent to the entire gross national product of France last year.
However, these data were not released until a few hours later, because the entire stock market trading system was still down until the close of trading.
Sun Dahai and the others have long found it boring. This is like watching a cartoon. Originally, 24 frames per second are presented in the human eye as a continuous picture. Who would have imagined that it would take several minutes or ten minutes to watch one frame of pictures, or still
intermittently.
Laurson was so angry that he wanted to curse. Originally, this was a great opportunity to play short-term, but in the end, everyone could only wait, and they couldn't see real-time information. It was very anxious.
At five o'clock in the morning, the US market closed. After everyone packed up, they didn't even bother to eat and yawned all day long before going back to sleep.
Such a special trading day was ruined by the backward computer system. Even the reborn Sun Dahai did not expect such a situation.
After a short sleep, Sun Dahai was woken up by the alarm clock. After washing, he came to the restaurant and had breakfast with everyone.
While everyone was eating, they discussed the performance of yesterday's US market and made predictions about today's market. While it was busy, Qiao Wanting came up from downstairs.
"What? The Hong Kong stock market and stock index futures want to 'clear the backlog of transactions', so they will be closed for four days and will reopen next Monday (26th)?"
The latest news brought by Qiao Wanting surprised everyone. Sun Dahai was silent and watched the farce unfold.
Yes, this is a farce. At the meeting before the opening of trading on the 20th, all members of the Stock Exchange passed the decision to suspend trading for four days.
In fact, a few hours before that, when the U.S. market had not closed, the Chairman of the Stock Exchange, Li Fook-siu, had called the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong to ask for instructions on suspending trading in the Hong Kong stock market. As for the "clearing backlog of transactions" mentioned later, it was purely
A pretense.
Every stock investor understands that what the Stock Exchange is really worried about is that the plummeting U.S. stock market will further affect the Hong Kong stock market, so it decided to suspend trading to "temporarily avoid the limelight."
Can you bury your head in the sand and act like an ostrich for a few days to avoid the global stock market crash? Sun Dahai shook his head, "Three-Slap Party" is really everywhere. It's a pity that Li Fuzhao's great reputation was ruined in one day.
What Sun Dahai didn't know was that the Kuruz family was behind this incident.
Many people in the Cruz family knew about the bet between Brent and Sun Dahai, but this matter was suppressed by Brent's grandfather, who claimed that it was a bet between children for fun.
Worth millions of dollars.
This statement is correct, but it lacks a time attribute. The Kuruz family purchased this piece of land, including the benefits given to the handling officials, for a total of less than one million U.S. dollars, but this happened more than thirty years ago.
A transaction.
The Hong Kong stock market plummeted on the 19th. In the afternoon, the news had reached Grandpa Brent in Britten.
He urgently called in the traders in the family to study countermeasures, but in this case, no matter what they did, it would not help. On the contrary, they had to be careful not to sink deeper.
In the end, they came to a conclusion, which was similar to Taylor's suggestion to Brent. They would wait and see what happens. But they were already prepared to lose.
However, in the early morning of the 20th (Hong Kong time), that is, the night of London time, they received internal information from Hong Kong that the Stock Exchange deliberately suspended the stock and futures markets in Hong Kong to avoid greater losses.
This news shocked their spirits. After careful analysis, they found that it is still very feasible. If the US market can stop falling and stabilize during the market break in Hong Kong, this strategy will have a certain probability of making the Hong Kong stock and futures markets better.
It may rebound quickly and eventually return to 3700 points.
Therefore, Brent's grandfather mobilized family power and exchanged interests with several key figures in a short period of time. In just a few hours, he opened up the relationship between Brenten and several relevant departments of the Xiangjiang government.
, adopted Li Fuzhao’s proposal.
However, although the Cruze family did not use the billion-dollar reserve fund, the actual value of the benefits and favors paid for it was not low.
Even if Brent finally wins the bet with Sun Dahai and the future building belongs to him, more than half of the ownership will be transferred to others for free.
The calculations of the Kuruz family have not affected the course of history. One and a half hours before the official opening of the Hong Kong stock market, the Stock Exchange has officially announced that trading in the Hong Kong stock market and stock index futures will be temporarily suspended for four working days.
Trading will resume next Monday (26th).
Although the Asian team focuses mainly on the Nikkei 225 Index futures in Singapore, the Hong Kong stock market is also their focus. Because how much private money the trading team can get this time will fall on the Hang Seng Index futures.
Everyone has different opinions, some are bullish and some are bearish, but their ideas are opposite to those on the exchange, because all the trading teams set up are empty orders.
But it's useless to say anything now. Since the market has closed, no matter how much people have ideas, they can't take action now. Therefore, Xing Wenyan made a speech before work, asking everyone not to worry about the situation in Xiangjiang and to do a good job in daily trading.
of.
The Nikkei 225 Index, which had been strong for a day on the 19th, gave up resistance as soon as the market opened today, and the pitcher surrendered. The opening price was at the 25,000-point mark, which was 650 points lower than yesterday's settlement price. You know, throughout the day yesterday
The Nikkei 225 index only fell by 620 points.
Upon seeing this, Xing Wenyan immediately ordered several accounts to open positions at the same time, adding a total of 10,000 short orders. Unfortunately, only half of the transactions were completed, and the index fell downwards, away from the transaction area.
When Xing Wenyan saw this, she did not pursue the operation. She ordered the trader to withdraw the unfilled sell orders and continue to patiently look for opportunities.
The market in Xiangjiang is closed, so Sun Dahai can only watch the daily market.
As if all the power was exhausted yesterday, today's daily trading started a retaliatory decline under the pressure of selling, and soon reached the first circuit breaker point, and the market was closed for 15 minutes.
At this time, less than half an hour had passed since the opening.
"Boss, I have your phone number. It's Bill from Microsoft. He will call your office again in ten minutes." Gao Yi's voice came from the company's internal phone.
Gao Yi knew how much Sun Dahai attached great importance to Microsoft, so he decided to ask Bill to call back later.
