I earn really hard money

Chapter 233 I am moved

"Reducing holdings... It seems that Sky Arts' board of directors is not united!"

He Xia did not expect such a thing to happen before.

As soon as there is any trouble in the outside world, the director will reduce his holdings of stocks to cash out. It can be seen that the members of the board of directors lack confidence, but this is a good thing for him.

Raising her wrist to glance at the time, He Xia made a transoceanic call.

It was early six in the morning in New York, and Siegfried had already woken up. He was brushing his teeth when he heard his cell phone ringing, and quickly answered it.

After a brief conversation, He Xia and Siegfried had weird smiles on their faces at the same time.

Just after finishing talking with Siegfried, Jiao Tianming called again, and it was clear that the matter should not be finished.

"Manager Jiao, it seems that your environmental safety factor is not high, so be careful!"

He Xia said with concern that this chess piece is still very useful.

"Cough, thank you Mr. He for your concern..." Jiao Tianming got into the dusty storage room, sat inside facing the door, and would know when someone came in.

"Mr. He, last time you mentioned the game Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I would like to ask, do you know that there are five types of spies in "The Art of War"? I don't know which one I am?"

He Xia raised her brows, she didn't expect Jiao Tianming to risk calling herself to ask this question, which is not surprising, after all, this is a matter closely related to him.

"Haha, I'm not very educated and haven't read Sun Tzu's Art of War, so please ask Manager Jiao to tell me what are the five types of spies?"

"Sun Tzu divides spies into cause, interior, reaction, life and death..."

Jiao Tianming then roughly explained the differences between the five types of spies.

The reason is to buy or use the ordinary people of the enemy country as spies; the inside is to buy or use the officials and high-level officials of the enemy country as spies;

In life, our spies came back alive to report the news after spying on it.

The worst thing is to die, to create false information and let our spies deliberately pass it on to the enemy country, so that they can be fooled. Once the enemy country finds out that they have been deceived, they will execute our spies to death. Even if they know this, we will not send people to rescue them.

Jiao Tianming asked such a question out of his own consideration, he was willing to be used by He Xia, but he didn't want himself to be dead, that would be too sad...

He Xia didn't put Jiao Tianming in a perfunctory manner, and after thinking carefully for a while, he said, "First of all, I can promise that it's definitely not a dead room. I think it probably belongs to the inner room. It fits the current situation very well, doesn't it?"

After hearing He Xia's first words, Jiao Tianming was relieved. For some reason, He Xia was particularly willing to believe the promises he made to himself.

As for the other four "rooms", Jiao Tianming doesn't really care much about them.

"I'm relieved to hear Mr. He's words. It's a very advanced feeling, so I'll continue to rebel..."

"be careful!"

After all, the two sides ended the call.

That night, exactly the same as the day before, Zhou Shiliu came to He Xia's room with a computer in high spirits, but it was a little earlier than yesterday, at just nine o'clock, half an hour before the opening of the beautiful stock market.

At the same time, an article titled "Suspected Sky Art Shareholders' Confidence Has Collapsed, More than Half of the Directors Want to Reduce Holdings and Cash Out" appeared on financial information-related media.

The rhetoric in the article is sharp, the analysis is clear and logical, and the sharp sword cuts directly at the vital point.

Let me ask, if it weren't for the company's unavoidable problems, why did shareholders want to reduce their holdings?

More importantly, at the current point in time, the company's reputation has problems, and the stock price has suffered a setback...

If there is no problem, there is a high probability that the shareholders will choose to tide over the difficulties together, but why do they flee separately?
There are a lot of guessing words used in the article. If you read it carefully, you will find a very interesting phenomenon. There is not a single word of affirmation throughout the article!
Similar to if, maybe, probably, possibly, perhaps, suspected... and so on, although every sentence is inseparable from suspicion, every sentence is guiding people in that direction.

It gives people a feeling that every sentence is skeptical, but a fact is explained behind it.

In Pengcheng, besides Bai Zongwei, there were two young men in white shirts in Bai Zongwei's study room. He looked at the news reports in English on the computer screen with a pale face.

"There are ghosts, and the company has ghosts!"

Bai Zongwei was furious in his heart. The news that the shareholders wanted to reduce their shareholdings had not been announced to the public at all, and even the department that issued the report hadn't been notified. It was just a few words at the board of directors, and a private discussion after the meeting...

Even so, such important news has spread to the other side of the ocean in a very short period of time, and someone must have tipped it off!

Unfortunately, it is not so easy to find people out...

Not to mention the minutes of the meeting of the board of directors, as long as a few people can browse it, the level of confidentiality is relatively high, but the participants are not only the directors, but also several department executives, secretaries and staff serving tea...

After the meeting, the directors did not shy away from discussing in private. The employees who walked by, the cleaners who cleaned the house, could all hear relevant information!
Besides, the opening of the market is about to start, even if the insider is caught, it is useless, the news has already been exposed, and the impact has been caused, no matter how much clarification is done, it will be a waste of effort, and the water will never be recovered!
Those shareholders and directors who wanted to reduce their holdings were all dumbfounded...

The reduction of holdings must be accompanied by a series of operations, but it will only be carried out after the news is announced. How can there be no reason why the news has already gone out before the action here!

This caught them off guard!

At 09:30, the beautiful country stock market opened.

He Xia and Zhou Shiliu waited in strict battle, with sufficient ammunition in their hands, and prepared to continue shorting while harvesting the chips of retail investors' hot money in the market.

However, just after the market opened, something happened that surprised the two of them.

Sky Art opened slightly lower today than yesterday. However, as soon as the market opened, a large number of empty orders appeared on the market, and the stock price fell directly from US$6.38 to US$5.56, a [-]% drop. The momentum is scary!

The plunge directly triggers a circuit breaker!

"This is... a short-selling institution is here to play the autumn wind?"

He Xia didn't even have time to buy empty orders, and only bought a few sporadic selling orders, that is, a small amount of long orders, so the transaction was suspended...

Zhou Shiliu nodded and said: "That's right, the report from the Grizzlies has had a very good effect. Some organizations are pessimistic about Sky Arts and are selling short. Siegfried should immediately..."

She wanted to say that she would call right away, but the phone rang before she finished speaking.

"Mr. He, there are short-selling institutions entering the market at present, you can focus on buying chips, haha, you fooled the fool into it!"

After Siegfried finished speaking seriously, he couldn't help laughing.

He really wanted to know which short-selling institution this foolishly rushed in was, because the purpose of this wave of short-selling Sky Art was to snap up cheap chips at the end, and then use them to initiate acquisitions.

In other words, in the end, the stock price of Sky Art will definitely rise back, and when the time comes to fight for funds, it will even exceed the seven dollars when it started shorting!

He Xia didn't quite understand Siegfried's words, but he could hear a sense of relief from the other party's joyful words, which was a good sign.

"Then I don't need to continue buying short now?"

Siegfried nodded and said: "If your ultimate goal is to acquire Sky Art, there is no need to continue to short. With strong short positions, retail gaming funding, and overwhelming research reports and attacking articles, Sky Art will fall sharply this time. awful!"

"Of course, if you plan to take this opportunity to make a fortune, please be careful of the trend!"

miserable.

How miserable.

20.00%, thirty, or cut in half...

Siegfried didn't say it clearly, and He Xia didn't know much about it. In short, it was very beneficial for him to use it to snap up chips.

The fuse time was about to end, and the two hung up the phone.

Trading resumed, the stock price is still falling, the price has reached around $[-], and it is about to fall to the integer mark of strong support.

He Xia bought a lot of selling orders here, but still couldn't effectively prevent the stock price from falling...

"Look at the five yuan place...a big gift crab!"

Zhou Shiliu also wanted to say, let’s see if there will be a wave of strong support at the round number of [-] yuan. In the end, he broke through without even a trace of hesitation. When it reached [-] yuan, the circuit breaker was triggered again!
Both the Nasdaq index and individual stocks have a circuit breaker mechanism, and they are all three times. The difference is that if the market triggers the third circuit breaker and the market is closed that day, individual stocks will not...

After 10 minutes, the stock price continued to fall, not as fast as before, but the pace was very steady and the pace was firm...

"I have already bought 200 million shares here, should I continue? If I continue to change accounts, I have no money!"

Zhou Shiliu pointed to the screen.

He Xia immediately reported an account to Zhou Shiliu, and the two continued to sweep up the stocks that were sold on the market.

There are also other funds competing with them for bargaining chips, but they are not well-funded institutions, just some retail investors who think they are about to bottom out and are buying the bottom.

At midnight, the last circuit breaker of Sky Art, immediately after the end of the first half, the stock price has fallen to 4.14 US dollars. From the monthly K-line, a long red column (pretty country red is falling) is very eye-catching.

"Eat, rest. Let's fight again in the second half!"

He Xia learned from experience and ordered a sumptuous supper immediately after the market closed.

While waiting for the meal, Siegfried called to inquire about the situation.

"Mr. He, how many stocks do you have now? Please don't get me wrong, I need this data to make arrangements for the next plan."

He Xia checked with Zhou Shiliu for a while, and said, "It's still tens of thousands of shares short of 1000 million shares."

This kind of news cannot be concealed from Siegfried, and He Xia has never thought about doubting the other party, and the employer does not doubt the other party.

Siegfried himself has no messy ideas. He is the head of a research institution with a very professional ethics. He uses technology and vicious vision to make money.

"Judging from the situation in the morning, retail investors and small institutions are basically selling stocks. This wave of declines is very strong. I guess the directors of Sky Art will not reduce their holdings for the time being..."

Siegfried said with a little regret.

According to He Xia's idea, if he wants to acquire Sky Art by buying stocks, it needs to reach 50.00%. Regardless of the rules, it is very difficult to directly acquire so many chips from the secondary market!

But if you can buy the stocks in the hands of shareholders, it will be much simpler.

After the two discussed the operation policy after the market opened in the middle of the night, they ended the call.

From time to time, supper is delivered.

He Xia and Zhou Shiliu were studying the market while eating.

"If this short-seller continues to short after the market opens, I feel that he will suffer a lot..."

Zhou Shiliu said while eating.

"Why do you suffer a big loss, and run away if you have a profit after the fall!"

He Xia humbly asked for advice!

"Things are not as simple as you think. To close a short position, you need to buy a position. We sweep the goods like this, and we accept the order as soon as we see it. Once the selling decreases, the stock price will start to rise, and there will be more buyers!"

"There is no counterparty in the market, only buyers in the same direction, but no sellers, even if you want to close an empty order, you will not be able to close!"

Zhou Shiliu shrugged and made an exaggerated expression!

He Xia thought for a while, slapped his thigh, and said, "Won't that cause the short squeeze you mentioned before?"

Zhou Shiliu nodded: "That's right, that is to say...according to this situation, you will compete with the major shareholders of Sky Arts for bargaining chips in the future. I don't know which short-selling institution this is. I just looked at it and he at least bought it. I placed a short order of 500 million shares, so at present, it is already difficult for short-sellers to close their positions!"

"Maybe his goal is relatively large. I kind of hope that he can lower the stock price a little bit, and I can buy more cheap chips."

He Xia said thoughtfully.

Zhou Shiliu twitched the corners of his mouth: "Then you really have to thank this short-selling institution for saving you at least 3000 million U.S. dollars at the risk of liquidation!"

"Haha, I was a little moved when I said it..."

He Xia showed a grateful expression, and took a bite of the roast goose.

While they were feasting here, the directors of Sky Art had a big fuss!

"Who leaked the news, we must investigate, call the police and investigate!"

The director whose son went to school in Northern Europe said angrily, he said that he would wait for seven or eight yuan before reducing his holdings, but he was actually ready to cash out part of it at the opening of the market!
Relevant regulations on the reduction of major shareholders' holdings must be disclosed in advance, but this regulation has certain flexibility. If the proportion and amount of reductions do not meet certain standards, no disclosure is required!
According to his shareholding ratio and quantity, selling 200 million shares is not supervised at all!

I also thought about selling it after a slight rise after the market opened, but it fell sharply, making everyone stupid.

Based on 200 million shares, the loss is more than 400 million dollars.

Sometimes, it is more unacceptable to earn less than to lose money. Everyone shouts to accept it as soon as it is good, but after all, few people can really do it!
After hearing the roar, Bai Zongwei said calmly: "Who knows which shameless scumbag it is, but unfortunately even if it is caught, there is no way to make up for our losses. Damn it!"

He can accept the stock price drop, but he cannot bear the fact that the news exposes it in advance!
"Old Bai, you hold the most shares and have lost tens of millions of dollars. You look so calm, do you know any news?"

asked a director.

"I can know some inside information, but I have no plan to reduce my holdings. As long as the company develops well, the stock price will rise back sooner or later, so there is no rush."

Bai Zongwei's mentality is very good, which is in stark contrast to other anxious directors, and he also deliberately ordered a shareholding reduction, obviously to tell other directors.

"It's really that simple? Why do I feel that today's plunge is a bit unusual, Lao Bai, you really don't know, why don't you tell us if you know?"

The previous director seemed to say something.

As soon as his words came out, the other directors frowned, with suspicion in their eyes.
