Chapter 2303: Fanaticism
The night falls, and the lights begin to shine. The hustle and bustle of the day gradually settles into the tall buildings, and the Milky Way, which should have spanned the sky, also quietly disappears in the night sky.
The corner of the rooftop of Jiasheng Building, which belongs to the rest area, has now become a place where flowers compete for beauty. Peonies and peonies are fragrant and gorgeous, and irises and poppies are delicate and charming.
Therefore, the scene of two old men eating skewers and drinking in the flowers seems to be as unsightly as a cow chewing peonies.
Feng Yiping drank some wine and didn't want to talk much, while Lao Ma was just the opposite. After drinking, the better his mood, the more he talked.
Speaking of which, both of them came from the market, or strictly speaking, Feng Yiping can't be considered to be from the market. When he was born, Fengjia Chong had a well but no market, and it was an authentic countryside.
So when they were relaxing like this, even though they were on the top floor of an expensive modern building in the most prime location in China, even though the chef who was grilling for them, with two assistants who were chefs who could run a five-star hotel restaurant, and the ingredients for the grilling were all extremely expensive, the two of them still held bottles of Budweiser and blew them from each other.
Lao Ma sucked an oyster from Girardeau, France, which is known as the Rolls-Royce of oysters, and then "crunched" a red shrimp from Palamos, Spain, which is known as the Louis Vuitton of wild red shrimps, and ate it with the shell, and then blew a big mouthful of beer, and seemed to be ready to wipe his mouth with the back of his hand, but finally thought of the napkin on the table.
"Recently, it's really hard to understand," he propped his hands on the armrests of the chair, "As for the United States, it seems that it's really the same as you said, the financial system is a little unstable, and Europe doesn't seem to be easy either, but look at China,"
"Crazy!" Feng Yiping briefly summed it up in two words.
Really crazy!
In newspapers, on TV, on buses, and on the streets, there are speeches like "If you don't manage your finances, your finances won't manage you." People from all walks of life enter the stock market with confidence, hoping to get rich overnight.
The places where stock market accounts are opened are as crowded as farmers' markets. I heard that in May, the number of new accounts opened exceeded 5.6 million, compared with more than 78 million at the end of last year, and now it has exceeded 100 million.
Although funds are currently very unpopular, the number of people investing in funds is also increasing rapidly. Looking at the current trend, perhaps by the end of the year, there will be more than 100 million households here.
And many of these people queuing up to open accounts are the same group of people who buy vegetables at farmers' markets.
Inspired by a series of stories of people who became millionaires, multi-millionaires, and even billionaires by speculating in stocks, even the old ladies who go to farmers' markets to buy vegetables every day are excited and boiling.
The key is that some of them really made some money.
For example, a local cleaning lady is now the most famous "stock god". She has been publicly reported by many media and has been interviewed and shared her experience many times.
After that, many people who moved from farmers' markets to securities trading halls, after tasting the sweetness, perfectly inherited and carried forward the spirit of the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries who were not afraid of heaven or earth. It has become a common thing to use the money for their children's marriage and house purchase to speculate in stocks.
And those who were interviewed by the media included not only cleaning ladies on the street who turned into stock gods, but also monks in famous mountains and ancient temples.
This is really not fiction. These people who were supposed to cut off their seven emotions and six desires have also begun to keep up with the secular trend, or to experience the excitement and surprise of the world.
Another place that should have been separated from society is in schools. At this time, many teachers, especially those who claim to have advantages in this area or think they have advantages in IQ, have no intention of teaching and are determined to directly cash in their wisdom and knowledge from the stock market.
Even cleaning ladies and grocery shopping ladies who may not even know what stocks are can make money, so it is impossible for us not to make money.
Perhaps with the same idea, students skipping classes to trade stocks has also become a trend. Many college students embezzle tuition fees to trade stocks, and even regard this as starting a business - to a certain extent, this is really more positive than later college students borrowing high-interest loans to buy Apple phones and brand-name bags.
If college students trading stocks is understandable, then in some reports, even third and fourth grade primary school students are seriously exchanging stock trading experiences every day, which really makes people feel like they are still asleep.
Even if they are like this, let alone the white-collar class. Since this year, the number of white-collar workers who are not at ease at work has increased rapidly. It is popular here to take leave to trade stocks. For this reason, even doctors' sick leave notes have become popular, and one costs 100 yuan.
There are even some who, with the idea that after this wave of market, I will be someone you cannot afford, throw their resignation letters on the desk of the supervisor they no longer want to serve, and simply quit their jobs to trade stocks...
If you observe carefully, you will feel that the whole society is full of plots that are more absurd and bizarre than those in novels.
While many people in Europe and the United States, especially those in the financial and securities industry, have more or less felt the chill, the whole country has entered the craze of stock investment.
This is a craze that cannot be stopped by any setbacks.
On January 31, the Shanghai Composite Index plummeted 144 points, and the Shenzhen Component Index fell by more than 600 points, the highest in ten years, which could not stop the craze of everyone entering the market.
On February 27, the second trading day after the Spring Festival, the two markets plummeted, which could not be stopped.
The plunge on April 19 could not be stopped, and the plunge caused by the adjustment of stamp duty in the middle of the night on May 30 could not be stopped either...
From January to now, in the past six months, the central bank has raised the RMB deposit reserve ratio of deposit-taking financial institutions once a month on average, which cannot be stopped.
In March and May, two interest rate hikes could not be stopped...
From domestic to international, a large number of well-known authoritative figures were bearish, which could not be stopped.
Of course, these authoritative figures have once again made mistakes in their judgments on the trend of the Chinese stock market.
After leaving office, Greenspan seemed to have lost his magic all of a sudden; Rogers, who thought he knew a lot about investing in China, would find that he did not understand China at all; and Li Laochao, after Feng Yiping's rise, seemed to have made mistakes in judgments on such important hot economic issues again...
There are more and more people who sing "I will never sell even if I die", grab cheap stocks when they see them, and buy blue chips when they see them.
It is really a must-see if you pass by, and you will make money if you buy...
Feng Yiping has a vague sense of déjà vu facing the later housing prices.
The difference is that when faced with housing prices later, those who have houses hope that prices will continue to rise, while those who don’t have houses hope that prices will fall one after another. However, when faced with the stock market at this time, everyone can be said to be of one mind, that is, rise, rise, rise!
And from the current results, it seems that the old saying has really been confirmed, when people are united, they can move mountains.
The overall rising index has made many people who were originally a little nervous firm.
On TV, "experts" used to say that "5,000 points is healthier than 1,000 points," but now they often mention what will happen at "10,000" points.
Many people are looking at their full warehouses of stocks, waiting for the arrival of 10,000 points.
"It's really crazy," Lao Ma also said, "You may be okay. On my side, whether it is meeting with people or contacting them by phone recently, many people are obviously more willing to discuss stocks than to talk about business,"
"It's understandable. Who can resist the opportunity to get rich overnight?" Feng Yiping said.
Of course, he blocked it. He has blocked Li Ruiyuan's proposal to enter the market several times.
Fortunately, Li Ruiyuan's other projects, including gold futures, which have been in the market for nearly four years, have returned more than expected; crude oil futures, which began to test the waters last year, have also returned more than expected; even Feng Yiping's proposal to follow Buffett's lead and invest in PetroChina has also returned more than expected; and the Apple stock he holds has also risen gratifyingly, successfully breaking through $100 in April...
If not, Feng Yiping may be able to stop Li Ruiyuan's body, but he can't stop his heart.
"I don't know what the situation will be like in a few months," said Lao Ma.
Feng Yiping said, "Look, isn't it a common idea of many people now that the country will not let the stock market fall before the opening of the Olympics no matter what?"
"So, they are highly optimistic about the stock market trend in the next few months,"
"But they didn't pay attention to a data, the stock market value has exceeded GDP, and it is possible to break through 20 trillion or even 30 trillion. With such a market value, how can the country support it?"
He shook his head, "I can only hope that they can stop while they are ahead,"
"Difficult," Lao Ma shook his head, "Now everyone's mind is looking at the mountain on the other side,"
Jin Ling interrupted their worries with a cheerful voice, "Yiping, don't you want to know how much the box office is today?"
"Hey, you two know how to enjoy it,"
ps: Sorry for the slip of the tongue, so late again.
