Chapter 175: Good Advice Is Hard to Persuade the Damned, from Heaven to Hell
In theory, insider information in the stock market indeed has the effect of a decisive blow.
But theory is theory, and practice is practice.
Especially when the two individuals obsessed with insider information also become key elements of the gamble themselves, what truly becomes decisive is no longer the insider information, but the so-called "Heavenly Dao."
This Heavenly Dao is not the mysterious immortal concept depicted in fantasy dramas but the almost imperceptible social laws that permeate the history of human civilization.
There is a pattern to everything in the world, just as productivity determines relationships of production, and likewise the human nature contests in the stock market.
Most of the time in the stock market, the major players can control the stock price trends very well.
But there are occasional exceptions.
When the nerves of retail investors are overly taut and a certain emotion accumulates to the extreme, forming a weak dam, someone bores an inconspicuous crack in this dam.
The high-pressure water rushes through, the crack gradually enlarges, eventually causing the entire dam to collapse.
Then, the mountain flood flows down, mud and sand slide together, the general trend is unstoppable.
The massive-cap stock, Starcraft Shipbuilding, has been steadily rising for days, its market capitalization soaring from seven trillion to thirty or forty trillion.
This is equivalent to inflating a huge balloon in just half a month.
Stockholders' mentality is in an extremely delicate state, both frenzied and panicked.
The frenzy stems from the rapid inflation of the capital bubble. No one dislikes the feeling of wealth appreciation without doing anything.
The hidden panic arises from the worry of this bubble bursting. When worry reaches the extreme, it naturally becomes fear.
These two opposing extreme emotions widely exist within the same group, turning the will of this group into an unstable high tower.
At the top of the tower, there swings a giant and heavy pendulum lightly.
The tower is always teetering on a subtle balance but never collapses.
What secretly controls this balance is the many capitals entrenched around the lead actors of the grand show, Starcraft Shipbuilding, and Deep Space Ocean.
These capitals may come from the Nine Major Groups or from some long-standing family clans, as well as new players in the Source Star capital market.
A large amount of capital secretly interlinks, huddles like tigers and dragons, overlooking the human world.
The opposition to the capital is the vast retail investors.
This process of first maintaining a steady rise and then suddenly plummeting was originally a ruthless harvest of Source Star retail investors by capital using the significant mergers of leading enterprises.
These capitals are both brutal and professional, with strong capabilities.
Only by their coalition manipulation can they keep the pendulum of the Starcraft Shipbuilding tower in a subtle balance, always near collapse but never falling, constantly oscillating to torment and tempt the minds of the retail investors.
When the timing was about right, starting from yesterday, the capital groups began executing their plan step by step to drive down the stock price, aiming to flush out as many retail investors as possible to complete the final step before the plan of merger announcement by the two leading ship manufacturing companies.
This step is to achieve a perfect merger at a relatively reasonable stock price with an approximate 30% drop from the peak, then create a super aerospace industry giant capable of completing the "Making Dumplings Plan" within twenty years.
Deep Space Ocean achieves its goal, becoming the sole leader.
The many large shareholders who made sacrifices within Starcraft Shipbuilding can also receive substantial monetary compensation.
The ending is a win-win for all.
In the entire game, the losers are only the slaughtered retail investors who suffered explosions or panic selling during the plunge.
That is the rationale, but this time, the situation has changed.
Yang Bingzhong is reading the article by Huang the Stock Immortal, and Ren Zhong is reading too.
He knew the result in advance. In this round of capital operation, the plunge of Starcraft Shipbuilding was extremely brutal, almost inhumane.
This obviously contradicted the fundamental laws of the Source Star economic system, not what the major shareholders behind Starcraft Shipbuilding wanted to see, far exceeding the top capitals' plan.
In this process, there must have been some factors outside the norm that emerged, breaking the balance and pushing things harshly towards an out-of-control direction.
As for what exactly this factor was, Ren Zhong was actually puzzled before.
Now Ren Zhong knows the reason.
At this moment, that Huang person is the additional factor.
With Huang once again issuing the "Bull Reversal" theory, the followers who were already anxious when seeing him enter the market were all mentally crushed.
Without hesitation, these people chose the one-click liquidation, running first out of respect.
Not only that, but these people also scrambled to remind their friends and relatives, don't hesitate, hurry up and run!
