Dong Qiangqiang walked out of the restaurant with relief. He still couldn't figure out why Tong Lele asked him to come over tonight. It seems that her judgment was indeed affected by the crazy uncle's attack. Although she seems to be quite normal on the surface, it will be troublesome if she really has a thinking problem, because in that case, outsiders will not be able to see the abnormality at all. Dong Qiangqiang can only hope that this is a temporary phenomenon.
While he was thinking wildly, he habitually touched his trouser pockets. Not long after he started quitting smoking, he still had the habit of touching cigarettes with his hands unconsciously.
But he only took out a pack of chewing gum from his pocket, and then he remembered that when he had a craving for cigarettes in the morning, he bought a cigarette substitute from the vending machine in the nursing home.
While chewing gum, he considered whether to call Tong Lele and find an excuse to leave first, but he was not worried about Tong Lele going back to the dormitory alone at night. But if he didn't leave, he might have to continue "sitting in" for a while, and he felt exhausted mentally and physically.
It was almost 7pm, and although the sky was getting dark, the street lights were not yet on. The Big Ox Bones Restaurant is located at the corner of the street in the outer area of the city center, where there are more passing vehicles than pedestrians.
Dong Qiangqiang looked at the pedestrians who occasionally walked towards the city center, and made plans for the weekend in his mind: he must complete the volunteer hours as soon as possible, and at the same time, he must finish his driving lessons as soon as possible. In addition, he must start up business again as soon as possible. Lei Lanting's "price reduction promotion" It still made him feel uneasy.
Just as he was prioritizing the tasks he wanted to complete, the phone in his pocket rang. As soon as the call was connected, Duan Mu Xinghao's excited and exciting voice immediately came from the receiver: "Hey, old director, the Volkswagen preferred shares have risen again in the afternoon, and now they are almost 70 marks per share."
"Is there any new news?" Dong Qiangqiang had a keen premonition that something had happened, because he didn't see any special news from the public when he read the newspaper in the morning. Why did the price suddenly increase now? "Or did it release the company's financial report for the first half of the year?"
"Hehe, yes, the response is fast enough." Duanmu praised, and then changed the subject, "But this time the stock price rose not because of its semi-annual report, but because of one of its research reports."
"Report?" Dong Qiangqiang was even more surprised, "What report?"
Duanmu did not rush to answer his question, but gave it a try first: "Have you heard about the WTO negotiations?"
"Well, are you referring to our (country) business negotiations with the World Trade Organization? Of course I know." Dong Qiangqiang insists on reading financial newspapers every day and has been paying close attention to this matter. "But this matter has nothing to do with public research. What does the report have to do with it?”
"Hey, you don't know this, right?" Duanmu said proudly, "If we really join the WTO this year or next year, there may be a lot of foreign car manufacturers entering the Chinese market in the next 5-10 years. Volkswagen They have been paying attention to the progress of China's accession to the WTO. They also conducted a special study. On the one hand, it analyzed Volkswagen's domestic market competitiveness. On the other hand, the Germans predicted that after China's accession to the WTO, the domestic automobile market may have a decline. What kind of development."
"What is the conclusion of the report?" Dong Qiangqiang asked.
"To put it simply, the Germans believe that China's future automobile market will be at least 4-5 times the size of the current market, and may even be 6-8 times. Among these car manufacturers, Volkswagen, which entered the Chinese market earlier, has a very strong A good first-mover advantage. Volkswagen also believes that its investment and layout in the Chinese automobile market is the most far-sighted and well-organized among all German car companies. The report also specifically mentioned that Volkswagen’s various types of cars have been deployed in the Asia-Pacific region for nearly 3 Sales have been rising every year, and Volkswagen’s sales performance in China is the fastest growing here. You have to admit that Volkswagen’s hand is indeed beautiful. With performance to support it, investors in the secondary market will definitely vote with their feet. That’s it.”
"Speaking of which, Volkswagen cars are indeed very common in China," Dong Qiangqiang recalled. "I often see Jetta, Santana, Passat..." on the street.
"Hey, I have good news." Duanmu's tone suddenly turned sour, "But it's only good news for you."
"Is it good news only for me?" Dong Qiangqiang was confused.
"Not only are the stocks (of Public Preferred Stock) rising this time, but among the public call options that we analyzed together that you picked out last time, I think some of them (options) have risen by more than 30%. You Did you buy it later? If you did, you really copied it this time."
"Well, I bought all those call options, but their exercise dates are almost always at the end of the year. It's only the middle of the year, there are still six months to go, and there are still big variables." Dong Qiangqiang listened. I wasn't too excited about this news. Options come with financial leverage, and the individual options he bought are tradable 24 hours a day during the trading day. The more people trade, the more likely the product will experience a short-term premium.
"Ahem, it's not a bad thing to go up now." Duanmu said enviously, "I used to think that the risk (of options) was too great. If I looked in the wrong direction, all my money would be wasted, so I bought them all (from the public) this time. Stocks. I didn’t expect that the volatility of options this time would be so much greater than stocks. So do you think it’s still too late for me to place an order now? I think there are several option products that can still be purchased.”
"I can't give you any advice on this." Dong Qiangqiang replied honestly, "I have just started to get into this myself, and I am also a novice. I can only say that chasing the rise and killing the fall is very risky, so you have to think about it carefully."
Duanmu came into contact with stock options earlier than Dong Qiangqiang, but his attitude towards sunk costs was much more conservative than Dong Qiangqiang (he was afraid of losing the option purchase fee), so he fell behind Dong Qiangqiang in terms of trading options.
"Okay, then I'll think about it again." Duanmu was a little unhappy when he didn't get the reply he expected, and said to himself, "Actually, I'm very optimistic about this product now. I feel that it can make a lot more money than stocks."
Dong Qiangqiang reiterated the principle that European options can only be exercised on the expiration date. The current increase is only paper wealth and cannot be realized. However, Duanmu was just talking to himself and did not listen to Dong Qiangqiang's kind reminder at all.
Realizing that the other party was perfunctory, Dong Qiangqiang smiled bitterly in his heart. No wonder newspapers always say that investors are irrational. It seems that this is not true at all. Every investor has his or her own pitfalls to jump into, and they will not become particularly cautious just because of previous warnings.
Dong Qiangqiang sighed for two seconds, and at the same time he was curious about where his trap was.
Duanmu mentioned several other stocks that he had recently paid attention to, and specifically asked Dong Qiangqiang to pay attention to them. At the same time, he made it clear that it would be more perfect if he had time to look for option products on those stocks.
Dong Qiangqiang looked around intentionally or unintentionally. Suddenly, a thin figure flashed past a street not far away, seemingly heading towards the city center.
Dong Qiangqiang suddenly thought: Why does this figure look so much like Jin Yuan?
Since the last goodbye outside the driving school, Dong Qiangqiang has not seen Jin Yuan for almost a month and has been unable to contact him. He is very worried about Jin Yuan's safety. At this moment, he suddenly saw a similar figure from behind, and immediately shouted and chased after him.
