Third, the stock type.
1 Blue chip refers to the constituent stocks of the Hang Seng Index. The common characteristics of such stocks are strong industry representation, high liquidity, good financial position, stable profit and fixed dividends. The number of blue chip stocks is 43. Because these stocks have strong profitability, most of them belong to the preferred stocks of the fund (that is, stocks held by the fund for a long time or bought at a higher price), so they are less affected by human factors (such as banker's activities) and their stock prices are relatively stable, which is suitable for medium and long-term investment.
origin
The word "blue chip" comes from the English word "blue chip", which is a term of Wall Street. In previous American casinos, the chips used were represented by different colors, and the biggest silver chips were represented by blue. Therefore, people use this term to refer to the stocks of some large listed companies as blue chips, which means that the stock prices of these companies are high enough, the market value is large enough, and they are active and easy to trade.
In addition, due to the high share price of blue-chip stocks, the trading volume per hand is large. For example, HSBC (0005) has 400 shares per lot. If the stock price is 100 yuan, it will cost 40,000 yuan per lot. Therefore, the trading of blue-chip stocks is mainly based on funds (institutional investors), and the investment strategies of funds are mostly medium and long-term. Generally speaking, if the fund is optimistic about the prospect of a blue-chip stock, they will invest in the medium and long term, and will not sell the stock easily, thus forming a supported and often growing stock price.
