To understand this problem, let us first see what inspiration we can get from a classic story in the financial circle. Look below...
It's a lazy day in a hot American town. The sun is high, the streets are deserted, and everyone is heavily in debt and living on credit.
At this time, a tourist came from China. He entered a hotel, took out a 1,000 US dollar bill and put it on the counter, saying that he wanted to look at the rooms first and choose a suitable one to spend the night.
As the man went upstairs, the shopkeeper grabbed the $1,000 bill and ran to the butcher next door to pay for the meat he owed.
With $1,000, the butcher crossed the street and paid off the pig farmer’s pig capital.
The pig farmer took $1,000 and went out to pay the feed he owed.
The man who sold feed got 1,000 US dollars and hurriedly paid off the prostitute he hired (the economy was in recession, and the local service industry had to provide credit services).
Armed with $1,000, the prostitute rushed to the hotel to pay what she owed.
The hotel owner hurriedly put the 1,000 US dollars on the counter to prevent the Tangshan tourists who had just checked the room from becoming suspicious when they came downstairs.
At this time, the tourist was coming downstairs, picked up 1,000 US dollars, and claimed that none of the rooms were satisfactory. He put the money in his pocket and left...
On this day, there was no No matter what people produced, no one got anything, but the debts of the whole town were cleared and everyone was very happy...
What does this story tell us? Answer: This is finance. Funds must circulate to generate value! And economic data is just a game!
This game can be big or small, as small as an individual, a group, an institution, an organization, or as large as a country.
It is also said that the essence of finance is to turn the money in your pocket into the money in my pocket. The problem comes again
Similarly, we also learned from another small financial Let’s see what inspiration you can get from the story.
Look down...
There is a small village at the foot of Fortune Mountain. Every ten years, five hundred young people in the village go to the mountain to hunt for treasure, because it is said that there is a lot of gold on the top of the mountain, but Only a handful of people come back alive. There was an old man who had climbed to the top of the mountain when he was young, so a young man named Dumb was very timid, so he ran to ask the old man how he could get the gold and come back alive. The old man told him: "There is indeed gold on the top of the mountain, but you have to pass through the hordes of crocodiles in the river at the foot of the mountain, the black panthers that come out to eat people's heads in the middle of the night, and finally the fire-breathing dragon on the top of the mountain. If you can reach it, You can go down from the other side of the top of the mountain. The journey is smooth but there is no gold. As for whether you can come back or not, it depends on your life. But the old man sent three notes to Ah-Dai, asking Ah-Dai to open them when he is in danger.
The next day, Ah-Dai set off with more than 500 other people. When they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw a lot of evil fish with big mouths in the river, so a group of brave young people jumped out The river tried its best to reach the other side, but these crocodiles were very ferocious and hungry, and batches of young people were swallowed up by the crocodiles. Dumb was frightened when he saw it, and hurriedly opened the first note, which read: "Wait until everyone else jumps in." , the crocodile will naturally stop eating when it is full, and you can cross the river slowly. "In this way, Duan and the 200 people who had a chance to escape crossed the foot of the mountain together. After coming to the foot of the mountain, everyone saw scattered gold coins on the road. Everyone was very happy, picking them up and hurried on. After a few days, everyone arrived On the mountainside, everyone was excited and tired. They all fell asleep quickly when they went to bed at night. Suddenly, there was a scream, and several black panthers jumped out of the woods and took away several sleeping young people. Everyone had no time to react. Those few people had been taken back and eaten by the black panther. Everyone was very scared, but no one was willing to go down the mountain because they expected to pick up more gold. However, everyone was very tired and could not continue on their way if they did not sleep. Might be eaten by a panther. When everyone was at a loss, Dui opened the second note, which read: "When most people are awake, you can sleep peacefully." When most people are sleeping, you need to be awake. “In this way, people were eaten by black panthers every night, but Dui survived and continued to move forward with a hundred other living people, picking up the gold coins dropped by his dead companions.
Finally, they came to the top of the mountain. There were no gold coins on the top of the mountain. Suddenly a red fire dragon jumped out from behind the boulder on the top of the mountain and breathed flames at the people who were looking for gold coins. Many people were burned and were still running around looking for gold coins on the ground. Some people actually used wooden sticks to hit the dragon, but they were all burned to death and gold coins were scattered everywhere. At this time, Dumb quickly opened the third note and saw it said: "Don't think about anything, run for your life." Dui threw away the note, turned around and ran down the mountain road. He didn't care to pick up the gold coins he saw along the way. After running far away, he turned around and saw only a few young people who had come with him running out behind him. Most of them were injured. . Finally, Dumb returned home with a bag of gold coins.
? Dumb thanked the old man for the life-saving note and gave half of the gold to the old man. The old man insisted not to take it and said: "These golds are yours." Dumb said: "No, only a small amount of gold belongs to me. Yes, most of the gold was dropped by the dead companions on the top of the mountain. "At this time, the old man was silent for a moment and said something to Ah-Dai: "Let me tell you, there are gold coins in the soil at the foot of the mountain, but there are actually only gold coins on the top of the mountain. The evil dragon has no gold coins. Every ten years, the evil dragon will pick up the gold coins dropped by the dead people on the top of the mountain and scatter them at the foot of the mountain and the mountainside. This will attract new young people to the top of the mountain for it to enjoy.
? 1. Crocodile & Black Panther & Fire Dragon are the so-called "main force" and institutions. At the foot of the mountain, if they don't collect enough chips, you can't even think about going up; when you get to the middle of the mountain, find a way to let the profitable chips wash away. If it falls, it will not affect the subsequent layout; there are really a few retail investors who have made it all the way to the top, and it is not that easy to make a profit.
? 2. Without risk control ability, blindly entering the stock market is likely to be a gold digger. The point of no return. Radicals are buried at the foot of the mountain, those who follow the trend and lack reverse thinking are thrown off the mountainside, and those who are greedy and crazy die on the top of the mountain.
? 3. Most of the gold comes from dead companions, which means two. The profits in the secondary market do not come from the growth returns of listed companies, but from the principal chips lost by other participants in the stock price fluctuations. They are bloody profits. Therefore, it is very important to sell high and buy low, and to think independently and reversely.
4. The first note refers to waiting patiently for the safety margin; the second note refers to keeping a distance from the masses and thinking in reverse; the third note refers to cashing in chips and reducing positions during the bubble period. The most important thing is to keep the fruits of victory and give up greed when danger arises.
