Chapter 92: 68 Brother's Self-Awakening
"There is definitely some news, but I don't know whether it will be announced today or tomorrow morning." Gu Junhao judged after reviewing the market after the closing.
I also made a small profit today. Dongfang Wealth had a bald and barefoot positive line today, closing at 17.60 yuan. The trading volume was slightly larger than that in the morning, with a total daily turnover of 108 million yuan.
As for the previous holding stock, Dafu Technology, it still shined today, with an amplitude of 11.86% throughout the day, a trading volume of 688 million yuan, a turnover rate of 6.88% and a final increase of 6.79%, making the Dafu Technology stock trading area very lively.
Countless small retail investors posted screenshots of their holdings that showed they made huge profits from bargain hunting today. They seemed to be possessed by the stock god, and the joy revealed in their words could be felt through the screen.
"I wish them good luck, they should be able to make money." Tomorrow is the last trading day of this month. Judging from today's rebound, there is a high probability that the market will continue tomorrow. Even if not, there will be a surge.
The funds that bought the bottom underwater today at Dafu Technology have made as much as 10% profit, and as little as five or six points. Dafu Technology has followed the index in the past two days, so it should have a surge tomorrow.
It was not time for lunch yet, and there were no major news announcements in the market. There were quite a few rumors and calls from some big Vs, but Gu Junhao was too lazy to read them, so he opened his own post on Taoguba, wanting to see what replies he had received after he announced yesterday that he had liquidated his positions.
As soon as I opened the post, what caught my eye was the message with the highest number of replies, which was posted at noon today.
The post was a bit long. It was the reply from a man jokingly called Brother 68. Gu Junhao took a look at it and found that Brother 68's reply was very eloquent.
"Hello everyone, I am Brother 68, an ordinary retail investor, also known as a small leek. My main job is a workshop worker, and I am as ordinary as can be. I entered the stock market by chance, and since then I have become a small leek at the mercy of others, and I have lost a lot of money in the early stage."
"I feel listless at work every day, and I keep thinking about my stocks. Due to work reasons, I can't check the market regularly. Even if the stocks fall, I have no chance to sell them. I can only bear the losses. My life is miserable."
"I entered Taogu.com by chance and saw that everyone was losing money just like me. I felt much better all of a sudden. Is this what they say, that it's harder to see others making money than to lose money yourself? The stock market is really against human nature."
"After I met Brother T on Taogu.com, I watched him grow bigger and bigger. I couldn't help but follow him to buy and make money. I thought that even with such a large amount of money, he dared to go all in. I would lose money anyway, so I might as well lose money with him. That's why I got the code name Brother 68."
"The idea is simple, right? Sometimes we leeks have such simple thinking. It was this all-in bet that made me make up for my previous losses and even made a small profit. Then everyone knows that I followed Brother T again and bet all in on Dafu Technology. Yesterday, when I saw Brother T's post about clearing his position, I did not hesitate to place an overnight order at the then closing price of 35.50 yuan."
"I also successfully sold it today. Although I didn't get a high price, I am still very happy. At this price, I have 6,300 shares and I have received more than 220,000 yuan in funds. I am very satisfied. Now I have enough money for the betrothal gift."
"Thank you so much, Brother T, for changing my life. If it weren't for this money, I don't know when I could get married. I'm quite satisfied with my current blind date, but I couldn't get enough money for the betrothal gift before. Now, I can get married."
"After this period of stock trading, I have deeply realized that I am not cut out for this. If I hadn't been lucky enough to follow Brother T, I don't know how much I would have lost with the recent decline. So after Brother T stopped publishing his holdings, I decided to withdraw from the stock market. After I took out the money, I closed my account and worked hard and lived seriously from now on."
"By the way, because of the rise in stocks, I have become more active at work. In the past few months, I have been promoted to team leader and my salary has also increased to a certain extent. Please bless me. I am an ordinary person. The stock market is not suitable for me. A stable life is my ultimate destination."
"We are destined to meet again, and we shall never see each other again. Finally, thank you again, Brother T. Although we have never met, you have really helped me a lot. If I have the chance I would like to treat you to wedding candy."
Gu Junhao carefully read this extremely long message from Brother 68 and was filled with emotion. If it is true as he said, and he can decisively withdraw from the stock market after recognizing himself, it would be a great wisdom.
Although he will miss the bull market in 2015, a bull market is not necessarily a good thing for a retail investor who does not understand the stock market. Many people often lose their money in the bull market. It can be seen from Brother 68's words that Brother 68's financial situation should not be too good. If the loss is really too big, it will definitely have a big impact on his life.
After thinking for a while, Gu Junhao also replied: "Congratulations, brother 68. In my opinion, the stock market is not suitable for everyone. I admire you very much for making such a decision. The stock market goes up and down. If one day in the future you hear that the stock market has risen, you will regret it. Remember to come back and read your post and think about your mood at that time. In addition, I wish you a smooth and healthy life in the future."
Gu Junhao was also giving Brother 68 a friendly reminder about how crazy the late bull market in 2015 was. He believed that no one in the world knew it better than himself.
It is not easy to exit the stock market. Many people have thought about quitting, but they eventually come back. Some have made money, some have lost money, but they never leave.
Afterwards, Gu Junhao casually looked at other people's replies. Su Mingyu also left a message, but he did not sell it himself. He told himself this on QQ. He still wanted to stick to his idea .
Although most people feel it is a pity that they no longer disclose their holdings, they also express their understanding. After all, they have a large amount of funds and they are not like hot money who trade overnight, so they do not need to worry about exposing their holdings.
…
After get off work, Liu Lixin turned on his computer, logged into Taoguba, and opened Gu Junhao's post again. He saw that his comment had been liked and replied by countless people, including Gu Junhao's reply, and he felt calm inside.
I have been in contact with the stock market for nearly two years. Only I know my life in these two years, especially the early period of losses. I used to go out with friends occasionally to sing and drink.
Ever since I started trading stocks, I haven't had any entertainment activities. All the money I earned is used to cover my positions. I usually live a tight life and can't even afford a good meal.
All of this was caused by the losses after entering the stock market. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to meet Brother T, who pulled me back after two transactions in half a year. Otherwise, I don’t know how long I would have sunk, let alone get married.
The moment I decided to quit, I felt like I relaxed, as if I was back to my previous state, or even better. Some people are suited to an ordinary life, and I am one of them.
"Thank you, Brother T. I will remember you." Liu Lixin whispered to the screen.
I didn't reply to any comments. I turned off my computer. After withdrawing the money tomorrow, I would delete the stock trading software and find some time to go to the business department to close my account.
There are tens of millions of retail investors like Liu Lixin in the stock market, but not many are as lucky and decisive as Liu Lixin. Countless losses and profits are happening among tens of millions of investors, just as time will not stop.
Human nature is greedy. Gu Junhao never thought about saving anyone, nor could he save anyone. Liu Lixin's withdrawal was more of his personal decision.
Liu Ruihuan also liquidated his stocks today, but he was not as lucky as Liu Lixin. He sneaked into the toilet to sell his stocks during his free time at work in the morning, which happened to coincide with the underwater fluctuations of Dafu Technology. He sold them at a price of 34 yuan, almost near the lowest point, and suffered a daily loss of nearly 3,000 yuan.
But he did sell a lot, and he made a net profit of 28,000 yuan for 2,000 shares at a price of 34 yuan, with a return rate of 70%. Liu Ruihuan breathed a sigh of relief after the sales. This stock was too stimulating and too stressful every day, so it was better to put the money in the pocket.
"It's sold. I feel relieved." Liu Ruihuan sneaked to Zhang Yiru's workstation and said softly.
"What was sold?" Zhang Yiru was working and didn't react for a moment, so she asked back.
"The guy in your family is really good at selling stocks. The price plummeted today after he sold them. I sold them for 4 yuan less than him, a difference of 8,000 yuan." Liu Ruihuan curled her lips and said, to be honest, it still hurt a little, but it didn't matter, she made a lot of money anyway.
"Ah? It dropped so much? But it doesn't matter, you made a lot of money, so think positively." Zhang Yiru didn't pay attention to these. She only knew that Xiao Gu sold it at around 38 yuan yesterday. Huanhuan said that he sold it 4 yuan less, so today he made around 34 yuan, which was nearly 12% different from the price Xiao Gu sold it at.
But think about it, the price had already fallen to 35.50 yuan yesterday, so it wouldn't be surprising if it dropped another dollar today.
"Well, no, I just admire your guy. He made money, so I'll treat you to dinner tonight. Do you want to invite your guy?"
"No need for that. You bought and sold this yourself. You don't have to treat me to a meal." Zhang Yiru thought her best friend wanted to thank her boyfriend, but that was unnecessary.
"It's okay, it has nothing to do with this. We sisters haven't had dinner together for a long time. We are happy this time."
"Okay, then let's have a good get-together as sisters. Don't call Xiao Gu anymore. I'll talk to him in the evening." After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yiru replied.
"Okay, we won't feel comfortable with a man around. That's settled. I'll go back to my workstation." Liu Ruihuan said and left happily. Sure enough, her mood was different after selling the stocks.
Gu Junhao didn't know what had happened. He only knew that Zhang Yiru was going to get together with her best friends tonight. After eating dinner alone, she returned to her residence. After playing games for a while, she didn't want to watch the news anymore, so she washed up and went to bed.
