Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 198 Artist Thinking

Compared with the thriving prosperity of Hollywood, Wall Street continues to be jittery.

The Nasdaq stock market crash is still spreading, and even the New York Stock Exchange is in shock. The bubble crisis is developing into a broader economic crisis.

And when all the high-tech stocks collectively fell, one high-tech stock had a strange rebound.

After more than half a month of growth against the market, the stock price has also risen from US$9.9 to US$13.8!

The increase is close to 50%!

This stock is precisely Apple, which has been abandoned by many investment institutions and securities institutions.

Since the stock was split into two on June 21, Apple's stock price has been rising all the way, which surprised a large number of retail investors. Does splitting stocks still have this effect? Or is there something special about Jobs?

Of course, it is very abnormal for those who really understand the stock market and the market to understand.

It would be fine if it happened in a bull market, but now it is a bear market, and Apple, a computer company that all large investment institutions are not optimistic about, can grow against the market during the stock market crash?

nonsense!

This abnormal performance must have been caused by investment institutions behind the scenes increasing their holdings of the company's stock.

Who is it?

On July 13, the mystery was revealed.

The Federal Securities Regulatory Commission, NASDAQ, and Apple issued statements almost simultaneously. In the past half a month, Tang En Capital bought more than 20 million shares of Apple in the secondary market.

So far, Tang En Capital's total shareholding has accounted for 5.06% of Apple's total share capital!

Apple's development process has been very ups and downs, and it has been abandoned by investors several times. The earliest investors have already sold out their stocks. So now Apple has no major shareholders, and more than 80% of the shares are in the hands of retail investors.

Prior to this, Apple's largest shareholder was the state pension fund, which accounted for 3% of Apple's total share capital.

Apple's founder, chairman, and CEO Jobs also only has 6 million shares, which is less than 2% of the total share capital.

Tang En Capital's inexplicable move this time immediately became Apple's largest shareholder!

As we all know, Tang En is behind Tang En Capital!

Tang En is now a household name in the United States, and his reputation is no less than that of President Clinton. His every move is under the close attention of the media.

Especially... As early as two months ago, Tang En had been named the stock god of the new century by Wall Street!

Is there any other meaning behind Tang En's sudden attack this time?

Even the stock gods are optimistic about Apple stock, shouldn't investors flock in?

Apple was excited, the stock exchange was excited, and Wall Street investment institutions felt that there was another major omission in Dunn's investment choices. But... After all, he took out cash, nearly 300 million US dollars, and invested in Apple, which brought some hope to the stock market crash.

At this time, Wall Street will definitely give Twain a firm stand.

This is the first time after the Nasdaq stock market crash, an investment institution has attempted to rescue an established high-tech company in crisis, and it has directly purchased stocks from the secondary market, which shows its sincerity!

For this reason, the major media on Wall Street have publicized this "special" investment event, making Apple, a company that is not optimistic by rating agencies and venture capital agencies, instantly become the most popular company at the moment!

On the same day, Apple's stock price rose by 7.6%, becoming an alternative existence of the entire high-tech company group.

"Apple Undervalued? Tang En showed his favor to Apple! "

"Town Capital makes another move, Apple stock is bullish! "

"Savior? Tang En wanted to turn the tide during the bubble crisis! "

"Famous director Twain invests again, targeting Apple! "

"High-tech stocks are still saved, Dunn Walker continues to go against the market. "

...

There is no doubt that such a large-scale operation must be performed by a person with extraordinary courage.

However, people with real brains will not be fooled by media public opinion.

Tang En's operations on Yahoo stock in the past made everyone in the industry tremble with fear.

Maybe it was a coincidence, but it was Tang En who sold a large number of stocks in the secondary market without limit, which caused Yahoo's stock price to plummet in a short period of time.

Now that Tang En is buying Apple stocks, will he have the same thoughts as before?

First buy a large number of stocks to form a bullish trend, then sell them all, and secretly sell short...

In order to prevent this kind of malicious short selling, which seriously affects the stability of the company's stock price, the company usually comes forward to negotiate with investors.

Take enough interest, or absorb it into the board of directors, or meet some of its requirements, and reach an agreement to prevent him from selling a large amount in a short period of time.

This kind of thing, the head of Apple Steve Jobs can be described as experienced.

That year, Apple acquired NEXT, and Jobs received $120 million and Apple stock worth $37 million at the time.

However, the purpose of Jobs selling NEXT is not for money, but for power and dignity. He wants to regain control of Apple!

Apple's CEO at the time was Palo Alto.

Jobs' method was very simple. On June 27, 1997, an anonymous sell-off of 1.5 million shares caused Apple's stock price to fall to its lowest point in nearly ten years!

In a blink of an eye, in July, Jobs launched a coup on the board of directors, successfully won Palo Alto, and successfully took over.

And it turned out afterwards that the sale of that large amount of stock came from Jobs!

The current Apple company is not favored by any venture capital institutions. The advice given to investors by rating agencies is: reduce holdings.

Behind Tang En's sudden and abnormal behavior, there was a hint of conspiracy everywhere.

If Dunn had other ideas, he could easily replace Steve Jobs!

Tang En is the reason why Apple's stock price is soaring now. He is now Apple's largest shareholder, and with his reputation and influence, he will definitely be able to win the support of more shareholders at the shareholders' meeting.

Now, Tang En, as a major shareholder, proposed to hold a general meeting of shareholders, which has been approved by Apple's board of directors. The general meeting of shareholders will be held at the end of this month.

Before that, Jobs must meet and chat with Tang En in advance to find out what kind of thoughts this young man has in mind.

In the past period of time, Twain has successively become shareholders of companies such as Hasbro, Google, and X.com, but he has not participated in the operation of the company, and has a good reputation in the industry.

If he had such an attitude at Apple, then Jobs would wake up laughing at night from his dreams!

...

Just as Tang En predicted, he soon received a private email from Steve Jobs, inviting Tang En to meet.

It's just that the location is very interesting, choosing the famous Golden Gate Bridge.

Unlike the Bay Bridge in Silicon Valley, the Golden Gate Bridge has sidewalks. When the lanterns first come on, the lights here are bright, and many young entrepreneurs like to sit on this vermilion bridge, looking at the blue sea and white waves below, and talk about their ideals in life.

The magnificent, but unpretentious Golden Gate Bridge represents the voice of some entrepreneurs.

There are successes and failures here.

The Golden Gate Bridge is the largest suicide rally in the United States!

Tang En was a little amused by Jobs' choice, it really was an artist's thinking, and he couldn't keep up!

especially……

The guy's scheduled time is 7 o'clock in the evening, which happens to be when the lights first come on.

Two old men tour the Golden Gate Bridge...

Sure enough, there is emotion!
