The Stock Exchange Market is the Ninth Wonder in the World

There are many kinds of investment targets, such as gold, antiques, works of art, real estate, early start-ups, stocks of listed companies.

Maybe you don’t know that in today’s highly developed finance, even brand sneakers are investable.

However, the investment we are talking about here, especially the object of investment using fixed investment, refers to:

The stocks of listed companies that can be bought and traded on the trading market, or index funds, ETF (traded open index funds) that can be purchased on the trading market, and so on.

In my opinion, the traditional stock market definitely deserves to be called the ninth wonder of the world-in addition to the recognized seven wonders of the world, Einstein once called compound interest the eighth wonder of the world.

The stock exchange market provides an excellent opportunity for ordinary people to “it would not have been possible without it”. What opportunity?

To put it more colloquially, it is the opportunity for anyone to be a boss.

Why would you say that?

We are attracted by all kinds of entrepreneurial stories every day, because the protagonist in the story is said to be born at the grass roots but finally completed a counterattack, becoming the founder, leader of a unicorn, or the chairman of a listed company.

stirring!

The problem is that this is not a suitable path for ordinary people.

Now that they have been proved to be able to create so much business value, they are not ordinary people-they are extremely excellent people, whether they come from the grassroots or not, whether they are poor or not, success itself only proves that they are people with the characteristics of success.

In the discussion that follows, you will also be able to clearly see a cold fact:

Even for people who are so good and work so hard, their ultimate success depends more on luck-they need to have enough luck to get the support of the trend.

Even if you work in a public company, you can’t get rid of the influence of luck on you.

If you happen to join a “company that can go public in the future” at an early stage, it’s definitely luck.

However, if you read too many examples, you will understand that when the company goes public, the probability of being able to keep up with it in terms of concept, ability, relationship and being reused all the time is actually very low.

Before the listing of such an excellent company, even if you can successfully apply for a job there, it is not something that ordinary people can do. You should have the right age, sufficient education, and ability to be needed by the company at that time.

Just ask those who work in a listed company to see how many of them actually hold shares in the company, apart from a lot of pressure.

If you don’t have stock in the company, it means that no matter how hard you try, the development of the company has nothing to do with you.

However, because of the existence of the stock exchange, whoever it is — regardless of race, nationality, region, gender, age, height, height, weight, beauty, ugliness, or sexual orientation — can buy shares of the best companies in the world at any point in time.

Let your money grow with the best companies in the world 24 hours a day-this is the real quality “fight”!

What is particularly amazing is that under normal circumstances, as investors, these ordinary people do not need to do anything extra-to buy shares in the best companies in the world, with almost no threshold!

Ordinary people’s money is unlikely to have any effective value-added opportunities, because it is very difficult for ordinary people to create real commercial value.

Only a very small number of people in the crowd are doing everything they can to create business value to change their destiny, and finally succeed in doing so.

Although there are junk enterprises in the stock exchange market, after all, they are strictly screened out according to certain standards, and most of the talents who are really good at creating business value are concentrated there.

As long as ordinary people buy shares in good companies with their own money, it means that ordinary people are instantly promoted to bosses, and those who are best at creating business value are working for these ordinary people-even if they are in fact “incompetent bosses”.

People always think that “choosing stocks” is a very difficult thing-in fact, it is not difficult at all!

Because the so-called “difficulty” is entirely caused by habitual thinking, in fact, it is simply the result of people always refusing or daring to use the simplest, direct, rough and effective methods.

This method is too simple, unbelievably simple:

Directly choose the stocks that everyone likes best in the market.

If you are on the New York Stock Exchange, you can buy Alibaba directly.

If you’re on NASDAQ, you just buy apples,

If you are in HKEx, you can buy Tencent directly.

This is the magic of the trading market-where you can take advantage of the wisdom of others.

As you have seen just now, ordinary people with very little money can get the best people in the best companies in the world to make money for them!

You know what’s even more amazing?

What’s even more amazing is that you can ask the smartest people in the whole market to help you choose.

Wouldn’t you?

Don’t you understand?

Don’t you think you’re stupid?

Don’t you take a lot of time to learn, even if you’re not stupid?

In fact, you think too much, because it doesn’t matter-don’t you admire Buffett?

Then you go directly to buy the company he is holding, which is tantamount to letting Buffett think for you for free.

Of course, Buffett is not necessarily the best, so what?

You can directly choose the one that everyone likes.

This is what I just said, Vanke, Maotai, Apple and Tencent are all varieties that the smartest people in the market have chosen for you-and the advice from these smartest people is completely free!

There is no doubt about this zero-cost judgment.

If the market’s most promising target fails in the end, in fact you have nothing to complain about-because that’s already the best advice!

By the same token, when China Tobacco International is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2019, you can just buy it!

Because it is the company with the most cash production capacity in China!

You know what the most amazing thing is?

This method, which is the simplest, direct, rude and certainly effective, is not adopted by more than 99% of people!

Let me show you a piece of data to see how amazing this “most amazing” is.

According to statistics on March 31, 2019, the total number of shareholders of Guizhou Moutai (600519) was 80594 — the total number of accounts opened in China’s stock market in the same period was about 150 million, which is about 5/10000 of the total — there are also a large number of institutional investors, that is to say, among ordinary people, perhaps less than 1/10000 of people dare to use this simple, direct, rude but extremely effective principle.

Do you know what the effect will be if you choose the most favored target in the market?

Next, you don’t need research, you don’t need analysis, you don’t need to watch alone, you don’t even need to discuss it with anyone at all, in fact, you don’t have to do anything, because all of this is done for you by the smartest people on the market, and it’s free!

This is definitely the highest level of investors in the modern trading market.

Rumor has it that the life of Maotai shareholders is also very simple, that is, reading, fitness, traveling, and spending time with their families.

This is true.

So shouldn’t the stock market be called the ninth wonder of the world?
