#今日市场观点 The US stock market experienced an "epic" plunge! Buffett's company was "looted", and the frequent collapse of the New York Stock Exchange system has aroused global doubts
On Monday local time, the US stock market set off an unprecedented storm. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway A shares, the representative of this investment giant, plummeted by an astonishing 99.97% in just a few minutes! The stock, which was originally worth $620,000 per share, was traded at $185, like a "battle royale" in the financial world.
The speed and magnitude of this plunge are staggering. If the transaction is completed at this price, Buffett's wealth will evaporate hundreds of billions of dollars in an instant! However, it is incredible that such a transaction is still traded!
At first, people thought that there was something wrong with Mr. Buffett, or it was another "wrong finger" incident. Historically, similar trading errors are not uncommon, such as the 610,000 yen sale of a share of Mizuho Securities in Japan, and the "wrong finger" incident of A-share Everbright Securities.
However, as the investigation deepened, people found that this was not a simple mistake. In addition to Berkshire, several other companies also suffered similar plunges. This triggered widespread speculation in the market, and ultimately pointed to a possible reason - a malfunction in the trading system.
Berkshire and other companies quickly posted the M code and suspended volatility trading. The New York Stock Exchange also issued an announcement that it was investigating the technical problems that had occurred. This series of events can't help but raise serious doubts about the stability and reliability of the US financial industry.
Not long ago, the US stock market experienced a similar "strike". Last Thursday, the Dow Jones Industrial and S&P 500 indexes suddenly stopped real-time quotes during the session for 80 minutes. The status of these two indexes is equivalent to the Shanghai Composite Index and Shenzhen Component Index of A-shares. However, the US side does not seem to pay enough attention to this, but only lightly stated that there was a problem with the network connection.
Now, just one trading day later, the US stock market has staged such a farce again. As a global financial center, the United States not only has strong economic and political strength, but also should have mature systems and stable systems as a guarantee.However, the recent performance of the US financial industry has been surprising, with trading systems frequently crashing, making people wonder whether it has become a "grassroots team".
For such system failures, the market generally believes that the relevant transactions are likely to be deemed invalid. However, regardless of whether these abnormal transactions count, the perception of the US stock market may need to be refreshed. In contrast, although our A-share market also has many unsatisfactory aspects, it is at least worthy of recognition in terms of the stability of the trading system. This also makes us wonder: Is the "golden signboard" of the US financial industry still trustworthy?
