▌ "Bao Zong Concept Stock" Xinhua Media once had three boards in five days. What is the current situation of Shanghai's "old stereotypes" behind the first pot of gold?
Compared with the original work, the TV series "Flowers" has a richer storyline and a more vivid and detailed description of the early stages of the development of my country's securities market. Stock critic Ying Jianzhong said that "Flowers" depicts the magnificent scene of the participation of millions of people from 1992 to 1993 when my country's securities market just started. The listed companies that appear in the drama are all based on reality . For example, in the last few episodes, the clothing company where the male protagonist Mr. Bao went through a crazy fight was based on the Shanghai Fashion Co., Ltd. located on Nanjing East Road in Shanghai, with the stock code of 600825. As the years change, the assets of listed companies continue to undergo reorganization, from fashion shares to Hualian Supermarket. ’s current stock name has been changed to Xinhua Media . It is the only large-scale media company in China that spans the publishing and newspaper management industries. It is also the first stock issued by China Publishing.
Just today, Xinhua Media quickly raised the daily limit at the opening of the market, once achieving three boards in five days , and ended up rising 1.36%. Beijing Satellite TV financial commentator Guo Tao told Blue Whale reporters that the craze for "flower concept stocks" reflects investors' blind pursuit of hot topics and events, as well as their desire for potential investment opportunities. However, the popularity of "Flower Concept Stocks" has a certain short-term and speculative nature. Investors should remain rational and avoid risks caused by blind investment..
Of course, there are many stocks that Mr. Bao has bought in "Flowers". For example, Mr. Bao's first pot of gold came from a stock called Dian Vacuum, which is actually Vacuum Electronics in the "Old Eight Stock". It is reported that the "Electronic Vacuum" paper stock became a "large-cap stock" as soon as it was listed. Among the old eight stocks in the Shanghai stock market at that time, the combined capital amount and trading volume of the other seven stocks were less than half. Looking back at that time, the Shanghai Stock Exchange opened on December 19, 1990. Feile Audio, Electric Vacuum, Yanzhong Industrial, Aishi Shares, Shenhua Electric, Feile Shares, and Yuyuan Mall, these seven local Shanghai stocks, plus Phoenix Chemical, an off-site listed company represented by Zhejiang Securities, were jointly listed. It is called the "old stereotype" of China's securities market.
analysts said that many of the "old stereotypes" of have also kept pace with the times or have been eliminated by . Even now Xinhua Media is facing the embarrassment of a sluggish main business, which can be regarded as the epitome of Shanghai's "old stereotypes". For example, Yanzhong Industrial has become Founder Technology, and Vacuum Electronics has become Yunsai Zhilian. However, even if the main business has changed, the operating performance of these companies does not seem to have changed completely. Among the listed companies that can only leave memories, those that have not changed their names include Feile Audio and Yuyuan Holdings. Among them, the only one whose main business has remained almost unchanged is Yuyuan Shares, but now the most profitable business of Yuyuan Shares is gold, not general commercial circulation.
