Chapter 362： response (1/2)

”Damn upstart!”

”Damn little dwarf!”

”Damn Yankee!”

”All the bad water!”

In the luxurious living room of the Keswick family, Old John, Niu Bijian, and the two brothers Henry and Charles sat around the table. The youngest Charles Keswick could not help but yelled, obviously very angry.

Seeing the youngest son gaffe, Old John rarely did not educate him, because at this time he also looked ugly and very sad.

Just because they basically failed to return, at most, Old John used contacts and acquired 1.1% of the stock from the only minority shareholder, but the price was a premium of 100%. There was no way. The situation was urgent. Old John still gritted his teeth. Agreed, and the proportion of equity held by him was raised to 38.2%.

But despite the acquisition of 1.1% of the stock, the high price also hurt him, and it is foreseeable that the subsequent impact will be even greater.

After all, the premium was 100% at the beginning. Later, if you want to buy shares in the hands of other people, the price will only be high or not, especially for large shareholders with more shares in their hands.

No, everyone else has returned without success!

They all talked about their actions and situation just now, but the result was not optimistic.

Since the Galaxy Fund made a high-profile call to hold 30% of the Jardine Machine Group, although it is not known whether it is true or not, it is estimated that it is not much different.

In this way, the Galaxy Fund has become the second largest shareholder of Jardine Holdings alone, with an equity difference of 78% from their Keswick family.

With so many shares, it is absolutely impossible to buy through scattered stocks. Some of the top ten shareholders are definitely accomplices.

So Old John first checked and called one by one. Finally, statistics found that among the nine major shareholders other than himself, three shareholders were accomplices in selling shares to Xia Yu, and the remaining six shareholders did not sell. stock.

It's just that these six shareholders, each made Old John tricky, and made everyone touch their noses.

The second largest shareholder, Cummins, a power equipment manufacturing multinational company, holds 6.37%.

The third largest shareholder, Singapore Temasek Holdings, a Singapore state-owned enterprise under the guise of a private enterprise, holds 5.24% of the shares.

The fourth largest shareholder, Nomura Securities, which is now the top ten in the island country’s securities industry, and the number one in the island country, holds 4.99% of the shares.

The seventh largest shareholder, Daiwa Securities, holds 2.76% of the shares.

The ninth largest shareholder, Heung Kong Bank of China Investment, holds 2.54% of the shares.

The tenth largest shareholder, Goldman Sachs Group, holds 2.49%.

None of these six major shareholders are simple goods. Cummins, Nomura Securities, and Daiwa Securities all have giant consortia behind them.

Goldman Sachs Group itself is a multinational giant, one of the five largest investment banks on Wall Street.

Not to mention Temasek Holdings and HeungKong Bank of China. The former are Singapore state-owned enterprises under the cloak of private companies and are under the supervision of Singapore’s Ministry of Finance. The latter is the mainland’s presence in Hong Kong.

These six major shareholders, except for Cummins of the United States, because of business needs, they need to use the influence and strength of the Jardine Machinery Group in Southeast Asia and Australia to deepen the relationship.

The other five shareholders hold the Jardine Machines Group for almost all purposes of investment. These five shareholders are essentially the same, and they are all investment banking companies.

It stands to reason that for a listed company, the stronger the shareholders, the greater the benefits to the company, because the market will have more confidence in the company.

The five major shareholders of Jardine Machinery Group are still giants in the investment industry, and they can provide strong support for the Jardine Machinery Group's share price.

If it's a peaceful time, it's definitely good. Old John Bar doesn't have many such powerful partners.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages.

Don't forget that capitalists are also the most ruthless, and their interests are paramount.

What's more, these bright investment banks based on the principle that profits are above all else?
