v3 Chapter 676： Enduring foundation (1/2)
At 11 o'clock in the morning, George Berkeley returned home with a load.
With a price of 69 million pounds, he won 23.7% of Sam Nelson's equity.
In the past two days, the Bright Fund won another minority shareholder and acquired a 1.5% stake in Sotheby's auction house.
Together with the original equity, Bright Fund now holds a total of 83.9% of the equity, costing £202 million.
The result is no suspense.
Looking at the equity certificate and equity transfer contract that George Berkeley got back, Xia Yu smiled.
”George, next I will invest money to transform Sotheby's auction house. The current market value is too low. Delist Sotheby's auction house and strive for completion in ten days.”
Xia Yu put down the contract, smiled and ordered George Berkeley.
”Ok!”
George Berkeley nodded in response.
Xia Yu pondered for a moment, and then told him: ”Push Eskenazi Co., Ltd. a few more times to cause them more trouble!”
He didn't want to spend any more time with the Eskenazi family, and forced them out early, completed the plan early and returned to Xiangjiang.
George Berkeley took the order.
As soon as the London Stock Exchange opened in the afternoon, a piece of news caused an uproar among many people.
Bright Fund acquired all the shares in the hands of Sam Nielsen, the largest shareholder, with a shareholding ratio of 83.9%, and applied to the exchange for privatization. The exchange has formally approved it.
Many investors who were expecting Sotheby's auction house's share price to soar like Eskenazy Ltd. were dumbfounded.
But looking at the Sotheby's auction house, which has been suspended, they can only accept this fact unwillingly.
There is only one way out for them, waiting for the Bright Fund to announce the privatization price, and then sell the shares to them.
in the afternoon.
After work, Xia Yu did not go to Huashang Bank, but to the Financial Times Group.
Because the financial index he asked Clyde Albert to do before has finally taken shape after repeated inspections and bug checks, and it will be released soon!
Such an important historical moment, Xia Yu, as the creator in the practical sense, will certainly not miss it.
The fifth floor of the Financial Times Group, FTSE Index Co., Ltd.
Clyde Albert confidently introduced Xia Yu about the company's situation and the research results of the FTSE 100 Index and FTSE 250 Index.
He also asked the R&D team to test the advancement and representativeness of the two indexes on site.
It is not worse than the previous life, and even because Xia Yu knows more mature FTSE index information, the index that has not been released now is more advanced and scientific than the first released in the previous life.
After reading it, Xia Yu immediately ordered Clyde Albert to hold a press conference as soon as possible to build momentum for the FTSE Index.
Although the Financial Times Group has the No. 1 magazine in the UK financial sector, The Economist, and the No. 1 authoritative newspaper, the Financial Times, these two platforms are enough to make the FTSE Index come out at a very high starting point.
But Xia Yu knows what the FTSE index means to the UK financial sector. It is best for him to allow the FTSE index to spread as quickly as possible and to establish influence and authority, even if it is worth the price.
For the boss Xia Yu's decision, Clyde Albert agreed with both hands and immediately implemented it.
At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, the press conference officially began. Under the money offensive, various media rushed in and crowded the entire conference site.
After the press conference, the major TV stations were the first to report, and in the noon news, the FTSE index was reported.
Then the Evening News and the Evening News continued to report that the FTSE Index was directly heated up, causing heated discussions among the public.
More and more people are paying attention to this matter.
By the early morning of the third day, both the Financial Times and The Economist published the FTSE 100 Index and the FTSE 250 Index.
The first to learn is the people in the financial industry. These people have strong discernment. After a simple deduction, they immediately discovered the professionalism and representativeness of the FTSE Index, and then immediately organized the company's elite to conduct a comprehensive verification.
The result of the verification is self-evident.
The FTSE index can reflect the movement of the London stock market the fastest!
FTSE Indices can provide a great help for investors in stock selection!
Especially for those investors who don't understand it, there is unparalleled help.
Even the financial elites of major companies say yes, do you still need to question it?
The previous stock picks were dizzy and may not have chosen the right stocks.
It doesn't matter now, there are FTSE 100 Index and FTSE 250 Index.
After rigorous investigation and analysis, the FTSE index companies have eliminated most of the thunder for them. Now they can be completely free of brains. Just close your eyes and catch the 100 constituent stocks of the FTSE 100 index. Just buying the 250 constituent stocks of the FTSE 250 has a higher probability of making money than blindly choosing.
The FTSE Index is on fire, and it’s still on fire!
On the day of the release, twelve financial institutions sent cooperation applications to FTSE Index.
And the sales of The Economist magazine and the Financial Times newspaper also rushed to a peak.
The FTSE index will reach the top as soon as it is released. As long as the level is maintained, the London stock market and European stock market will be branded with the FTSE index, and the Financial Times Group will be invincible!
