Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1203 Opening

In the past two years, Los Angeles has gradually replaced Johannesburg as the distribution center for capital transactions throughout southern Africa.

The Rand Bank has played a huge role in this. Since Rock established the agricultural cooperative in Johannesburg 20 years ago, the agricultural cooperative has carried part of the financial functions.

Then the Rand Bank was established, and the finance in southern Africa became more and more mature.

After the Bank of Rhodesia and the Nyasaland Company appeared one after another, securities transactions also came naturally.

In fact, during the World War II, the Rand Bank undertook part of the national bonds issued by the British government and the Southern African Federal Government. Most of these national bonds were claimed by large companies in Southern Africa and did not circulate in the market.

The Los Angeles Stock Exchange is located on the Bigwig Road between the Nyasaland State Government and the Los Angeles City Government. This road is named after the biggonia trees planted on both sides of the road. Most of the people living around it are civil servants of the two levels of government in the city and city. , and corporate executives of large corporations.

Compared with the stock exchanges in London and New York, the Los Angeles Stock Exchange has stricter scrutiny on the listing of companies.

To be listed on the Los Angeles Stock Exchange, a company must have a pre-tax profit of 10 rand, issue and sell a minimum of [-] shares, and regularly announce the company's financial results before its shares are eligible to be listed on the exchange.

According to the requirements of the Los Angeles Stock Exchange, there are only 65 companies eligible to list on the Los Angeles Stock Exchange, more than half of which are related to Rock. The industry under Rock's name is very popular on the Los Angeles Stock Exchange. Yasaran Airlines and Edward Shipyard have successively offered 100 million shares to the market, and these stocks were swept away as soon as they appeared on the market.

October NO.14 is a Monday. At 100:[-] in the morning, the gate of the stock exchange is crowded with people rushing to buy stocks. Today, Nyasaland Military Industry also publicly offered [-] million shares. Those who know the news came to the stock exchange early , hoping to get on the train in time.

"As long as it is under the name of the lord, you can buy it with confidence. You can buy as much as you have. The Nyasaland Airlines I bought has reached the daily limit for three consecutive times. I don't know how much I can buy today—" said Jordan at the Rand Bank. Coming to the stock exchange early, he bought 1.5 shares of Nyasaland Air at a price of 120 rand per share. Now the stock has risen to 1.99 rand per share, and the value has increased from 180 rand when he bought it. At 238.8 rand so far, this is much better than going to work.

"Needless to say, it must be as much as you can buy—" Walter, who also works at Rand Bank, was full of envy. He and Jordan took time off today to buy stocks. The bank staff were more flexible in their thinking. This novel financial management method is quite acceptable.

Jordan looked at the crowd behind him and couldn't help sighing. Working at Rand Bank didn't provide much convenience for Jordan and Walter.

The establishment of the stock exchange in Los Angeles is to promote the circulation of funds in southern Africa, so it is necessary to attract scattered funds from the society. If there are no restrictions on the Rand Bank and Nyasaland Corporation, then I am afraid that these stocks will not be sold at all. There is no chance to circulate it to the market, and it will be directly digested internally.

"It's best to be careful. Stocks don't always go up. The situation in Nyasaland Military Industry is not very good recently. I only prepared 50 rand this time. It's best if it can go up. It doesn't matter if it doesn't go up. It's impossible to fall below The issue price." Jordan has a good attitude, and the recent situation of Nyasaland Military Industry is not very good, but it is not going to close down as rumored by the outside world.

During the World War, Nyasaland's military industry skyrocketed, providing weapons and ammunition for almost the entire Allied Powers.

With the end of the World War, the military industry generally shrank, and Nyasaland Military Industry also closed several factories a while ago, and the most core departments were retained.

In order to survive, the Nyasaland military industry also began to work hard to save itself. While developing new products, it also stimulated the demand of the civilian market. Not to mention other aspects, the output of tractors has been rising steadily, which is very popular in the market.

Of course, there are still some things that the outside world does not know. Although the world war is over, the world's demand for weapons and ammunition has not disappeared, and the demand in some areas has not decreased but increased. Few people know this news.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, the stock exchange officially opened, and a huge crowd rushed in, and all the trading desks were crowded with people.

In the major client trading room on the second floor, Nyasaland's traders Duke and Liang Chen were drinking coffee. They looked at the bustling trading hall through the large French windows, feeling superior.

"Did you hear that, yesterday a guy from Europe bought 15 shares of Nyasaland Military Industry in one lump sum." Duke has inside information that Nyasaland is a member of the Los Angeles Securities and Exchange Commission. .

The Los Angeles Securities and Exchange Commission is the management body of the Los Angeles Stock Exchange. This management body is composed of seven members. Nyasaland Corporation and Rand Bank, South Africa Corporation, and the Johannesburg Mining Union are members of the committee.

The stock exchange must not only attract hot money, but also European capital.

In the past, because there was no stock exchange in southern Africa, companies could only go to London if they wanted to go public.

Leaving aside other companies, the core companies under Roque’s name have never been listed. However, the companies under Roque’s name are in good condition, and almost all of them are high-quality companies. Therefore, European capital has long been interested in the companies under Roque’s name. Eyeing.

Now that the companies under Roque's name are finally listed on the Los Angeles Stock Exchange in batches, European capital has heard the news, and anyone who has the ability wants to get a piece of the pie.

"Nyasaland Military Industry is pretty good, but the issue price is a bit expensive. It's really courageous to buy 15 shares at once—" Liang Chen sighed, Europeans are indeed rich.

The current stock trading is not standardized enough, and the price fluctuates greatly. When Nyasaland Airlines was listed, it was only 1.5 rand per share. The value of Nyasaland Military Industry is three times that of Nyasaland Aviation, which only shows that the market has relatively strong confidence in Nyasaland Military Industry.

Just last month, a plane of a French civil airline had an air crash while flying from mainland France to North Africa. The plane disappeared without a trace. It is said that it crashed into the Mediterranean Sea.

This accident directly affected the stock prices of all civil airlines around the world. Fortunately, the plane that had the accident was not produced by Nyasaland Airlines, so the impact on Nyasaland Airlines was not great.

Nyasaland Military Industry is an established enterprise. Starting from the first two bullet production lines, Nyasaland Military Industry has grown rapidly and can produce all military weapons including tanks. Although the world war is over, as long as there are conflicts of interest, war It will not disappear, so the market is still optimistic about Nyasaland military industry.

"It's only 4.5, and it's not expensive to double it. If you don't believe it, wait until the Rand Bank is listed. If it is less than 20 rand, I will buy you a drink." Duke has confidence in southern African companies. The current stock market is The distribution of benefits must always show temptation, so as to stimulate the real target to enter the game. It will take at least a few years for the stock exchange to truly show its power.

At that time, maybe the Los Angeles Stock Exchange will also become a sad place for European capital.

Not surprisingly, although the price of the shares issued by Nyasaland Military Industry was relatively high, within two hours, all the shares were sold out. At the close of trading that night, the stock price of Nyasaland Military Industry also rose by the limit.

Coming up in three days is Nyasaran Heavy Industries.

Also on October 14th, Binga Forestry from the Kingdom of Mozambique submitted a listing application to the Los Angeles Securities and Exchange Commission.

In principle, the Los Angeles Stock Exchange does not accept listing applications from companies outside southern Africa at this stage.

However, the Kingdom of Mozambique has a special relationship with Southern Africa. Binga Forestry is the largest forestry company in the Kingdom of Mozambique. Most of its timber is exported to Southern Africa. It has close cooperation with many companies in Nyasaland, so this application has been approved. opportunity for public review by the committee.

Binga Forestry hopes that Cailo City Stock Exchange will publicly issue 100 million shares at a price of 0.5 rand per share. The funds raised will be used for planting fast-growing forests so as to continuously provide more timber for southern Africa.

"The price of 0.5 rand is too high. The stock price of Nyasaland Airlines is only 1.5. Even if Binga Forestry owns the entire Binga Mountain, the stock is not worth 0.5." Kleist, a representative of the Johannesburg Mining Union, directly opposed it. Binga Forestry is not worth 50 in total.

"It can't be said that the shares issued by Nyasaland Airlines accounted for only 5.00% of the total shares, and the shares issued by Binga Forestry accounted for 20.00% of the total shares. This price is quite reasonable. Binga Mountain is not only There are only forestry resources and rich mineral resources.” Jia Qun from the Rand Bank was interested, and Binga Forestry was initially invested by the Rand Bank.

After the establishment of the Kingdom of Mozambique, it was relying on the capital from Nyasaland and Rhodesia to barely survive. When Zha Zha was alive, he would visit Rock in Los Angeles every year. Now that Zha Zha passed away, the little king is still alive There are no adults and the regent is Prime Minister Andy Sapir from Nyasaland.

Andy Sapir is already the fourth Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Mozambique. During the World War, the Kingdom of Mozambique also sent servants to participate in the Southern African Expeditionary Force. Nearly 5 people died in battle.

The current Kingdom of Mozambique has a domestic population of about 100 million. After the end of the World War, there was a voice in southern Africa to directly annex the Kingdom of Mozambique, but it was not implemented.

This issue is not in a hurry now, just like Madagascar, the time is not ripe yet, forcible annexation will arouse the vigilance of European countries, and in a few years, when European countries are overwhelmed, it will be more convenient for southern Africa to operate.
