华尔街“黑色星期一”风暴

Wall St suffers worst day in 4 years

＂我们所有的资产早就做了对冲,这次下跌反而对我们有利。＂一位美国对冲基金华人交易员告诉《中国经济周刊》记者,由于之前他们就认为美股估值处于历史高位,所以提前就做好了资产价格大跌的防备,8月24日的大跌对于他们影响不大,＂我们甚至盼望它再跌跌。＂他揶揄道。8月24日,美股三大指数普跌。

Aug.24, The Dow Jones industrial average briefly slumped more than 1,000 points, its most dramatic intraday trading range ever. The drop followed an 8.5 percent slump in Chinese markets, which sparked a selloff in global stocks along with oil and other commodities. Wall Street had stayed in narrow range for much of 2015, but volatility jumped this month as investors became increasingly concerned about a potential stumble in China's economy and after Beijing devalued its currency.
