1, the British FTSE index, also known as the Financial Times Index, is compiled and maintained by FTSE International, a company jointly established by the Financial Times of London and the London Stock Exchange. The industry classification standard formulated by TSE is called globe _ lassification _ system, which is widely accepted as the global industry standard. The GCS institutions that implement FTSE include London Stock Exchange, Hang Seng Index (Hang_eng_ndex) in Hong Kong, Russell Index (Russell_ndex) in the United States and so on. Simply put, shorting means that when you think that the current price of a stock is overvalued (or seriously overvalued), you can borrow this stock from an institution or brokerage firm to sell it (there will be a time limit when borrowing, and how many days will it be returned). When the return period of the borrowed stock comes, if the price of the stock has fallen a lot, you can buy the stock from the market at a low price and return it to the brokerage firm for profit (why the brokerage firm lent you the stock and where these borrowed stocks came from will be explained at last).
2. At present, China's securities market has been able to "buy short and sell short", which is the so-called "short selling". However, in the "short-selling" business, only a limited number of large-cap blue-chip stocks can be used for short-selling, and it depends on whether the number in the current stock pool of securities firms is sufficient, so the short-selling mechanism in China is not perfect at this point.
3. Stocks held by other investors in the brokerage level. For example, Hanwang Technology, whose brokerage clients hold 6,543,800+shares of the registered company, can use most of them to lend money to their clients for profit on the premise of keeping some of them for turnover. Ordinary investors don't have to worry about their stocks being misappropriated by brokers, because brokers will stare at customers' deposits every day when lending money.
