To put it simply, it is to throw stocks into the market in August near the delivery month, which is to smash the market. At the same time, sell A50 index futures in SGX. In this way, shorting futures and stock spot market at the same time, although the stock market will cause its own losses, but because futures are leveraged transactions, once the stock index falls, its gains in futures will far outweigh the losses of stocks. For example, if the same funds are used to short the stock market and A50, and the stock market and A50 both fall by 10%, then the funds shorting the stock market will only lose 10%, but the funds shorting A50 will gain 100% (about 10%) because of leverage. Combine the two markets and finally make a profit of 90%. Such huge profits will surely attract international hot money to stage the delivery day curse frequently.
