说实话，看到这种消息我既兴奋又无奈。兴奋的是A股又多了一家硬科技公司，无奈的是每次这种机会出现，最后赚钱的总是少数人。就像去年某芯片龙头 上市时一样，打新中签的欢天喜地，没中的只能干瞪眼。 二、市场正在上演"强者恒强"的戏码 一、独角兽来袭，你的账户准备好了吗？ 最近朋友圈被一条消息刷屏了：宇树科技要冲刺科创板IPO了。这家做四足机器人的公司，估值已经超过100亿，背后站着腾讯、阿里这些互联网巨头。消 息一出，圈内朋友都在讨论要不要打新。 现在的市场很有意思，呈现出典型的外部杠杆型行情特征。简单说就是强者恒强，物极必反。没有正策引导的时候，消息面就成了主宰短期交易的主要因 素。 但这里有个误区要提醒大家：很多人以为股价上涨是因为利好消息刺激。其实真相是消息面对股价的作用不是引导，而是强化。就像宇树科技要上市的消 息，真正推动股价的不是消息本身，而是大资金借机加码的结果。 三、为什么你总是错过好股票？ 我观察到一个很有意思的现象：现在的行情上涨时间很短，调整时间却很长。这是因为在市场不确定性大的时候，大资金选择用"时间来换空间"。他们既不 想踏空，又不愿贸然推高股价成为众矢之的。 这种情况下散户最容易犯两个错误 ...
