In one case, flawed software and a fat-finger 10x pricing error caused the algorithm to keep out-bidding itself by 20 ticks, affecting the pre-market price. In another case, the software allowed a human trader to override the safety limit 3 times, which "completely defeated its purpose" and caused a 31% price increase in 36 seconds. In the final case, the safety limit didn't function because the software did not allow for the absence of an opening price, knocking a price down by 14%. Lucky buyers!

China Strategic bubble
We warn investors of a bubble in the stock of China Strategic, the 80% owner of the proposed buyer of Taiwan's Nan Shan Life Insurance, partly financed by a massive note issue convertible into 78bn shares at $0.10 each. We publish the placing list and analyse the names in the deal. Finally, we warn investors to avoid 7 companies in the "Chung Nam network", which has lost HK$6.2bn in 5 years. (13-Nov-2009)
