Merckle made a speculative investment based on his belief that Volkswagen
shares would fall; however, in October 2008, Porsche SE's support of
Volkswagen sent shares on the Xetra dax from 10.85 to over 000 in less
than two days (a short squeeze), resulting in losses estimated in the
hundreds of millions of dollars for Merckle.[2]
In 2007, he was worth US$12.8 billion by most estimates (Forbes), and by
December 2008 he was worth $9.2 billion, a loss of $3.6 billion. In 2006, he
was the world's 44th richest man, dropping to 96th place by December 2008,
but still one of Germany's five richest men.

: 受卧轨自杀。可见在投资领域，ego是一件多么邪恶的事。投资、灌水都只是生活一部
: 分。提醒你我都不要太过执着。
