Some Chinese responded to the US election with creativity and humor. On Wednesday, the shares of software manufacturer Wisesoft from Shenzhen rose to the daily limit. The reason lies in the Chinese name, „Chuan Da Zhi Sheng“, which is a homophone of „Trump wins“ in Chinese. At the same time, the share value of a thermos manufacturer from Zhejiang fell by 8.1%. The name – „Hears“ – is similar to that of the defeated US Democrat Kamala Harris.
