记得上小学时读过一本揭露奸商的书,其中印象最深的是奸商如何低价买进高价卖出,囤积居奇谋取暴利。幼小的心灵里对“囤积居奇”这个词留下了恶劣的印象。及长大后知道囤积居奇与投机相关。至今在中国标准词典中这些词仍然是贬义词。“投机”是“利用时机谋取私利”。“投机倒把”是“指以买空卖空、囤积居奇、套购转卖等手段牟取暴利”。“囤积居奇”是投机商人为了等待时机高价出售而把货物储存起来。这些解释都引自1996年新版的《现代汉语词典》。说 I remember reading a book on primary school exposed profiteers, the most impressed is how profiteers sell cheap to buy low-priced, hoarding to make huge profits. The young mind left a bad impression on the word hoarding. And grow up to know that hoarding and speculation related. So far in the Chinese standard dictionary these words are still derogatory term. “Speculation” is “using timing for personal gain.” “Speculative” refers to “means to buy empty short, hoarding, such as repossession and other means to make huge profits.” Hoarding is the storage of goods by speculative traders in search of high prices for sale. These explanations are quoted from the 1996 edition of the “Modern Chinese Dictionary.” Say
