Chapter 250 Trouble

Financial professionals on Wall Street had a hard time providing convincing analyses or predictions about the soaring stock price of Byte Company.

Because in just a few short months, its stock price had experienced multiple peaks and changes.

Critics commented, "Those bankers who arranged for the company to go public at 18 US Dollars per share,
