The Ding Hai Effect

From Wikipedia:

The theory goes that whenever the Hong Kong actor Adam Cheng stars in a new television show, there is a sudden drop in the market. No reason is given for this effect, and it is still a popular topic amongst stock brokers, years after the drama series Greed of Man was broadcast in Hong Kong in 1993. The effect is named after Ding Hai, the main character of the show, played by Adam Cheng.

  1. Schmoo,

    Easy one, surely?

    All the times it happened up until it was pointed out were random chance, and once it’s been mentioned it’s down to the reactions of the superstitious?
