鄭裕彤辭世︰指腹為婚 迎娶老闆女

on.cc東網專訊

【on.cc東網專訊】 提起「珠寶大王」鄭裕彤的發迹史，很多人都會認為，他的成功全憑娶得周大福金舖老闆之女周翠英為妻，才能一登龍門，聲價十倍，但又有誰知道這段姻緣，其實是他們夫婦未出娘胎前已注定的。

據說兩家父親在民國初年於廣州一家綢緞莊結識，同為夥計，鄭裕彤與周翠英是指腹為婚。日本侵華，只唸完小學的鄭裕彤往澳門投靠周至元，被安排在周大福金舖當後生。

鄭裕彤勤力上進，經常流連街外觀察其他金舖經營手法和金器款式設計，周至元便逐步提升他為金舖主管。

鄭裕彤18歲那年，周至元遵守承諾，把女兒翠英許配給他。婚後，兩人恩愛非常，鄭裕彤對工作更加倍努力，輔助岳丈打理生意，使金舖業務蒸蒸日上。

Stocks Soar After French Press "Confirm" Deutsche Bank Near Settlement With DOJ

Seemingly confirming the rumor, Agence France Press reports that Deutsche Bank is nearing a $5.4 billion settlement with the US Justice Department.

This has catalyzed another leg higher in Deutsche Bank stock and lifted the whole market as it would appear that unconfirmed sources have 'fixed' the world's most systemically dangerous bank (despite the fact that short-dated counterparty risk is soaring).

Which is lifting all stocks...

And now AFP is walking back their comment...

• DEUTSCHE BANK SETTLEMENT MAY BE ANNOUNCED COMING DAYS - AFP

We look forward to the 1605ET denial from The DOJ. Once again we remind readers that Monday is a bank holiday in Germany.
For now, the professionals know exactly what is afoot - anything to slow the outflows of cash... and counterparty risk hedges are soaring...

Naturally, Deutsche Bank has refused to comment on speculation around the level of the DoJ fine.

• DEUTSCHE BANK DECLINES TO COMMENT ON MEDIA REPORT IT IS CLOSE TO SETTLEMENT WITH DOJ

Which means that should the DOJ make no announcement on Sunday, any buying spree today in DB may promptly turn into another selloff. Making matters worse, with German trading closed for holiday on Monday, only the far more illiquid US tracking stock will be open, which may accentuate any potential selling.
