Answer to Q161

You are given two ropes with different lengths. However if you set both ropes of fire from the tip, they will both burn at exactly one hour.

You are asked to measure 45 minutes using just these two ropes and you and NOT allowed to cut the ropes at all.

How will you do this?


1. Burn one of the ropes from both ends. The rope will burn completely at half time (i.e. 30 minutes).

2. Also burn the other rope from one end at the same time. At the time rope #1 completely burns, rope #2 will be half length. That is, it now has 30 minutes left to burn.

3. Immediately set the other side of rope #2 on fire too. It will burn at half the time left (i.e. 15 minutes).

4. Let rope #2 burn completely too.

You have successfully measured 30minutes + 15 minutes = 45 minutes.

The SSE was the first modern stock exchange to open in China, with trading commencing in 1990. It has now grown to become the largest stock exchange in Asia and the third-largest in the world by market capitalization, which stood at RMB 50.6 trillion (US$7.8 trillion) as of September 2021. Stocks (both A-shares and B-shares), bonds, funds, and derivatives are traded on the exchange. The SEE has two trading boards, the Main Board and the Science and Technology Innovation Board, the latter more commonly known as the STAR Market. The Main Board mainly hosts large, well-established Chinese companies and lists both A-shares and B-shares.

Spiking bond yields driving sharp losses in tech stocks

A spike in interest rates since the start of the year has accelerated a rotation out of high-growth technology stocks and into value stocks poised to benefit from a reopening of the economy. The Nasdaq has fallen more than 10% over the past month as the Dow has soared to record highs, with a spike in the 10-year US Treasury yield acting as the main catalyst. It recently surged to a cycle high of more than 1.60% after starting the year below 1%. But according to Jim Paulsen, the Leuthold Group's chief investment strategist, rising interest rates do not represent a long-term threat to the stock market. Paulsen expects the 10-year yield to cross 2% by the end of the year. A spike in interest rates and its impact on the stock market depends on the economic backdrop, according to Paulsen. Rising interest rates amid a strengthening economy "may prove no challenge at all for stocks," Paulsen said.
