Racehorse Seize the Grey took the lead at the 2024 Preakness Stakes on Saturday and never looked back, capturing the Triple Crown event at 9 to 1 odds. A $2 bet on the gray colt to win paid $21.60. The win was unique in another way: 2,570 individual investors bought micro shares of the horse through the website myRacehorse. 2023 Kentucky Derby champ Mage had a similar ownership structure.

Racehorse Seize the Grey 在周六的 2024 年 Preakness 锦标赛中处于领先地位,他再也没有回头,以9比1的赔率夺得了三冠王赛事。对灰色小马下注2美元获胜支付了21.60美元。这次胜利在另一个方面是独一无二的:2570名个人投资者通过MyRaceHorse网站购买了这匹马的微型股票。2023年肯塔基德比冠军马奇也有类似的所有权结构。

How It Works: According to the company's website, myRacehorse offers shares in racehorses to those 18 and older in qualifying jurisdictions. Investors' exposure is limited to their initial investment, without any additional fees.

运作方式:根据该公司的网站,MyRaceHorse向符合条件的司法管辖区的18岁及以上的人提供赛马股票。投资者的风险敞口仅限于其初始投资,不收取任何额外费用。

Investors can visit the horses in the barn, participate in the winner's circle if their horse wins an event, and are entitled to a portion of the profits from the horse after it is retired.

投资者可以参观牛舍中的马匹,如果他们的马在赛事中获胜,则可以参与获胜者圈子,并有权在马匹退役后从马匹中获得部分利润。

The Individual Investor: Horse ownership has traditionally been reserved for the ultra-wealthy. Companies offering micro shares of horses allow individual investors to consider themselves owners of a racing thoroughbred.

个人投资者:传统上,马匹的所有权保留给超级富豪。提供小额马匹股份的公司允许个人投资者将自己视为赛马纯种马的所有者。

Shares of Seize the Grey originally sold for $127 a pop and will yield $157 a share from the win, according to the Baltimore Business Journal. Owners will also be entitled to future stud fees, which are likely to be substantial.

据《巴尔的摩商业杂志》报道,Seize the Grey的股票最初以每人127美元的价格售出,每股收益为157美元。所有者还有权获得未来的种马费,这笔费用可能会很高。

Most investments in horses are very unlikely to make a profit; the company itself admits this. However, fraction shares still provide a unique opportunity for individual investors to enjoy the various perks of horse ownership.

大多数对马匹的投资都不太可能获利;该公司本身也承认这一点。但是,零头股仍然为个人投资者提供了享受拥有马匹的各种好处的难得机会。

This is not so different from the participation of retail investors in the financial markets. Interest among retail investors in equities such as GameStop Corp (NYSE:GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE:AMC) demonstrates the increasing interest of ordinary, non-institutional individuals to participate in the world of investing.

这与散户投资者参与金融市场没有太大区别。散户投资者对GameStop Corp(纽约证券交易所代码:GME)和AMC娱乐控股公司(纽约证券交易所代码:AMC)等股票的兴趣与日俱增,这表明普通非机构个人对参与投资世界的兴趣与日俱增。
