The third recorded instance of this effect occurred in 2000, when a modern re-make of Greed of Man, The War of the Century, was broadcast on ATV (One of the two TV corporations in Hong Kong).
During that time, a stock market (and economic) bubble caused by overinflated housing prices burst, causing a huge stock market crisis that spread to other countries around the world and eventually miring Hong Kong in a recession that it struggles to break free to this day.
No reason is given for the phenomenon, and this effect has been a hot topic amongst stock brokers for years after the drama series Greed of Man was broadcast in Hong Kong in 1993.
