A majority of investors took a look at the price that had long surpassed their budget and hesitated.
Even so, the prices only rose during their hesitation.
This unimaginable rise led to the investors feeling immensely regretful.
They all thought the same thing, ‘The difference between the two values would’ve been more if I hadn’t hesitated just now.
‘God damn it!’
The investors’ madness was reflected in Sena’s share prices.
Transaction information from all over the United States arrived at Nasdaq Exchange Center’s 16 servers within milliseconds through fiber channels.
These cutting-edge servers then responded and did the calculations as quickly as possible.
The result was then outputted in the form of a k-line for Sena’s share prices, which was then displayed on the exchange center’s electronic display and all the investors’ computers.
Those from the financial industry in the United States who had their eyes on the share market were in an uproar.
“Sena officially went public at 9:30 this morning. It has only been five minutes and there has been a total transaction of 300 million US dollars backstage. Its share price has risen from 25 US dollars to 50 US dollars in only 5 minutes and 28 seconds!
“There’s no doubt that this share has broken the record for time taken to double in price in the history of the United States. No, in the history of mankind.
“Have investors from the United States gone mad? Why are they so obsessed with this internet company from Somerland?
“Is the United States not the center of the world’s internet industry?”
The host of The First Fortune, the most authoritative financial radio channel with the most listeners in the United States, shouted.
His show was broadcasted to at least 35 million listeners in the United States.
“This Somerland share with the ticker Sena seems to have inherited something from this mysterious and ancient country from the east. This stock and this country have shaken the entirety of the United States in the shortest time.
“The investors’ enthusiasm now reminds me of the last quarter of 1993. That was one hell of a capitalist party all over the world and the global economy had risen to new heights. Everyone became more wealthy and everyone was buying shares. Almost every share had an increase in market price.
“Oh my God, look at Sena’s share prices! Why am I so excited about Sena’s share prices? Our share market has been despondent for far too long and it needs such strength to boost our confidence in the market!”
Everyone at the Nasdaq Exchange Center, both the busy or the free, was looking up at the large screen that showed Sena’s share prices.
A frightening big red trendline skyrocketed on the market, one so exaggerated that normal investors might not even be able to see such a thing in ten years if not for the current situation.
The electronic display took up the entire wall, and that big trendline seemed to be piercing through the top of the screen and was aiming for the sky.
There was no oscillation and no pullback. It did not waiver nor did it shake.
There was only an increase, an endless increase that no one understood!
The most terrifying part of it all was that Sena’s terrifying trade and its upward trend had also managed to raise Nasdaq Exchange Center’s internet sector as well.
There was a 7.6% increase in the internet sector.
One share could affect its sector, and the sector’s increase could affect the entire market’s index.
Nasdaq Composite had an increase of 1.54%!
Akin to a key, Sena had unlocked the festering enthusiasm within the investors.
Hundreds of billions of US dollars flooded into the market and it sparked the entire Nasdaq Exchange Center to life, moving the entire market upward.
Everyone’s heart surged at the sight and their blood boiled with excitement. It was as if everyone was holding in such excitement that they wanted to shout out in joy but could not.
This was a feast of wealth!
“Buy! Buy them all! Buy as many as you can!”
Todd shouted raspily at his assistant in the VIP room.
“Damn it, I should’ve done this earlier. I was stupid to actually consider seeling that ten million US dollars worth of shares I had bought through pre-IPO. Did I go mad?”
The assistant smiled wryly at Todd and spoke, “We’ve already bought them, sir. But the price now is just too outrageous and we don’t even have a chance to enter the market.
“All it takes is one second and the price we’re buying at immediately gets pushed down by someone who’s buying it at a higher price.”
“Then buy it back at an even higher price!” Todd’s eyes shone with excitement.
“I don’t care if you believe me or not, but Sena is a share with unlimited potential. While I don’t know how long this share will continue to profit but for the short-term, I want as many shares under 100 US dollars bought and resold for profits.”
No one knew what Todd was thinking when his eyes shifted and favonovel.com turned to tell his assistant, “I want to see Laine and talk to him. You buy me my stocks and if I don’t see five million US dollars worth of stocks when I come back, then you can resign and get lost!”
With that, Todd turned and left the VIP room without another glance at his sorrowful assistant.
…
“The price has risen to 76 US dollars!” Jack turned to Jasper excitedly.
No matter how excited Jack and the other senior executives were, Jasper remained calm in the face of such value.
In truth, favonovel.com had already anticipated any price under 100 US dollars.
If Sena could not even go up to 100 US dollars, then it would have been a waste of all his hard work.
The true obstacle was after the 100 US dollars mark. That was when they would test the durability of the United States’ investors.
Still, from how the situation looked, it was hopeful.
Just then, Todd arrived to look for him.
“Laine, you really are my… How do you say it in Somerish? God of Wealth, correct?” Todd laughed aloud as favonovel.com spoke to Jasper.
Taking in the blonde hair of the man who had yet to become as distant and cynical as favonovel.com would become in the future, Jasper smiled. “Indeed, you seem to understand Somerish quite well.”
Todd was in a great mood and turned to Jasper, saying, “Laine, would you be interested in the shares of one of my companies? Of course, instead of cash, I’d like to exchange it with Sena’s shares.”
Jasper frowned slightly and asked, “What company?”
Todd seemed rather embarrassed as favonovel.com spoke, “This company’s shares are actually something I bought from a friend some time ago. It’s an investment I made because I was friends with that governor friend of mine. I should’ve known that there would be nothing good coming from all these damned politicians. All they do is think of ways to scam my money.”
Jasper felt rather conflicted to hear Todd insult politicians.
He wondered how this man would feel when favonovel.com thought back to this sentence the day favonovel.com became the United States’ largest good-for-nothing scammer.
“But trust me, that company has a lot of potential. They may seem small now but they’re looking for investors everywhere.”
“Since we’re friends, Todd, how about you tell me directly what company this is?”
