The second trading day was full of hostility right from the beginning.
The confrontation between Somerland capital and Wall Street capital, which had attracted global attention from the first second of the second trading day, made people all over the world who were watching the Dow Jones Index unaware of the tension from the previous day.
***
Somerland External Development Bank headquarters in Waterhoof City.
Tony held the teacup and looked at the transaction information on the computer screen with a deep gaze. In this large conference room was more than a dozen computers. Two to three people were sitting in front of each computer.
It was not that the development bank had no money to equip everyone with a computer, but that these two or three people had their own duties and their own tasks to complete. Hence, they needed to cooperate.
“Mr. Pratt, things are not quite right.”
A young man with glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, who was sitting in front of the computer nearest to Tony, raised his head with a nervous and serious expression.
“As soon as Quantum Fund opened today, their purpose was very clear. They launched the most ferocious offensive against all of JW Foundation’s positions. At present, JW Foundation is under great pressure.”
“According to our pre-analysis, it is indeed possible for Quantum Fund to do so. There are two choices if we combine JW Foundation’s performance yesterday with the best response we anticipate.”
“Either temporarily abandoning a portion of their positions for the time being, or hedge Quantum Fund on the sector that both of them are fighting most aggressively for.”
“These two choices each have their pros and cons, but JW Foundation has made the third choice.”
Tony watched the transaction data as favonovel.com listened to his subordinate’s report.
To be able to serve as the Secretary- General in a bank as important the Development Bank, Tony not only needed to use political means but also needed extremely impressive professional skills.
He immediately understood the current situation. Frowning slightly, Tony said, “Jasper did not care about the position that was being attacked, but instead favonovel.com launched a charge against Quantum Fund’s base camp.”
“That’s right.”
The young man stood up and walked to the computer located in front of Tony. Then, favonovel.com used the keyboard and mouse to open a trading chart and said, “This is the stock market of Layman Investment Bank. Layman Investment Bank not only placed the largest investment in Quantum Funds among all the Wall Street capitalists this time, it is also one of the largest shareholders of Quantum Fund.”
“From this perspective, if Jasper launched a retaliatory attack on Layman, it would be excusable.”
Tony’s eyebrows furrowed tighter. Then, the young man said, “The problem is that Layman Investment Bank is too large. Jasper’s current principal and financial leverage barely reach the level of 100 billion US Dollars. He can try disrupting Layman’s huge balance, but it’s impossible that favonovel.com hasn’t thought about the consequences of completely angering Layman.”
The young man nodded, pushed up his glasses, and calmly analyzed, “In the current situation, all of Wall Street’s capital is integrated. Even Colossal Investments, which has the best relationship with Jasper, did not choose to stand on Jasper‘s side. It can be seen that Jasper’s offensive against Layman Investment Bank is likely to be regarded by the entire Wall Street capital as provocation for a full-scale war. They have no reason not to fight back.”
“That punk…”
Jasper’s confident face appeared in Tony’s mind. He frowned, “What the hell is favonovel.com trying to do?”
The young man hesitated for a while and suggested, “Mr. Pratt, would you like to remind Jasper?”
Tony glanced at favonovel.com and said, “Remind him? In what capacity and position do you want to do that? It’s not like you don’ t know that we represent the government. At this critical moment, we have to be aware of everything, but we can’t act ourselves. Countless eyes are watching us on the other side of the Pacific.”
The young man hurriedly answered, “I didn’t think it through.”
