I stole someone else's ticket to rebirth

Chapter 333 Pure financial game!
Li Yang was very clear about what happened to GameStop in his previous life. The final result was that Wall Street directly pulled the plug, and major brokerages banned retail investors from trading, and even forced retail investors to sell their stocks.

The stock price of GameStop dropped from nearly $500 to over $90.

Theoretically, if buying is restricted and selling is continuous, the stock price should return to zero.

But... Wall Street doesn't dare to do that, because that would completely nail them to the pillar of shame.

There is 20% international capital in the US stock market, which is worth more than tens of trillions of US dollars. Once Wall Street becomes too shameless, it will face a large-scale withdrawal of international capital.

In the GameStop incident, those who made the most money were not retail investors. In fact, many retail investors lost money.

Those who make the most money are the institutions that enter the market and go long after the emotions arise.

Even Wall Street is not a monolithic entity, let alone the entire Western financial system.

Even when GameStop was restricted from buying, only retail investors were unable to trade, but serious big investors could continue to trade.

In essence, the West is not that powerful. If it were still as powerful as it was 20 years ago, it would not have to find any excuses when imposing sanctions on Huawei.

The only advantage the West has now is that it has a strong enough foundation, and with its heritage, it can last for many years.

If they are confident enough and are sure that there is no evidence to target you and you dare not do anything to them, they will not retreat in 16.

When it comes to GameStop, they don't even dare to kill all the retail investors. Otherwise, with their means, they can easily drive the stock price of GameStop close to zero, and hundreds of thousands of retail investors will lose their fortunes.

After the U.S. stock market opened, Jiang Banxia continued to buy, and the price first rose by five points, and then there was no movement afterwards.

There are basically no chips that can be thrown out from above, and all of Boeing’s chips are probably already in the hands of both parties in the game.

Almost two hours later, Boeing's stock price slowly rose to $680, which was essentially only a 12-point increase.

However, Boeing directly issued an announcement during the trading session, announcing that its stock price would be suspended today due to abnormal fluctuations in its stock price.

Li Yang smiled and said, "See, I was right, wasn't I? The stock has been suspended... maybe it will be suspended indefinitely!"

Indefinite suspension of trading is the best solution, which can lock up all funds. After waiting for a few months, when trading resumes, the retail investors will definitely sell their chips first.

After all, retail investors don’t have much tolerance for error, and if things drag on for a few months, all kinds of problems will arise.

"It's okay, I'll just borrow your chips from before..."

"What chips?"

“It’s the ones I bought before…”

Jiang Banxia took out the financial data of Chen Peipei's holdings, a total of 120 billion US dollars.

"What are you going to do?"

“Sell it!”

"Hmmmm? Someone is going to fight you to death!"

"Sell it first, and I'll buy it back for her."

After saying that, Jiang Banxia directly activated the one-click clearance button.

There is no rules, just smash it down unconditionally!

Hundreds of billions of dollars in chips are basically concentrated in some big stocks, such as Apple, which holds a full $4 billion.

Nvidia's holdings reached $6 billion.

With so much money poured in at once, the impact on the market index is huge!

Li Yang felt distressed when seeing this.

This move will result in a loss of at least 10 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to losing 8 points for no reason.

Apple's price was directly smashed ten points below the water level, and Nvidia's price was smashed sixteen points below the water level. The stock prices plummeted in an instant.

Although follow-up funds were quickly added and the market rose by three or four points in a short period of time, it would take at least half an hour to restore the sentiment.

If there is not enough incremental funds in the market, not even a day will work.

On weekdays, Jiang Banxia trades tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, all of which have counterparties, and are targeted at individual stocks, which basically has no impact on the index.

One hundred and twenty billion US dollars in chips brought down the S&P index by three points in a very short period of time.

The amount of funds received was 110 billion US dollars, which was similar to what Li Yang expected. The original market value was 120 billion US dollars.

Of this money, $35 billion was not Li Yang’s own funds, but was borrowed from the Huobi platform.

Initially, 50 billion US dollars were borrowed, of which 15 billion US dollars were used to buy gold. That batch of gold has not arrived yet.

Li Yang's phone rang almost instantly.

He went to the bathroom silently and answered the call.

Chen Peipei yelled, "What on earth does Jiang Banxia want to do? It's ok that he's been misappropriating platform funds recently, but why did he liquidate the positions I worked so hard to get? Even if he wanted to liquidate, was it necessary to do this? How much loss has he caused?"

More than 100 billion US dollars may seem like a lot, but in fact it is extremely dispersed among the entire US stock market. If one wants to withdraw it within a day, the loss will be at most two or three points.

Jiang Banxia lost eight points in one go.

This is still the case when the market has good support. If it is during the days when the circuit breaker occurs, there will be insufficient support from below and the loss may be more than ten or twenty points.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. She must be in urgent need of your holdings to help. She will slowly buy them back in a few days. This loss is mine."

Li Yang could only comfort Chen Peipei. After all, in this matter... he was not in the right.

This is equivalent to negating Chen Peipei's hard work in the past half month.

"The money is yours, but what about the price I paid for working so hard for so long?"

"So, you say...between the two of us, if you have any request, can I refuse it?"

Without Chen Peipei, he would be in much more danger. Besides, Chen Peipei is easier to talk to, and they get along well with each other.

"You said it, so when I make my offer, you better not feel bad!"

"No, no, I just feel sorry for you. You've been really hard during this period. Take a good rest for a few days from now."

"..., then when will you come over?"

"what?"

"I mean, how long has it been since you last came to see Qingqing?"

"I just have to go out for a while because I'm afraid I might have the virus. I've basically been in self-isolation. It'll be a while, maybe half a month..."

……

Almost half an hour later, Li Yang came out of the bathroom.

I took a closer look at the computer screen and found something wrong.

Because the S&P index is about to hit the circuit breaker.

The entire U.S. stock market was in mourning, with the Nasdaq falling six points and the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling seven points.

Jiang Banxia's 120 billion US dollars definitely won't have this effect.

If you want to halt the U.S. stock market in a very short period of time, you have to risk at least $300 billion in chips.

This is under the premise that the market has not reacted. Even if the market reacted, even if 500 billion US dollars was invested, it might not be possible.

The U.S. stock market had finally enjoyed a few days of good performance, but it suddenly fell sharply today.

At this time, at the internal meeting of the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), representatives from major brokerage firms appeared here.

One of them stood up and said, "Do we really want to turn the U.S. stock market into our own private property? You know, retail investors are already extinct in the U.S. stock market. Do you want us institutions to fight among ourselves? Man, the price you paid for suspending Boeing's trading has already appeared. A large amount of international capital is withdrawing. They no longer have confidence in the U.S. stock market..."

Another person stood up and said, "The Boeing incident was caused by some of your eastern institutions, but now it has implicated our western institutions. You must give us an explanation! I don't want to hear your bullshit explanations. You are going to destroy the U.S. stock market! You are going to destroy all of our jobs!"

"Why did Boeing suspend trading? Is it because your short positions were liquidated? To continue to rise, you need to add unlimited margin? You made a strategic mistake yourself, do you want everyone to pay for it? Do you know how many institutions are involved in Boeing's stock? How much international funds are involved?"

"There's a saying in China: if you're not good at it, practice more! If you get beaten, stand at attention! The person opposite is Jiang Banxia, ​​she's the richest person in the world, do you know how influential her words are now? You want to swallow up their international version of Kuaipai? Have you swallowed it up? They won't even pay attention to you!"

"You knew the risks existed from the beginning, but you didn't take them seriously at all. Now you want to restrict their funds through disorderly means? Man, do you know how much money she has? Do you know how many legends Wanliu Capital has created in the past few years? International capital respects her very much..."

……

What the hell is international capital? It was actually the western institutions themselves who destroyed it, and they just let the international capital take the blame.

After all, nominally they still have to stand with Wall Street and cannot fall out with Eastern institutions.

Although most of the people present are from eastern institutions, the few people from western institutions all speak with more force than the last.

They don't want Boeing to be suspended from trading, and they will even prevent these people from doing other things, such as cutting off the stock price and forcing a sale.

At present, Wall Street does not dare to pull the plug because too much money is involved.

If it was a small ticket involving tens of billions of dollars, it would be fine if it was pulled, but now there are more than tens of billions of dollars involved.

Even though Boeing’s stock price is only over 600 billion U.S. dollars, there are actually a series of financial products related to it, and the overall impact on funds may be trillions of dollars.

Anyway, Western funds made a lot of money this time.

However, they were also shocked by the amount of money Jiang Banxia had. They started to sell Boeing shares the moment it was suspended, with an unprecedentedly resolute attitude. It was because of Jiang Banxia's guidance that they were given a direction, and they also invested a lot of money.

At the same time, this incident also gave them a natural excuse.

Eastern institutions want to give up all international funds in the US stock market for Boeing? If so, what future does the US stock market have?
The little money they have is not increasing, and they take away tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars from the market from time to time. In a few years, the U.S. stock market will be finished.

The biggest fear in the financial market is a lack of growth. Once the premise of internal self-rolling is determined, most institutions will rush to get ahead, and then...

After all, there is no need to waste money in the stock market. If you have that much money, you might as well invest in the property market.

At least the rent-to-rent ratio is good.

Of course, these words are definitely said in the most serious way, and the actual situation is unlikely to develop to this point.

"In a nutshell, if Boeing doesn't resume trading tomorrow, we, the Western Agency, will not play with you anymore. Don't expect us to take the blame for your mess!"

"You'd better consider the cost of losing international capital in the near future... Do you really want international capital to sell all their stocks to us? If that happens, the US dollar will flood the world!"

The U.S. stock market itself is a super large reservoir. If this reservoir did not exist, it is hard to imagine how much the U.S. dollar would be in the world.

International capital is different from their domestic capital. Those people don’t spend much money to get the chips.

But every chip that international capital holds is bought with real money.

Can Jiang Banxia represent international capital? Today’s near circuit breaker is an example.

If tens of billions of dollars were withdrawn from the U.S. stock market, they would be in chaos internally.

And just like that, at 3:30 in the morning, Boeing resumed trading.

The moment of resumption of trading, Boeing's stock price was pulled up by 20 points, and the stock price officially reached 726 US dollars.

At this time, Boeing's total market value reached 650 billion US dollars.

Boeing has been breaking through and rising wildly every day.

Li Yang gave a thumbs up: "Master Jiang is still amazing."

Jiang Banxia started to buy the chips that were sold before, and said, "It's not that great. It's mainly because Master Li has given me enough external conditions. If I didn't have these chips, I wouldn't be able to sell them even if I wanted to, and my opponents wouldn't react so quickly. Once the stock is suspended for three to five days, its popularity will be lost... And the existence of the international version of Kuaipai is also a big enough threat to them..."

Without these conditions, Jiang Banxia cannot do it.

All along, the external conditions that Li Yang gave her were extremely powerful, something that no one else could give her.

“The stock price will soon break through $800… When should I exit?”

"It will take another week or two. We need to reach a certain level of tacit understanding, otherwise the structure will not be solid."

"tacit agreement?"

"Yeah... I've won now!"

"How much can you earn?"

"This...two billion dollars a day!"

"Cough cough..."

……

On March 3, U.S. stocks opened.

Boeing rose 12 points and its stock price officially broke through $.

According to Jiang Banxia's algorithm, at this position, all of Wall Street's short positions have definitely been blown up, and it is impossible for any short positions to exist.

After the explosion, they had to add margin. According to the ratio of 40%, for every dollar increase in Boeing’s stock price, the short-selling institutions on Wall Street had to add at least US$ billion in margin.

On April 4, Boeing increased its price by one point, or $1.

The trading volume that day was only US$1.2 billion.

On April 4, Boeing increased its price by another point, or $2.

The trading volume for the day was only $1 billion.

On April 4, Boeing rose one point again and was once pulled up to five points during the trading session, but was then smashed down. The trading volume on that day reached 3 billion US dollars.

On Monday, April 4, Boeing opened up again by one point.

There was no breakthrough that day, and it kept fluctuating at that point, with a trading volume of 3.5 billion US dollars.

On April 4, Boeing rose another point.

On that day, Jiang Banxia sold 6 billion US dollars in chips, and managed to stabilize the stock price until the closing.

On April 4, Boeing still rose by one point.

On this day, Jiangbei was unsealed.

Li Yang received a call from Ye Bingcheng and expressed his gratitude for the time he had spent with her.

Li Yang immediately posted an announcement on Weibo, saying that this donation has come to a temporary end and the company is sorting out the data. After the results come out the day after tomorrow, the unspent money will be taken out and divided equally.

The method of splitting the funds has not yet been announced.

It was also on this day that the prices of protective equipment in Europe dropped.

This is the second price cut in more than two months.

The first price of masks was 3 euros, which lasted only one month, and then it was reduced to 1 euro.

And now, the price has been reduced again to 0.3 euros.

There is still a lot of profit overall, but the profit is not as exaggerated as before.

Li Yang exported a lot of masks and protective clothing, totaling 22,000 tons.

Even so, there is still a shortage in the international market.

Don’t be fooled by the fearlessness of everyone on the Internet. In real life, people still scramble for masks when they see them.

Masks from the domestic market also began to be dumped globally, and he did not participate much in the subsequent market trends.

There are only 3,000 tons of meltblown cloth left, and it will be consumed quickly.

On April 4, Boeing rose another point.

On this day, Jiang Banxia sold 2 billion US dollars in chips.

On April 4, Boeing still rose by one point.

On this day, Jiang Banxia still offered 2 billion US dollars in chips.

At the same time, she used nine trading days to buy back the chips she had sold previously, thus settling the matter.

In this transaction, Jiang Banxia lost 13 billion US dollars.

However, the market value of her Boeing holdings has soared from US$200 billion to US$280 billion today.

After all, Boeing's market value has reached 820 billion US dollars.

The essence of stocks is coupons. When people find that a certain coupon rises by one point every day, there is no doubt that the coupon will be snapped up.

Some people are even willing to pay a premium for it.

It’s just that Boeing is facing considerable risks at this time, so no one will pay too much of a premium.

During this period, Jiang Banxia reached a tacit understanding with the funds inside. If too much was sold, they would find a way to take it down themselves. If someone raised the price too much, they would be responsible for smashing it.

As for how much money each other cashed out? It all depends on their own abilities.

Only then did Li Yang understand what Jiang Banxia meant by what he said two weeks ago.

Boeing is her money bag!
Because of the amount of her holdings, if she increased by one point every day, she could make a total of $2.8 billion.

She is essentially spending the interest every day.

This interest is inexhaustible!
As long as Wall Street's short position cannot be repaid, it can be maintained.

Wall Street would certainly like to repay, but unfortunately, they can no longer afford it...

They would need to come up with more than $400 billion to pay it back...but the problem is...that would drive up the stock price...

Never ending!

They can only survive by adding margin every day, and wait until this support point is broken and all the chips in the market are released.

After all, the margin is not considered a loss. Once the short position is repaid, there is no hope of recovery.

This is a purely financial game.

"Master Jiang, if someone sells a large number of chips one day, will we still sell them?"

"Sell it. Anyway, we are not the biggest beneficiaries of this matter. If the sky falls, it should be held up by tall people. We only need to cash out 2 billion US dollars every day. Other things have nothing to do with us."
