Chapter 811: Chapter 331: Pure Financial Games! (Part 2)

"So you say... Between us, if you make any demands, how could I refuse?"

Without Chen Peipei, he would be in much danger, and Chen Peipei was quite agreeable; they got along well.

"That’s what you said. When I set my terms, you better not feel the pinch!"

"No, no, I’ll only feel sympathy for you. It’s been tough for you recently, take a good rest for a few days."

"..., when are you coming over?"

"Huh?"

"I mean, how long has it been since you last visited Qingqing?"

"I’ve just been having to go out for things, worried about carrying a virus, so basically, I’ve been in self-isolation. Maybe after some time, possibly half a month..."

...

About half an hour later, Li Yang finally emerged from the bathroom.

He glanced at the computer screen and noticed something was off.

Because the S&P index was close to triggering a breaking point.

The entire US stock market was mourning, with the Nasdaq down six points and the Dow down seven points directly.

That 120 billion US Dollars from Jiang Banxia certainly couldn’t have had this effect.

To break US stocks in such a short time, you’d need to go all in with at least $300 billion.

This is under the condition that the market doesn’t react; if it does, even $500 billion might not be enough.

US stocks had finally seen a few days of good performance, but today they dropped drastically.

At this moment, at the internal meeting of the United States Securities Commission, representatives from major brokers were all present.

One person stood up and said, "Are we really going to turn US stocks into our own playground? You should know that in the current US stock market, individual investors are already wiped out. Do you want us institutions to fight each other? Guys, the cost of suspending Boeing is now evident; a large amount of international capital is withdrawing. They’ve lost trust in US stocks..."

Another person stood up and said, "This Boeing issue was caused by some of your Eastern institutions, but now it’s dragged us Western institutions down. You must give us an explanation! I don’t want to hear any nonsense explanations; you’re destroying US stocks! You’re ruining our livelihood!"

"Why did Boeing need to be suspended? Just because your short positions blew up? When prices rise continuously, do you need unlimited margin calls? Your own strategic mistakes, and you want everyone to pay the price? Do you know how many institutions are involved in Boeing stock? How much international money is in there?"

"Huaxia has a saying that makes sense: Practice more if you’re weak! Stand firm if you’re beaten! On the other side is Jiang Banxia, the world’s richest person. Do you know how influential her words are now? You still want to swallow her Kuai Pai international edition, have you swallowed it? She doesn’t even care about you!"

"You originally knew the risk existed but didn’t take the opponent seriously, and now you want to use disorderly means to limit their funds? Friends, do you know how much money she has? Do you know how many legends Wanliu Capital has created over the years? International capital greatly respects her..."

...

What nonsense about international capital is actually just the Western Agency’s own doing, merely blaming it on international capital.

After all, on the surface, they still need to stand with Wall Street and can’t completely fall out with the Eastern Agency.

Although most of those present were from the Eastern Agency, just a few from the Western Agency spoke more forcefully with each sentence.

They certainly didn’t want Boeing to remain suspended, and might even stop these people from doing other things, like pulling the plug or forcing sales.

Currently, Wall Street wouldn’t dare pull the plug; too much money is involved.

If it were a small stock involving hundreds of billions of US Dollars, pulling it would be one thing, but what’s inside now is far more than hundreds of billions of US Dollars.

Ignore Boeing’s market cap of merely over $600 billion; in reality, a series of financial products are related, affecting a total amount likely over $1 trillion.

Anyway, Western funds made a huge profit this time.

Yet they were amazed at Jiang Banxia’s capital amount, dumping as soon as Boeing was suspended, with unprecedented resoluteness.

It was precisely Jiang Banxia’s guidance that provided them a direction, followed by a substantial amount of funds pouring out.

Simultaneously, this gave them a natural excuse.

The Eastern Agency wants to risk international capital for Boeing? What future would US stocks have then?

With what little money they have, and no growth, sometimes pulling several hundred billion, even a trillion, US Dollars from the market, the US stocks will fall apart within years.

The financial market fears nothing more than a lack of growth. Once internal turmoil is confirmed, most institutions will rush to exit, and after that...

After all, there’s absolutely no need to stay in stocks; with that funds, it’s better to enter the real estate market.

At least the rent ratio is decent.

Of course, these words are spoken with the worst-case scenario in mind; the real situation is unlikely to develop to such extent.

"Overall, it’s simple: If Boeing doesn’t resume trading tomorrow, we Western Agencies are done playing with you. Don’t think you can blame us for your mess!"

"You better think about the cost of losing international capital recently... Do you really want international capital to sell all their stocks to us? If that happens, the US Dollar will flood the world!"

The US stock market itself is a huge reservoir; without this reservoir’s presence, you can’t imagine how much US Dollars could circulate globally.
