Chapter 186 Food Sharing
It was around nine o'clock on Wednesday night.
After Li Yuan arrived at the company, he also took a look at the morning data.
The overall data is of little reference value, because the short contract is still in hand, and with so many chips owed, the book profit may be lost at any time.
Today is important, it is his chance to reduce his short contract.
The traders were also very clear about the real situation, so they were not surprised after looking at the data.
Li Yuan explained it very clearly. Someone deliberately lowered the increase. Otherwise, even if they made money, it would not be likely to be a lot.
The five stocks that I have been holding on to occupy too much capital. If they can maintain the high level of 60 points, it would be good enough to make $500 million on the short positions.
As for Li Yuan being awesome?
Isn't this a recognized fact?
They are all considered veterans of the company. They knew that Li Yuan was awesome from the first day they joined the company, and this perception has not changed so far.
Even if Li Yuan really doubled his capital in one night, it would be reasonable.
Yu Yue is not a trader and doesn’t quite understand the game involved, but these traders know it very well.
Li Yuan also made mistakes, but at least 90% of his commands hit the opponent's weak spots, and even those erroneous commands did not deviate too much.
The difference between them and Li Yuan is that before Li Yuan issued those instructions, they had never thought about doing so.
The market has opened.
Just as Li Yuan expected, the two stocks that led the market crash yesterday still had no support today and opened more than ten points lower almost without any suspense.
But the other nine stocks that exploded at the end of yesterday's trading were abnormal. They opened more than ten points higher.
Li Yuan could only call out "good guys!", this group of people still wanted to play.
There is not much funds left on the market. The funds are all in my hands. If the market drops by a dozen points, I may put some funds into the market, but they insist on going up.
This means that after the market closed, this group of people held another meeting. Their purpose was simple: to make Li Yuan's short position explode.
In fact, the performance of these nine stocks had already ended when they collapsed by more than ten or twenty points in the late morning trading.
They posed little threat to Li Yuan. Chunchun came in today to deliver food.
It was similar to the market situation in the early morning, those stocks were pulled up straight and were being forced to close.
Li Yuan could only continue to add short contracts.
He can't make that much money tonight because he has no chips.
"Remember to steal some of the short orders to disrupt our mode of just holding positions."
To put it bluntly, even if the position is not liquidated, some short orders must be opened.
Li Yuan wants to maximize the number of short positions he can hold today.
At the beginning, the offensives of both sides were relatively slow and the overall transaction was also average.
On Li Yuan's side, the short orders he stole were not many, only adding about 100 or 200 million US dollars in total.
Half an hour later, the trading volume increased significantly. Li Yuan looked at the market and laughed.
Indeed, the stock price has been heading towards his margin call line, but the question is, every time he covers his position with 20 million US dollars, the stock trades for 40 million US dollars. Why is that?
Isn't this purely a counter-party deal? How can there be so many scattered chips? And what's more, it's such a coincidence that they are the same as my own funds?
At this time, he knew that someone was sneaking away again.
After the early hours of the morning, they must have held a private meeting and agreed to continue suppressing Li Yuan's funds .
But if human nature could be trusted, even a sow could climb a tree.
"Increase the efforts to steal short orders!"
He couldn't afford to let others take away too much of his profits.
If someone steals an additional $20 million, he will lose an additional $20 million.
Because the money he has now is enough to last for a long time, and unless they push the stock price up another 50 points, it is impossible for him to go bankrupt.
They had already consumed a large amount of ammunition last night. If they rushed in again at all costs today, it would really not be his problem.
There were still some scattered orders yesterday, but today they are completely gone.
How much you can earn depends entirely on how much your allies have.
The five stocks that I held on to yesterday unexpectedly calmed down today. They rose by more than ten points and then went sideways.
No one tried to attack Li Yuan’s margin call line.
The trading volume is disgusting, all in line with Li Yuan's usual pattern of opening short orders.
It's going up from 20 million or 30 million dollars.
This gives people the illusion that Li Yuan has been opening short positions for defense.
In fact, he did nothing.
On the contrary, the other nine stocks were rising more aggressively, and he has opened two rounds of short orders so far.
Another half an hour passed, and after Li Yuan opened four short orders, he decisively stopped.
During this period, short orders worth nearly $400 million were stolen, and in total, short orders worth nearly $1 billion were opened today.
He still has a lot of cash on hand, which can be leveraged.
But he still made conservative plans.
What if that group of people on Wall Street did this on purpose?
Deliberately induce yourself to open a large number of short orders at a low level, and then make a final push to pull up.
By then, because he opened a large number of short orders at low levels, he will have no funds in his hands, and the pressure to maintain the liquidation line will become greater and greater.
In the current situation, he doesn't have to do almost anything, as there are plenty of people to help him defend the margin call line.
…
A financial company on Wall Street called David Capital.
A middle-aged man with a beard began to fall into deep thought as he looked at the data on the disk .
He invested almost all the money he had.
David Capital is not a big institution, with a scale of only US$700 to 800 million. However, he has invested US$500 million in a single stock.
Yesterday and today, he mobilized all the available cash, and even sold some other stocks during the trading session to increase his heavily-weighted stocks.
Last night, they sat together for a rare occasion and discussed today's arrangements.
They know that their opponents are very strong.
So he prepared a plan to make the other party consume a large amount of chips.
This situation is simple to explain.
That is to deliberately create signs of their disunity, make the other party think that some of their people are running away, and then take the opportunity to increase short contracts.
In this way, a large amount of the opponent's cash flow can be consumed, which is acceptable to them. After all, the money is in their own hands. Even if they take over some chips from their allies, as long as the opponent's short position is liquidated, they will be forced to buy a large amount of chips, no matter how high the cost.
At that time, wouldn't those who held the chips make a lot of money?
In theory, this is a win-win situation for Wall Street.
But what puzzled David was...
Have we attacked our allies too much?
He is about to raise the sign, and not only is there no one to help him share the pressure, but he is also just smashing it?
Have you overacted?
The matchmaker this time was a guy named Maurice Beale, who was well-known in the circle for being a rule-abiding person.
This is also the reason why many people are willing to believe him.
As for McPherson and Wilson, who were the first to betray yesterday, Morris has already assured that he has grasped the whereabouts of the two men. These two traitors will not have a good life.
Now David couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked up the phone and called Morris.
"Mr. Bill, my name is David. I need to tell you something. I don't have any money left. I'm poorer than a bankrupt homeless person on the street."
"Yes, I don't have any other way to take it on anymore. I hope my other friends can help me."
"I think the opponent's funds have been almost exhausted, so I hope Mr. Bill can launch an attack."
As long as the stock price goes up, everything he does today will be worth it.
Even if he really cannot make his opponent's position go bankrupt at that time, he can still sell off some of his chips appropriately.
The stock has only risen by 20 points now, and it will definitely rise to 40 points, 50 points, or even 60 points next.
He will make money.
Seven years ago, this group of people had a tacit understanding and everyone sat together to make money.
Over the years, he hardly used his brain and just did things casually, and was able to bring in a lot of funds for the company during the best performance months every year.
Then, he made tens of millions of dollars every year without doing anything.
It has nothing to do with so-called ability. They don’t invest in companies, they just invest in stocks.
There is almost no risk overall because almost all the stocks involved are controlled by them. If they want the stocks to rise, they will rise.
Anyone who needs profit can get their allies to raise the price with just one phone call. Whether it is cashing out tens of millions of dollars or increasing the net value by ten or twenty points, it is easy to satisfy investors.
So they didn't find this matter surprising.
The volatility at the end of yesterday's trading was due to the discovery of betrayal by an ally, which caused the market to be undecided for a while.
Now there is no need to worry at all, someone has come forward to talk to everyone and they will not fail.
Even though he has completely lost his room for maneuver at this point, he is still confident of winning the future.
Morris and his team have a lot of data and know that their opponents have more than 8 billion US dollars in short contracts. Once the positions are liquidated, such a large amount of money will flow into the market. Whoever has the chips will earn more.
His current dilemma is to wait for the profits later.
But at this moment, he found that an order for one of his heavily invested stocks was suddenly executed.
The amount of that order was very strange.
1313 shares.
Damn bastard, who would use this kind of number!
This is an unlucky number because there were thirteen people at the table at the Last Supper.
No one likes to eat the last meal before execution, so in most occasions, they avoid mentioning this number.
How could someone do such a thing!
and……
Not only the stocks he holds heavily, but also the stocks held heavily by some other allies have shown such numbers.
Moreover, after the numbers appeared, the transaction speed of the entire market increased sharply.
There are even some situations of collapse.
They were already taking on the chips like crazy, but there were too many chips thrown at them, leaving them no time to react.
Before, there was a regular pattern of 20 million US dollars, but now there is no pattern at all.
It doesn’t look like the opponent’s short order.
He was a little panicked this time.
Because the situation was out of control, in just a short period of time, the stock price not only did not rise, but instead fell by two points.
The trading volume has obviously gone crazy.
Where is the money?
So much money?
Where have they all gone?
In these three days, he has invested nearly 200 million US dollars.
Even if it is the opponent's short position, with such a ruthless attack, Morris's position should have risen, right?
This means that the opponent has already consumed a lot of funds at a low level, and it will become easier to defeat the opponent next.
Thinking of the 1313 stocks that suddenly appeared before, a breath of death lingered in his heart.
He picked up the phone and said to Morris in a cold tone: "Bill, did you betray us?"
"Sir, all we need is profit."
"We can still benefit from defeating our opponents! This is not a reason for you to be a traitor! Bill, traitors must be crucified!"
"No, only the honest will be crucified..."
David's mind went blank. The already cold air couldn't stop the sweat from dripping down his forehead.
He gritted his teeth and showed an angry expression.
But he knew that the other party couldn't see it.
Finally, he asked, "Why? Can you tell me?"
"Because we failed. Our enemy is very cunning. He didn't put all his money at stake. If we want to defeat him later, we will need another 10 billion US dollars, which we can't take out..."
"Then you can temporarily give up other stocks and focus on blowing him up!"
David did not accept this reasoning.
The other party quickly said, "What if it explodes? Sir, does it make sense for us to make $20 billion from him? We have too many people, and too much of our cash in the market has been drained."
David understood.
I just feel that even if I defeat my opponent, I won’t make any money.
In order to defeat their opponent, they incurred a lot of unnecessary losses. In addition, with the presence of two traitors, by the time the opponent had absorbed 20 billion US dollars in chips, the chips in the hands of others would be worthless.
Overall, it may still be a loss.
But now, at least for Morris, he will definitely not lose money, but can make hundreds of millions of dollars.
Of course, Morris is not the only one making money.
Among his allies, there must be several or even dozens who are making money.
There was only one scene in his mind, that is, the dry season came on the grassland, there was a food shortage, and the hyenas began to kill their companions in order to survive.
In order to survive, you can do anything.
Without external food as supplement, the companions inside are the best reserve food.
There is no doubt that this time, at least sixty or seventy institutions have become the targets of being shared by a dozen or twenty institutions.
Unfortunately, David was the one being eaten.
He had no money left, only chips.
The bargaining chips at this point are like a prostitute's panties, which can be taken off for any money.
"Mr. Bill, I have one last question. What if the other party joins the game?"
"Of course I'll blow him up."
After hearing the result, David hung up the phone.
He knew that he had no chance of turning the situation around.
Selfish allies and cunning opponents were the main reasons for this failure.
If any one condition is missing, it will not fail so quickly.
At the beginning, Morris designed this game so that he could advance or retreat. He could defeat his opponent by advancing, or he could transfer chips and reap allies by retreating.
