Chapter 0007: The Battle of Rothschild
"The Battle of Rothschild was planned and launched by Nathan Rothschild, the second-generation head of the Rothschild family!"
"On June 18, 1815, a war was fought off the outskirts of Brussels, Belgium, --- the Battle of Waterloo, which would decide the fate of Europe. ”
"The two sides are Napoleon the Great, Emperor of the French Empire, and General Wellington, the most powerful commander of the Empire. ”
"The outcome of this battle will determine not only the fate of the entire post-war European continent, but also the fate of thousands of investors. ”
"You know, at that time, the British Empire, known as the empire on which the sun never sets, launched foreign wars for many years to colonize the world, and the British issued astronomical British bonds to raise military spending. ”
"If Britain loses the Battle of Waterloo, Britain will inevitably escape the nightmare of being destroyed by Napoleon, and the British public debt will naturally be worthless. ”
"And if Britain wins, the whole of Europe will become its colony, Britain will be stronger and richer, and the British public debt will naturally rise, and prices will soar into the sky. ”
So on the London Stock Exchange at the time, thousands of investors took part in the gamble, waiting for the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo. ”
"On the evening of 18 June, the situation at the Battle of Waterloo became clear, and Napoleon's defeat was decided. ”
"At this time, not far away, a messenger of the Rothschild family, a man named Ross Woods, was ordered to witness the battle. ”
He then immediately rode his fast horse to Brussels, then to the port of Ostend, and finally jumped onto a clipper. ”
"Ross Woods risked his life to cross the English Channel in high winds and waves, and arrived on the shore of Foxton, England, in the early morning of the 19th, where Nathan Rothschild himself waited and was informed of the state of the battle. ”
As Nathan hurried into the London Stock Exchange, the anxious and agitated crowd waiting for the battle report fell silent, and all eyes were fixed on Nathan's expressionless, unfathomable face. ”
At this point, Nathan slowed down, walked to the throne known as the 'Rothschild Pillars', and gave a deep look to the Rothschild traders who were around him. ”
Immediately, everyone rushed to the trading desk without a sound and began to sell British government bonds. There was an immediate commotion in the hall, some people began to talk to each other, and many more remained standing in place at a loss. ”
At this time, the equivalent of hundreds of thousands of dollars of British government bonds was violently thrown into the market, and the price of government bonds began to fall, and then the price of government bonds began to collapse like a sea of orders. ”
"At this time, someone on the trading floor finally reacted and exclaimed, 'Rothschild knows!' and 'Wellington is defeated!'"
"Everyone immediately came back to their senses like an electric shock, and the sell-off turned into panic, and everyone at once threw away the worthless British public debt in their hands and kept as little wealth as they could. ”
"After a few hours of frenzied selling, UK government bonds have become a pile of rubbish, with only 5% of par value remaining. A mysterious smile crossed Nathan's face. ”
Then many of the traders around Nathan rushed to their respective desks again and began to buy every British bond they could see in the market. ”
"At 11 o'clock in the evening of the 21st, General Wellington's messenger, Henry Percy, finally arrived in London, and the news was that Napoleon's army had been defeated and France was finished!
And when the news came, the British public debt rose sharply, and everyone knew that Nathan had been tricked. ”
"And Nathan made 20 times as much money in one day, more than Britain and France had gained in the previous decades of war combined!"
The Battle of Waterloo made Nathan the largest creditor of the empire, and thus dominated the issuance of British public bonds. ”
"The Bank of England, the central bank of the United Kingdom, is controlled by Nathan and controls the money supply of the entire United Kingdom, and the economic lifeblood of the United Kingdom is tightly pinched in the hands of the Rothschilds!"
The story was finally finished, and Qiao Tianyu glanced at the little chubby face full of confusion, "How is it, do you understand?"
"I don't understand!" Chubby frowned, still confused.
"I understand Nathan Rothschild's story, but what does it have to do with your Lehman deal?"
Uh, okay......
After confirming the eyes, there is no doubt that he is only investing in Xiaobai!
No way, it's not easy to be a teacher's first lesson!
"Investment is about 'potential', that is, the direction of the market!" Qiao Tianyu explained carefully.
"But if you just blindly follow the direction of the market, buy in the bull market and sell in the bear market, then you will always be half a step behind the market, and you will never be able to outperform the market!"
"A true investment guru wouldn't do that!"
"The investment master conforms to the market, but he is more about using the market, creating his own 'momentum', making the market obedient for my use, and making money for me, which is what the master does!"
"160 years ago, Nathan Rothschild could not have shaken the huge bond market of the empire on his own finances, but he judged the situation and used the crucial event of the Battle of Waterloo to build momentum!"
Through his unique intelligence advantage, he spread false news about Britain's defeat, guided investors to sell British government bonds, depressed the price of British government bonds, and gave Nathan a chance to sweep British public bonds and make a lot of money. ”
"So the battle of Rothschild is not so much Nathan defeating many investors, but Nathan leading investors to defeat investors!"
"In the same way, Junji Sato is the executive deputy director of Lehman Brothers' business and investment department, Lehman is his home field, and if we want to beat him on his turf, it's just a dream, it's impossible!"
"In that trade battle just now, the only one who can defeat Junji Sato is himself!So what I need to do is to guide Junji Sato to defeat himself!"
"Guide Junji Sato to defeat himself by himself?"
The more the little chubby face listened, the more mysterious it became, and his face was full of questions.
"Yes, you have to remember that the financial market is like a battlefield, and throughout the ages, those who follow the rules will never win the war!"
"History will always remember the laughter of the winners, not the intrigues used by the victors to fight for victory!"
"In the same way, in the financial battlefield, the winner is the king and the loser is Kou, you can take any means to win the final victory, there is no shame in conspiracy and trickery, and the shame is that you will not play tricks, this is the iron law of the financial battlefield!"
"Junji Sato is the hottest investment master on Wall Street today, it is impossible for him not to understand this iron law, and besides, he is on his turf today, how can he not play tricks?
