Chapter 379: Trader's Mistakes

The message is confined to a very small circle, and not many people know about it.

On the island of New York, a young guest lives on the second floor of the house, and only a few nannies who have signed a non-disclosure agreement and receive a high salary every month have access to her.

In the future, the news that he has a daughter may be made public, but not now, otherwise it is easy to be guessed something, which is considered a happy event, but after all, it also involves a scandal, Ye Dongqing does not want the child to know about it when he grows up, at least before he has a mature psychology, it is best not to know this.

The days are back on track.

I haven't been busy with business for a week, and I tease the children every day after getting up, and I'm in a good mood.

In this way, February quietly arrived, Ye Dongqing finally remembered to help the child come up with a name, rummaged through a lot of Chinese books, and finally settled on the word "Ying", originally the first choice was "Yu", but Ye Yu (amateur) did not sound very good, and was decisively passed.

The nickname is still under consideration, no matter what, being a first-time father, this excitement will probably last for a long time, quite a beautiful mixed-race girl......

Adults must understand that there are some things that really cannot be done with hard work alone, and luck is also quite important.

In Ye Dongqing's hedge fund company, a trader with a lot of authority recently caused a mess, because he hit the wrong number and failed to find out afterwards, resulting in a loss of more than $40 million.

He thought he had emptied the stock, but in fact he didn't, just brewed a cup of coffee and chatted with others for a few words, during which the Google stock in his hand fell all the way, and it was actually still profitable, but the more than 40 million US dollars could have been put in the pocket.

There are countless tragedies in history caused by traders' mistakes, ranging from the loss of nearly 100 million dollars by smashing a football ball to the keyboard, and the loss of millions of dollars by unintentionally hitting the keyboard, just in 2002, a trader at Bear Stearns Bank in the United States mistakenly turned a sell order of 4 million dollars into 4 billion dollars. Before the mistake occurred, $600 million in stocks was traded, which was believed to be the culprit behind the fall in the Dow Jones Industrial Average that day.

It will be interesting to see this kind of thing in the news, now it is happening in his own company, it is not fun at all, Ye Dongqing is extremely depressed, worried about how to explain to investors, they have invested money, and now they have lost some of it, so they should naturally explain the reason.

Shortly after learning the news, he went out in a helicopter.

There was only one apron on the roof of the Puchuan Building, and when I arrived, I found that there was a helicopter parked on it, so I had to borrow the apron of the building next door.

Helicopters are convenient, but there are too few parking spaces, especially in this kind of high-rise city, there will be a helipad on the roof of the Cobra Building in the future, in addition to planning a viewing platform, construction has already begun, the engineering team began to lay the foundation after the station, and the Texas-based Bover Betty Company is responsible for the main construction, New York's local construction companies do not have that strength, but they also made some business from it, which was the result of the intervention of Mayor Bloomberg, the super-rich mayor did not want the tallest building in New York, but there were no New York builders involved。

After negotiating with the security guard, I got off the elevator and walked all the way to the entrance of Puchuan Building, there were always strangers on the road who greeted Ye Dongqing, and some people wanted to take a photo with him, which was not an excessive reason, so I did not refuse.

To do business in New York, you must have a good relationship with the local people, and if you become a good person in their minds, you can save Ye Dongqing a lot of unnecessary troubles and increase her influence.

After coming to the hedge fund department he founded, the atmosphere was obviously a little dignified, people already knew how big the loss was this time, there was a guy sitting there in despair, Ye Dongqing knew him, it was this middle-aged trader named Tom who made a mistake in the transaction amount.

The reason why Google is expected to fall recently is mainly because last year's earnings report was not good, and other expenses rose sharply while advertising revenue shrank.

This also has something to do with Ye Dongqing.

At the beginning, Ye Dongqing had a little contradiction with an independent director of Google, so he went to Yang Zhiyuan, the founder of Yahoo, to help give some development suggestions, which directly made Yahoo start to refine the first station, split out several subsidiaries, slightly adjusted the development strategy, and paid more attention to the overseas market, and went all out to confront Google.

This adjustment worked well, and Yahoo's annual earnings report last year was significantly better than Google's, causing Yahoo's market value to soar and Google's upward momentum to be suppressed.

When he was at home, he didn't just take care of the children, Ye Dongqing was also paying attention to these, so he arranged for someone to sell some orders this morning, focusing on the direction from bullish to bearish in the short term, but he didn't expect this to lead to a relatively large amount of unnecessary losses.

On the whole, it is still profitable, and the short order that has just opened a position has helped him make a lot of money, but a mistake is a mistake, if he is not mistaken, this money will not be lost in vain.

In the seventies and eighties, people liked to name their children Tom, Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, these are all mistakes, Tom has a good resume, he made millions of dollars from the Southeast Asian market in 1997, and he accurately predicted the overheating of the Internet, and used empty orders to help Morgan Stanley earn more than 20 million dollars, and he belongs to the old man in the hedge fund industry, who has been working in this industry for more than ten years after graduating from Yale.

It took a little effort to dig it up, and it is considered a more capable type, otherwise it would not have given such a high level of authority, and it is almost 600 million US dollars in assets in its hands, and it can be more if you count the leverage.

Mr. Wu Di is a violent temper, after being invited by Ye Dongqing from Citibank, he is now holding a position similar to the chief operating officer, and he just jumped ship less than half a month before he came out of this file, and then called Tom to the office and scolded him, probably taking the opportunity to establish prestige, the people under his hands are not afraid of him, and the team is difficult to manage, Ye Dongqing can be a good boss in the eyes of employees, with a good temper and ability, but executives can't get along with ordinary employees.

Mr. Wu Di has already told Ye Dongqing on the phone, at this moment he walked through the office area with a straight face, and also wanted to put some pressure on these employees, not to force too hard, but not to let them be too relaxed, with a lot of money in their hands, a mistake may make Ye Dongqing and other investors lose a lot.

Whether to expel Tom or not hasn't been considered for the time being, but even if he doesn't expel him, there must be a punishment, and he must be ruthless, or that sentence, otherwise the team will be difficult to ......
