The quadrennial U.S. presidential election is about to be announced.

No matter who is elected, he is the president of the United States, and no matter whether he is from a noble or low background, as long as he has done some work that is beneficial to the people, he will have to hold a memorial service for him after his death, and he will have to lower the flag at half-mast, and he can also print it on blue dollar bills.

And for the opponent, it will not be too disappointed, the two sides shake hands, congratulate each other, encourage each other, push the cup to change the lamp, and celebrate with the crown.

After entering the White House, political opponents can enter the cabinet, opponents can participate in politics, party members of the two parties can advance and retreat freely, communicate at any time, and dual party members are not uncommon, there is neither a life-and-death line struggle, nor a cruel and ruthless class struggle, you have me, I have you.

It's an American-style political game.

But for the capital markets, who will be elected president is a matter of great importance.

Just like on October 28, the price of NYMEX crude oil immediately fell below the $50 per barrel mark due to the increase in the number of votes received by Klee, and many speculators took profits and sold crude oil futures contracts.

Immediately after the number of votes of Bu Shi caught up, the international crude oil price immediately rose by a few percentage points.

With this in and out, billions of dollars around the world have been invisibly evaporated.

Terrifying!

At 7 a.m. local time on November 2, voting for the presidential election began, and voters went to various polling stations to vote.

There were 538 total electoral votes in the United States, and a candidate was elected when he received more than 270 votes.

For example, California, which has the largest number of 53 members, has 53 electoral college votes, and the fewest such as Alaska and Hawaii have only 3 votes.

For example, if a majority of California voters vote for 10 as president, then the 53 votes in California will be counted as 10, and vice versa.

According to the latest statistics, Bushi received 254 electoral votes and Kerry received 242.

The final votes have not yet been announced: Ohio (20 votes), Wisconsin (10 votes), New Mexico (5 votes), and Iowa (7 votes).

The whole world is watching.

In the Wells Futures Store on Fifth Avenue, Guan Qiu and Pu Ruo were also watching live TV in the hall.

On TV, the live broadcaster No. 1 was excitedly saying: [Now there are Ohio, Wisconsin, this is a lot of votes, so the Republican Party still has a fight, and the current election situation is that the Republican Party accounts for a lot of Democrats, so now the Democratic Party is very critical. 】

Announcer No. 2 said: [Yes, they have already cheered again just now, and they think that Bu Shi may win Ohio, and if he wins, he will be quite sure of this election......]

Pu Ruo secretly glanced at Guan Qiu, and the expression on his face ...... Seems to be laughing?

Guan Qiu caught her eyes, turned his head and bared his teeth, "It's not a big deal, even if you lose, I can feed you." ”

Pu Ruo endured it, but he still couldn't hold back, and said, "Do you think it's possible?"

Pu Ruo means that it is impossible to let him raise.

Guan Qiu said: "Everything is possible. ”

Pu Ruo said firmly: "I said it was impossible. ”

Guan Qiu said: "Then let's make a bet......"

Pu Ruo interrupted: "Don't bet." ”

Guan Qiu said: "You are afraid of losing. ”

Pu Ruo raised his head arrogantly and didn't look at him.

Guan Qiu didn't continue to tease her.

Half an hour later, the Wisconsin stats came out, and it was John Klee.

Klee's votes now became 252, just two short of George Buten's 254.

Guan Qiu didn't know that this was the result in his previous life, and he was a little surprised, and Pu Ruo's brows frowned.

More than a dozen staff members in the hall were also talking, and they were supporting Bu Shi.

The live broadcaster No. 1 on TV excitedly said: "If they lose the electoral vote in Ohio, they will basically lose. 】

Announcer No. 1: [It's almost open now, most of it has come out, so everyone is very nervous right now, if Ohio can win, it's a very big affirmation for Bush......]

Guan Qiu stood up and said, "Let's go!"

Pu Ruo hesitated.

Now that Klee has a big chance of winning, those profit-taking speculators are bound to start taking back, and now is the best time to enter if they want to gamble.

Of course, if John Klee became president, they would have died a terrible death.

Hundreds of millions of dollars of funds are likely to be blown up by international speculators within a few minutes!

Guan Qiu took two steps, didn't hear the sound, and turned his head to see that this fearless domineering female president actually hesitated.

He didn't think much about it, he walked straight to her, took her hand and said, "Trust me!"

Pu Ruo was led upstairs.

One step to live, one step to die!

To bet, or not to bet?

In fact, Guan Qiu had already made a decision for her, but she was thinking about whether to persuade her in the end?

Guan Qiu in front of her seemed to say to her, and seemed to say to herself, "Some people say that 99% of everything in this world can be solved with money, but they didn't tell me that the remaining 1% needs more money."

Now I know, so I'm going to make enough money to solve any problem. ”

Pu Ruo struggled for a moment, didn't break free, and said, "Any questions?"

Guan Qiu said firmly: "Yes!"

Pu Ruo said: "Love is also okay?"

Guan Qiu said without hesitation: "Yes!"

Before Pu Ruo was about to refute, he said: "Money itself is a part of strength! If there is no money, how can a person at the top of society like me have the opportunity to know Bai Fumei like you?"

Pu Ruo disagreed, "Could it be that when I met you, you were very rich?"

Guan Qiu said: "Then if it weren't for my shame and courage, would you go to work in 67.com? We have the opportunity to come to the United States? We have the opportunity to stand here and talk about these issues?"

Park wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

As Guan Qiu said, if he was still the small boss who opened a black agency in Anlin Town, they would not have had the opportunity to stand together on the land of New York today.

Guan Qiu just felt it casually, and accidentally said too much, so he hurriedly closed his voice.

I happened to arrive at the door of the trading room upstairs, and the little conflict of ideas was quickly left behind by them and plunged into the tense crude oil futures trading.

……

……

2004 U.S. local time, 12:10 a.m.

Announcer No. 1 is shouting hoarsely: "We see that so far Bu Shi has won Florida, Klee has won Pennsylvania, and Ohio is as important as Florida in 2000. 】

Announcer No. 2: [I think this time may be a little different from the last time, that is, Klee has to win Ohio to become president, and Bushi may lose Ohio.] If Kerry can't win against Ohio, its odds are slim. 】

Announcer No. 1: [Now the election has reached the last and most critical point, and the most critical thing now is Ohio, and I have also invited election research experts ...... on my left]

Countless pairs of eyes around the world are watching the live broadcast of the U.S. presidential election on television.

The stock exchange on Wall Street, the Bank of New York Building, the **** Building, the Manhattan Trust Bank Building, the Xinfu Bank Building, the Deutsche Bank Building, the Citibank Building, etc., countless financial predators are watching.

No one can guarantee that Bushi will be re-elected as the 55th president of the United States, nor can he guarantee that Klee will not be president.

So at this time, no one gambled, including those famous Wall Street bigwigs, like Warren Buffett, financial predator Soros, Wall Street wolf king Carl Icahn, hedge fund godfather Leo, and Simmons, the father of quantitative investment, he didn't make a move.

It's not that you don't dare, but it's unnecessary.

In addition to taking off that halo, they are still investors, and the interests of their customers are paramount, and they all maintain restraint in this kind of gambling matter.

That's when someone made a move!

"Someone is going long on a big spree!"

"All short orders for oil-related futures have been swept away!"

"5000 lots ......"

"10,000 lots ......"

"20,000 lots ......"

"30,000 lots ......"

Everyone was stunned by this crazy scene.

It's a real gamble.

Bet on the election of the president.

This is an absolute fucking lunatic.

The futures market is not a one-shot trade.

Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood.

In this way, it is not necessary to bet on all his net worth to be elected president.

Are you going to jump the Empire State Building if you lose?

No matter how shocked these financial predators were, in the case of such a large number of longs, the market began to rise, and all energy-related stock prices began to rise.

At this time, in the **** bank building, an old man and a young man were talking.

"What should we do, boss, should we enter?"

"What the hell are those people?"

"According to the news from Wells, the main trading room is called Pu· Ruo, who studied at the Wharton School in Pennsylvania; Qiu is the owner of an Internet website in China. ”

After a long silence, the old voice said, "Wait a little longer." Also, keep an eye on their actions and keep me informed of any news. ”

"Okay boss!"

The same conversation was seen in other buildings.

The names Pu Ruo and Guan Qiu were quickly familiar to the financial predators on Wall Street.

The mystery was revealed two hours later.

George Bushi won the Ohio vote, locked the presidency early with 274 votes, and successfully served 55 terms as president of the United States.

John Klee lost the campaign with 252 votes. Although the final results for New Mexico and Iowa are still in, that doesn't matter anymore.

When the results came out, those who supported Bu Shi naturally cheered, while those who opposed Bu Shi hung their heads.

However, the US presidential race ended early, but the battle in the capital market has just begun.

When the results were announced, the international crude oil price rushed from $51.14 per barrel to $54.26 per barrel in just one minute, and then quickly rose to $55.67 per barrel.

The rate of increase is simply scary.

The prices of global oil futures varieties have also begun to skyrocket.

Light oil, natural gas, unleaded gasoline, thermal oil, Brent crude oil from the New York Shops Exchange;

Middle East Crude Oil on the Singapore Exchange;

Gasoline, kerosene, diesel, crude oil from the Tokyo Industrial Products Exchange;

Brent crude oil from the British International Petroleum Exchange, diesel and many more.

And in the Wells Futures store on Fifth Avenue, the assistants who Pu Ruo called over have fallen into a frenzy.

Now it's no longer called making money, it's called robbing money.

Every minute is tens of millions of dollars on paper, which is simply scared to death.

Now they have become the biggest promoter of international crude oil prices, and it is no problem for small retail investors to drink some soup with them, and those large international investors do not dare to go against the trend, otherwise they will be smashed into tens of thousands of empty hands and immediately beat them back to their original shape.

At this moment, Wells Futures has turned into a huge gold-swallowing monster, and countless dollars have been absorbed and then swallowed in one bite.

However, at this time, no one cares about how much money is made, but is enjoying the pleasure of doing whatever they want and entering freely in the international crude oil market.

Under the general trend, there is no need to worry about unexpected situations at all.

……

……

At 8 o'clock in the evening, four hours had passed since the announcement of the presidential election results, and Pu Ruo, who was addicted to it, finally came to his senses, stood up and asked Guan Qiu: "How is it, do you want to accept it?"

Guan Qiu laughed and said, "Okay, Mingjin withdraws his troops!"
