Chapter 714:-for-tat

Link had a video conference with those shareholders. Those shareholders spoke out in the hope of mobilizing funds to keep Atlanta's stock price.

Link waited until they were almost over before he said, "This is clearly a sniping attack on the Bank of Atlanta." And I'm worried that Atlanta is just one of their targets. If we use money from other banks, it won't help us. ”

When the shareholders heard him say this, they fell silent for a moment. Because most of them are also shareholders of several other banks.

Link saw that they were quiet and said, "Now I have a solution." That is to use my private money recovery to snipe those people. ”

Some shareholders raised doubts: "If the shares are recovered, it will lead to an imbalance in the bank's shares, and even be forced to delist." I recommend borrowing money from other banks. ”

Link looked at the shareholder through the screen and said, "Mr. Anthony, the question is not whether we can borrow money. But you should also receive the rumors that the United States will tighten money in the near future. We may be asked to repay the loan halfway through the use of the borrowed funds. In that case, our situation will only get worse. ”

The shareholder suddenly stopped talking. Although he feels that having more money into the bank is not necessarily a bad thing. But it's not necessarily a good thing.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Link continued: "I will arrange for a lawyer to sign an agreement with the shareholders, and after the fact, when the stock price returns to a certain level, the shares absorbed from the secondary market will gradually be put back into the secondary market." ”

Hearing him say this, those shareholders could not find a reason to object.

Seeing that they agreed, Link added, "I'll send my special assistant to Atlanta right away." ”

After the video conference, Link's brow was still furrowed, not much easier than convincing the shareholders. As he said, the Atlanta Development Bank is just the beginning. But if he wants to close a certain stock, he needs to pay a relatively large price.

Whether the cost can be recovered depends on the whole market. Only if the U.S. financial markets really adjust more sharply, as Neil judged, will his plan be able to recoup the losses he has made in resisting those enemies.

Soon in the afternoon, trading on the New York Stock Exchange continued. Claire's phone rang suddenly, and when he answered it, his face sank, and he said, "I know." ”

After he hung up, he said to Link: "They did it to the Northern Development Bank at the same time, and the stock price fell 5% in 10 minutes." As with the same trading data as Atlanta, most of them are large orders. The trading account is also relatively fixed. ”

Link nodded, then pulled out the phone and dialed Neil's number.

Now Neil is in Xiangjiang. Link wants him to be in charge of Xiangjiang. Neil agreed without hesitation.

"Link!

"The Bank of Atlanta set a threshold of forty dollars. ”

"Roger!"

After Link hung up Neil's phone, he immediately dialed a call: "Mr. Petrov, now I need your help. ”

"I'll go as planned. ”

……

"Bank, what I told you last time, please. ”

……

"Jack! ”

Link made more than a dozen phone calls in a row, not only from his friends but also from his companies.

He finally called Ames: "It's me. You can do what you told me before. ”

"Okay, boss. ”

Not long after Link's phone call, Ames held a press conference to announce: "In order to withstand the expected stock market volatility, Mr. Link Hans has decided to borrow a total of $40 billion from the five major European banks as collateral for five years of income from the Hank Farm oil field." and borrow US$30 billion from the Bank of Asia from the proceeds from the sales of Blue Lagoon wines over the next three years. A total of $70 billion was borrowed specifically to recover the shares of his companies. If necessary, Mr. Hans will play his part in stabilizing the U.S. financial markets. ”

When everyone heard the news, they were blindsided. They don't know what the hell Link is up to. Is it to stabilize investor confidence in his companies?

However, Ames' announcement did make investors more optimistic about the stock prices of Atlanta Bank and Northern Investment Bank.

For a while, before Link could make a move, the stock prices of the two banks fell much slower. The number of buy orders began to increase.

Claire made a phone call when she saw this, after which he said to Link: "Small orders are starting to increase, it should be a retail investor." ”

When retail investors make a move, they will divide the chips in the hands of those opponents who buy and sell themselves. This is naturally a good thing for Link.

Link is not afraid of stocks circulating in the secondary market, what he is afraid of is that the stocks in the secondary market will be collected.

On the contrary, the people on that New York estate don't want their stocks to be slowly thinned by retail investors. That's the bullet they used against Link.

The bald man listened to his report, looked at the time, and asked, "How much is the market paying now?"

"The visible offer is about 1.28 million lots. The maximum price quoted for a buy order of $40 is one million lots. "It looks like they're trying to hold on to the $40 mark

The bald head thought for a moment and said: "Within 30 seconds before the market closes, our previous buy order was cancelled, and the buying price of 40 US dollars was set, and a total of 1.28 million lots were put out. ”

"Okay. "The trader understands the purpose of the supervisor. "What about the Northern Development Bank?"

"Leave it alone for now. "The bald supervisor saw that the opponent had no means of dealing with the drop in stock prices at all. Understand that the idea of distracting the other person is unattainable. He might as well concentrate on keeping Atlanta's stock price down. "Get the Bank of Atlanta first. ”

As soon as the Atlanta Development Bank's share price shatters investor confidence, its share price will naturally collapse. And they're also draining Link's money. As long as their plan succeeds, the money they have lost now will eventually be able to be earned.

However, Atlanta's stock price plunged again before the market closed, and finally closed at around $42.

The trader's face was gloomy: "It seems that they really want to hold on to the price of forty dollars." ”

The bald director smiled and said, "That's okay, we'll continue tomorrow." "When it comes to money, he doesn't lack it.

Although they have achieved their goal of suppressing prices, all the 280,000 lots of stocks they have just given changed hands, and none of them have been recovered by their people.

While their goal is achieved, they are also selling at a loss. Unless they can buy it back for less than $40, they're losing money. If they can't buy back that many shares. One less share, and they lose about fifty dollars.

But the bald owner does not consider the current loss to be the final loss. Maybe they have the opportunity to buy the stock again at the price of ten dollars. At that time, no amount of damage can be easily recovered.

And Link just announced that he had borrowed $70 billion, and that money was their target.

And Link saw that the stock price of Atlanta Development Bank plunged before the market closed, and finally there was a buy order of 1 million hundreds of thousands of lots of 40 dollars, and Link was sure that his previous guess was correct. The goal of those people is not just to make money from the stock of his bank, but to finally take control of his bank.

The next day, it was just as he thought. Yesterday was just a trial. This time, the share prices of his major listed companies have been suppressed.

The media is also promoting the fact that the share prices of the main companies of the Ozette consortium have been hit hard, and commentators have been invited to decipher Hans Investment's huge borrowing behavior: "Personally, I think it's Link-Hans's money flow that is wrong." ”

In contrast, Link has all publicly traded companies report their latest results.

The performance of those companies also shows that Link's companies are financially healthy. But some tabloids began to appear, saying: "According to people familiar with the matter, the FBI is investigating whether Hanse Investments' lending is legal." News like that.

And the FBI has an ambiguous attitude towards this matter, neither denying nor admitting it.

Jessica naturally knew that Link was fighting those people right now. After dinner, she saw the news and couldn't help but curse the birth: "Damn, they use this method again." They're going to hell. ”

But there was not much worry on Link's face, because the money did not appear in the United States at all. The Yankees are not qualified to check if they want to.

"It doesn't matter what they say. They just want to undermine market confidence. He laughs. "That's fine. Those people believe the rumors, and I can do it freely. ”

The power of rumors is enormous. On Wednesday, Link's major listed company stocks were sold off. At the same time, the stock price was suppressed. Several listed banks, Strus & Co., Benehans Group, and Springs Pharmaceuticals...... These are the main companies that Link controls.

The other side also seems to have probed Link's bottom line, and they always quickly suppress the price to a certain extent.

Link seems to have no choice, after the stock price has been suppressed to a certain extent, he continues to invest in the recovery of those stocks, his approach is very simple, is to use a certain price to recover the shares in the hands of investors who have lost confidence, to prevent these stocks from falling into the hands of opponents.

And his opponents don't seem to care about his approach at all.

Neil also saw that something was wrong. He called Link and said, "Link, they're draining your money. ”

Link naturally saw it, and he replied with a smile, saying, "I know, but they're also losing money." Moreover, we are not without tricks. He knew Neil was worried about the changes in the U.S. stock market later.

Now that the opponent is not caring about the loss and consuming his funds, he is naturally sure that he will recover the cost later. The best way to recover costs is, of course, a stock market crash-style adjustment like in 1987. On the day of the "stock market crash", the stock prices of major stocks fell by more than 20%, but two days later, the stock market quickly gained a foothold due to the capital bailout.

By that time, the Dow Jones had already fallen by 43%.

The stock price was rescued by the concentration of capital, and the stock prices of various companies soon rose again.

Investors thanked capital for bailing out the market, but in reality they lost a lot.

Capital stabilizes the stock price in a short period of time, raises the stock price, and makes a profit by selling the newly recovered shares.

Those stockholders are typical of being sold and helping people to make money.
