Chapter 122: Falling

Hearing Tang Bao's words, Yang Yang and the others were all holding their breath, their spirits were greatly lifted, and their eyes flashed with excitement. Because the more serious and solemn Tang Bao said at this time, it meant that they were going to do a big job. For those of them who are elite traders, there's nothing more exciting than taking it personally.

So.

After Tang Bao finished admonishing, Yang Yang and other traders all responded excitedly, and they did not have any opinions on the requirements of long-term closure to the outside world...... At the beginning, Tang Bao ordered them to apply for a three-month vacation from the company, and they were already mentally prepared for long-term "seclusion" in advance.

"Boss, now you can talk about the specific plan of action." Among the five traders, only Yang Yang is more familiar with Tang Bao, and Tang Bao does not have gold futures to criticize him, so he is more open.

"Hmm."

Tang Bao smiled, at this time, he didn't plan to continue to hide it.

Organize the language a little.

Tang Bao began to tell everyone his thoughts, "According to the information I have received, the Kuwait Investment Authority should be in secret negotiations with the British government to negotiate the Kuwait Investment Authority's shareholding in the British BP Oil Company. However, the combined strength of the two countries is not at the same level at all, and in the end, it will be difficult for the Kuwait Investment Authority to resist political pressure from the United Kingdom, and will obediently accept the British demand to reduce its stake in BP Oil to a level that does not pose a threat to the United Kingdom. ”

Yes.

After listening to Tang Bao's analysis. Yang Yang's eyes suddenly became excited, and he knew what the Kuwait Investment Authority's reduction would mean.

Since the beginning of this year.

The stock price of BP Oil in the United Kingdom bucked the trend. But Yang Yang, who knows the inside story, knows that this is not because of any surprising profit expectations of BP Oil, but because of the continuous increase in holdings of the Kuwait Investment Authority, which has dragged up the stock price.

At this time.

If the Kuwait Investment Authority suddenly sells off a large number of stocks, it will deal a heavy blow to market confidence, and the most direct manifestation may be that some investors will follow the trend and panic sell. caused the stock price to fall......

"Boss......" Yang Yang said excitedly. After concluding that the share price of BP oil in the UK will plummet in the near future, he understood that the opportunity to make money had come. The expressions of the other four traders were similar to Yang Yang's. It's like a beast staring at its prey.

"Boss, you tell us, what do we need to do?"

"Hey......

Tang Bao laughed hesitantly and said, "BP oil shares will plummet." Naturally, we cannot afford to miss this wonderful opportunity. ”

"Short selling?"

"Yes, it's about shorting BP oil shares!" Tang Bao affirmed Yang Yang's answer, although he has injected two billion US dollars into BP Petroleum and became a shareholder. But this will not affect Tang Bao to short sell the shares of BP Oil, he buys preferred shares, whether the company's earnings are good or bad, and the dividends are fixed. Therefore, as long as he ensures that BP Petroleum is not dragged down, he does not mind taking advantage of the fire to rob.

Let's be honest.

According to the capital injection agreement reached by Tang Bao and Peter, the share price of BP Oil fell in the United Kingdom. Getting into trouble, it's good for him......

Only when BP Petroleum encounters endless trouble, Tang Bao will have more opportunities to take advantage of the void!

But.

It all had to be done quietly. If Peter had known that Tang Bao had secretly shorted BP's shares, he would have strongly accused him, and might even have offended all the shareholders and management of BP...... In that case, if he wants to join the board of directors of BP Petroleum in the future, he may be resisted. In addition, his short selling may also attract a regulatory investigation, although he did not use any inside information. But he is indeed a shareholder in BP Oil, and regulators have reason to suspect that he is using inside information. Profiteering from the financial markets. Once the regulatory authorities are eyeing it, it's really troublesome.

So.

This time it's something that can be done, I can't say. Sneak into the village, don't shoot a gun......

"Hmm...... I've summoned you here, and I'm sure you'll be able to guess why. In this operation, I don't want to get involved with Phoenix Investment Group, and I don't want to expose it. So you must be careful when entering the market this time, don't show your feet and be suspicious. Tang Bao emphasized.

"Understood, boss."

Everyone agreed in unison. Everyone is not stupid, Tang Bao deliberately transferred them out of the Phoenix Investment Group, and they were closed here, naturally he wanted to keep them secret.

"Okay, if there is no doubt, everyone will rest first, recuperate, and wait for my order!"

After saying that, Tang Bao stood up directly, and he walked straight into his room. His custom-built Bingui trading room is extremely spacious, with a separate bedroom for resting. Other bathrooms, toilets and other facilities are also available, and there are staff outside to provide 24-hour room service. Therefore, even after being closed for a period of time, except for the limited range of activity space and some stuffiness, the quality of life is not bad.

Of course.

It's not like the kind of free life in the outside world.

……

The next morning, Tang Bao woke up very early and got up before six o'clock.

And then.

Tang Bao sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, thinking about his next move. Yang Yang and the others also got up one after another, gathered together, and ate breakfast.

Everyone talked and laughed, and they were all very relaxed.

"Uh-huh...... Before the market opens, I would like to emphasize a few more points. First, pay attention to secrecy, we just need to follow behind and add fuel to the fire, don't be a bird, attract the attention of those who are interested. Second, it doesn't matter how much profit you make, the key is to try to suppress the stock price of BP Oil without exposing yourself, and make money in a secondary position. Finally, BP Oil's share price is now about fifty dollars per share. I'm expecting it to fall below $40 and slowly buy the stock below that! ”

Tang Bao stuffed a small slice of bread into his mouth and emphasized to everyone.

This. He prepared 200 trading accounts in advance, each of which had 10 million US dollars, a total of 2 billion US dollars, and divided them equally, and Yang Yang and the other five people each controlled 40 accounts.

"Huh?"

Yang Yang raised his head and looked at Tang Bao suspiciously, and asked, "Boss, you want to suppress the stock price of BP Petroleum in the United Kingdom." And then take the opportunity to acquire? ”

Then.

Yang Yang and the others had some doubts in their hearts.

"Huh. BP Petroleum is so easy to acquire, I'm just taking advantage of the trend. I will not hide it from you. Not long ago, I injected two billion dollars into BP Oil. Tang Bao said with a smile, and at the same time said the matter of investing in BP Petroleum Company in the United Kingdom.

Yes.

Hearing Tang Bao's words, Yang Yang and the others were stunned for a moment. I was puzzled...... Now that the bosses have become shareholders of BP Oil, why do they still want to suppress their own companies, isn't it that they can't get along with themselves.

Could it be that my ears are hallucinating?

"Huh. You need not doubt it! I did inject two billion dollars into BP Oil, but I was put on a tight spell......"

"Huh?"

Everyone was confused, including Yang Yang, who didn't understand what the "Tightening Mantra" meant. Although Yang Yang is a native of Hong Kong, he has lived in the United States almost since he was a child and has little knowledge of Chinese culture. So he didn't understand the meaning of the "Tightening Mantra" either.

Seeing that everyone was staring at each other, they were confused.

Tang Bao immediately realized that these foreigners might not have understood. He further explained: "The two billion dollar capital injection is all preferred stock, and there is no right to join the board of directors. There are even many harsh conditions attached to it...... I just want this to happen. These restrictions can be eliminated in advance. Hmph, let BP take the initiative to come and lift these shackles! ”

Tang Bao said.

Yang Yang and the others immediately understood.

"The boss's equity investment is restricted by BP Oil, and he hopes to suppress BP Oil through operations in the stock market, so that the other party is in a predicament and has no ability to continue to maintain a tough ......"

Nine o'clock in the morning. The exchange opens on time!

"Boss?"

Yang Yang and the others sat in front of the computer, ready to go. Waiting for Tang Bao's instructions.

Staring at the screen.

BP shares opened at $51.39, a slight increase of 2.03% compared to yesterday's close. The stock price is still relatively stable, but the trading volume is very low.

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.

BP Oil has only a few hundred shares on the stock market, and most of the prices are at $51.

But.

It seems that many investors still have some confidence in BP oil shares, and even if the Kuwait Investment Authority pauses its holdings, it is not in a hurry to leave the market.

Maybe......

We are still waiting for the Kuwait Investment Authority to restart its increase in holdings.

Seeing that the stock price of BP Petroleum Company in the United Kingdom was still stable at about $51, Tang Bao frowned slightly, and decisively gave an order: "Small-scale positioning, warm up ......"

The words are not finished.

Suddenly, there was an accident.

Suddenly, there were three sell orders for 100,000 shares in the market, and then there were sell orders like a tide, 10,000 shares, 20,000 shares, 13,000 shares, and 8,000 shares...... BP oil stocks, which have been quiet since the market opened, suddenly attracted a wave of selling without warning!

Belch.

Tang Bao was also stunned, originally he wanted to carry out a small-scale short-selling operation to break this pool of stagnant water, but he still made a move, and it broke out.

Just a few breaths in time.

There were as many as nearly one million sell orders in the market, and it was good that everyone had not overreacted before, and the stock price could barely remain stable, but so many sell orders emerged, even if it was not clear what happened to the accident, some scattered investors also followed the trend in panic to sell stocks......

The share price of BP Petroleum is falling rapidly.

$51.2.

$51.07.

$51.01.

$50.95.

$50.87.
