From the Singapore Nikkei 225 futures contract market in December '89 to the corresponding markets in January, February and other months in '90, the funds of each side amounting to tens of billions of dollars were waged at every price.

This is a war about the fortunes of the country, and the winner will rule the Shijie economy, and the loser will be sent to hell.

Neither side realized at this time that this was a war that would determine the direction of the Shijie economy, or at least where the future Shijie economic center would be.

Western countries have paid enough attention to the rapidly growing Japanese market. Major financial institutions in Shijie have opened branches in Tokyo, and some of them have even surpassed the head office.

Even in later generations, when the Japanese stock market fell below 10,000 points, the vast majority of companies singled out Japan as an important region. For example, in the future, when China's economy maintained rapid growth all year round, and even surpassed Japan in GDP to become the second largest in Shijie, most of these large companies would set up an Asia-Pacific headquarters in a city in the mainland, but this Asia-Pacific region does not include Japan.

Many large companies have branches in China first, then Greater China (including Hong Kong, Taiwan, etc.), and then Asia-Pacific (Southeast Asia), but even in terms of radiation range, it generally does not include Japan.

The importance of the Japanese market is evident!

The United States has always been vigilant about Japan, after all, this country is the only country that has hit the United States mainland, and when it came to the capture of the Japanese archipelago, the Japanese bushido spirit and terrifying jade crushing tactics caused heavy losses to the American army.

Ordinary people may not remember it very well, but politicians who are always in control of their national interests will not forget that they are always knocking on Japan and cannot let it get out of control.

Wall Street, which has close ties to Washington, understands this, and therefore acts as a thug in every crackdown.

This is by no means sensational, in fact about the little-known economic wars are breaking out all the time.

To tell a real example, in 06 years, in order to dismantle Huaxia's heavy industry, Goodman Company bribed relevant personnel with the intention of acquiring a certain Huaxia Heavy Machinery Company, and then spun it off and sold it. However, with the help of some knowledgeable people, this conspiracy deal was finally aborted.

Under this seemingly peaceful shijie, there are countless undercurrents and whirlpools, most of which cannot be publicized to others, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.

Just like the bubble in the stock market, the Japanese official has always had a relatively ambiguous attitude, and it seems that it does not intervene too much in the market, but who knows that it will be behind the scenes with the United States, ready to burst this bubble!

In addition to the tremendous pressure from the United States, they are also very confident in their ability to influence the market, and feel that they can control the situation even after the bubble bursts. It's just that they don't know that the fate of seeking skin with the tiger is to be gnawed away.

To get back to the point, after the Japanese funds were aligned, they were transferred to Kaoru Iwamoto's books the next day, and the subordinates of several agents also gathered together to obey Kaoru Iwamoto's orders.

After the funds were gathered, it was really different from the previous battles, and in the three main contracts of the last three months from November, there were opponents of comparable scale, and the amount of funds was staggering.

Both sides have invested more than $5 billion in the three-month contract, and they both realize that it is impossible to knock each other in one step, so they can only stalemate first, and both are waiting for the moment when the other party is insufficient to fund before giving a fatal blow.

Under the influence of both parties, the amount of money bets has also increased, and the contracts for the next two months have also become active.

Of course, there are short-term operation funds for fishing in troubled waters, but more of them are heavy bets after looking at one side.

The Singapore Exchange is most happy to see this, as it charges a lot of fees and reinforces its unshakable influence on the Nikkei.

The reaction to the futures index has already begun to affect the performance of the Japanese stock market, and the confidence of some investors is beginning to waver, but in a frenzied atmosphere, this number is nothing at all.

In this year, the Japanese stock market has crossed 30,000, 32,000, 35,000, 36,000 and other important thresholds, compared with the 21,000 points in the middle of the eight years, it has risen by more than 50%, all of which happened in just one year.

After rushing to 35,000, the Japanese stock market had a very short oscillation period, but it could not stand up to the fanatical investors and huge expectations, and the index began to climb all the way, and finally rushed to 36,000 points in November.

This is not over, the momentum of the rise seems to be endless, after breaking through the historical mark of 36,000, the index is still rising, the momentum is very strong, it seems that breaking through 38,000 is just around the corner.

Most investors are looking forward to breaking through the historical barrier of 40,000 points!

Much to look forward to!

"How is this possible?"

Jim, who was in Kobe, looked at the green line on the screen and suddenly felt that the tie around his neck was like a lifeline, and he was out of breath.

After the first blow to the Japanese market in October, this time he was confident, and although he lost a billion dollars last time, he managed to stop the Japanese stock market from rising further, allowing it to oscillate above 35,000 for a while.

But this time, the funds were gathered far beyond the last time, and more institutions entered the market, and the effect was not as good as the last time. The Japanese market has stubbornly risen and seems to be unconcerned about the Singapore crackdown.

"What do we do now? Now not only the December contract, but also the January and February contracts are in the red, or it won't be long before we have to fill in the funds again! ”

In order to prevent a crash, they used no more than half a billion dollars, and the rest of the money was used as a backup to pay a deposit.

"Gradually clear the December contract, transfer the funds to the January contract, and at the same time slowly absorb the March contract, and act lightly, so that others don't find out that we have a backhand. Let everyone feel that we are fighting Japan to the death in these two months! ”

After thinking for a long time, Jim whispered to Maxim.

"Wait." Jim stopped Maxim, who was about to leave. "The contract in March is long, you do it yourself, absolutely confidential!"

"What? You are crazy? Maxim shouted, but his mouth was quickly covered by Jim.

Regarding the sudden friction between the two, the traders who were busy in their respective areas just glanced at it in surprise, and then went back to their own business.

During this time, despite their full efforts, they lost another $300 million on the December contract, and now all they can do is to use a large number of accounts to liquidate a small number of positions, and not let the bulls find out about their actions.

Once the news of the short retreat leaks out, the market will go crazy, and all the funds will turn to attack the bears, and it will be difficult for them to sell all the short orders in their hands, and if they can't get out, they will only lose more.

So everybody is busy.

"No, I'm not crazy! I'm sober, and if you don't speak loudly, I'll let go of my hand, you know? Jim whispered to Maxim, and when he saw Maxim wink, he let go of his hand.

"You know how much we've lost? The three-month contract adds up to $700 million! Now transfer the funds from December to January, so that we may still be able to compete with each other, otherwise it will be a dead end! ”

"If we don't do more now, we won't be able to last in December, and if we can't complete the tasks assigned above, you and I will inevitably be fired."

"You're fine, it's a big deal to find a new company. As for me, I've put all my money in, not just mine, but also those clients' money, you know? ”

"Now I can still use this local fund to cover up, but if this money can't make money, then my performance will be exposed immediately, as long as an investor asks for redemption, my misappropriation of funds will be immediately exposed!"

"Do you know the consequences of exposure? At least it's a lifetime ban on the market, and maybe I'll be sentenced to prison, but there is a death penalty in Japan! Mark, you're not going to watch me die, are you? Now only you can help me, please! ”

Jim told so many secrets in one breath, and then looked at Maxim with a blank eye, waiting for Zuihou's trial.

After hearing that Jim had embezzled the funds entrusted by the client, Maxim could not hold back, and he even wanted to expose him immediately, which would not be tolerated against business ethics. But when Jim said that there was a death penalty in Japan, Maxim hesitated, he didn't know what the law in Japan was, but if there was a death penalty, Jim would be finished.

After his face changed several times, Maxim gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Rest assured, dear Mark. I will never embarrass you, in fact, I am doing this for the sake of everyone, and the task assigned to me by the above is to teach the Japanese a harsh lesson at Christmas, and I think the United States should also be ready, as long as our side does not lose too ugly. ”

"Uh...... Jim, there's something I want to say to you......"

"What?"

Jim breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Maxim agree, knowing that he had passed the test this time. However, Maxim's face suddenly became very strange, which made a bad feeling rise in his heart.

"It's about the income of your fund, I want 30%! In return for my secrecy, it's a deal, agree or refuse! ”

"What? Thirty percent of the proceeds, no! Mark, you're so greedy, I can only give you 10% at most. Otherwise, you might as well send me to the gallows! ”

"Twenty percent, this is Zuihou's offer!"

"Deal!"

Two broad palms are clenched in it.

"Hey, Mark, you know what? I think it won't be long before you hire a new boss! ”

"I don't care! Who would want to stay in this place full of stinks, gangsters, and some arrogant Brits? After this incident, I will go on a global trip in the future. ”

"Fuck off, you bitch, disappear from my eyes now!"

After the words of trading and threats were spoken, there was no longer a trace of warmth between the two.

(In this part of the Christmas campaign, I really checked a lot of information and spent a lot of time.) To be clear in advance, sometimes the Nikkei Index exceeds 40,000, which refers to the benchmark price in Singapore, and the others are the real Nikkei. ）
