0188 BLACK OCTOBER
"Evan recently got a new girlfriend, I've met that girl, it's not the same as before, she's like a 'nerd', I won't object to it this time!"
The investor standing next to the phone was saying to his wife something very common, "We should focus on our little candy and not let her become the type we don't like......"
He had been talking to his wife about some ordinary, family-to-family things, and his voice was very gentle.
His wife, though she did not understand why her husband, who had always shown impatience with her and the two children, suddenly changed his attitude and began to care about their lives and the family, but she felt that this was a good thing.
God has said that if someone suddenly recognizes and begins to correct the mistakes of the past, then he is a good person.
It's too much to be a bad guy for a minute, but it's not too early to be a good guy.
His wife listened to him and finally told him that she had prepared a sumptuous dinner waiting for him, with steaks, chicken steaks, some fruit, and so on.
The investors didn't say anything, just said goodbye to each other and hung up the phone, then lit a cigarette and walked towards the roof.
After a long staircase and corridor, as he walked through the dark corridor to the roof of the light-filled Eko Exchange Building, the open view made him feel a sense of relief.
There was even a moment when he didn't want to die.
Yes, he's here to jump.
But he quickly convinced himself, lit another cigarette, and as he walked towards the side of the building, he said, "No going back!"
There is no going back, but an ordinary sentence has cut off his hope of continuing to live, as a financial investor, he has the same nature as most financial investors, bold and adventurous.
Make money with your own money, and it is difficult to earn more money than the principal in a day, which is a threshold and an upper limit.
But if he leverages the leverage, he can earn more money than his own principal in a few minutes.
And what he does is still futures contracts, and if you want to play, you can play big, which is almost the craziest idea in the minds of all financial investors.
Many people will hide this idea in their hearts and never let it go, because they know very well that they are not sure whether this thought will lead to construction or destruction.
However, the federal financial market has been climbing for six years in a row, and every stock is rising, but it is rising more and less, and almost everyone is making money except for a very few unlucky people who will buy some stocks that are falling, or stocks that are not going up very much.
When the friends around him used the noose to wrap their necks to win a better return, when all the friends around him used the noose to put their necks around them to make themselves stand taller, he was also tempted.
From 10 times, 50 times, 100 times, to the current 200 times futures contracts, the huge inertia accumulated by the continuous snowball makes people unable to stop and cannot go back.
The one more than half a month ago made all his years of hard work come to naught, and this time, he was directly sentenced to death.
Walking to the edge of the roof and sitting down, he glanced down, and the dizziness made him nauseous, and he wanted to vomit, and there was also the fear of death at work.
The last time he thought about whether he could solve these problems without dying, and then it took him almost less than a second for him to tell himself that it was impossible.
Tens of millions of debts are enough to weigh him down, his family, and his children will be out of breath for the rest of their lives, and they may be pressed to the bottom of society forever because of these debts, because their creditors are banks.
Now the only way is suicide, and suicide solves these problems.
The funds he applied for from the bank were used for financial investment, that is, leveraged funds, which were only used for his personal investment, and his family did not enjoy the benefits brought by this money, and naturally did not need to bear the corresponding consequences.
The lawyer would help them get rid of these problems, and in order to prevent his wife and children from knowing what to do, he also wrote a will, wrapped it in waterproof gloves and put it in his jacket pocket.
At this time, he took a cigarette in his mouth and looked up at the sky, the blue sky seemed to have a magical power that could purify the soul.
He leaned forward slightly, turned in the air, and kept staring at the sky with nostalgia, and he had a feeling that he would melt into this blue sky.
Ten seconds later, with a loud bang, a life left this world full of dirt and sin, and also broke through the most fragile defense line in people's hearts!
The big three trading houses and investors learned about it at the same time, and then the panic selling, which had just been halted by the president's speech, reappeared, and this time it was clear that some of them were doing it on purpose.
You must know that the contract period means that this thing can not only buy up, but also buy down.
Some institutions began to short in the open, and some investors quickly closed their positions and turned around, and a disaster turned from despair to another kind of bloody plunder!
Under the trend of multiple forces, the line of defense was broken through.
Half an hour later, the Presidential Office again issued a formal presidential decree calling for the closure of trading again, and the three major exchanges immediately respected Mr. President's wishes and stopped public trading.
But this can't stop after-hours trading, even if people can't see the price of the tumbling change on the billboard, people are still frantically getting rid of it, trading, and matching.
The whole street is crazy!
The next day, Tuesday, and the last day of October, the price of all stocks shrank by at least 30% at the moment of opening, and more than 20 stocks were delisted because the price was below the minimum holding price.
At a second-floor café on Financial Street, Lynch and Vera briefly draw their eyes to a corpse on the sidewalk across the road.
Vera quickly twisted her face to look elsewhere, this was the fourth jumping incident they had witnessed, and the street was already crazy!
There were only two guests in the entire café, and it was as if it had been filled by two people.
"I'm a little uncomfortable, I need a little time to process ......," Vera looked down at the coffee and snacks in front of her, she was actually thinking of her and Gap's investments.
They also invested in a lot of stocks, and they have continued to invest in them all these years, and the tragic situation here makes her feel suffocated by someone's neck.
The stocks have always been operated by Gap, Ristoan is a public company, and he is a financial monitor, and he has access to some inside information.
He would only tell Vera how much money they had made, but he never said if they had leveraged it, and Vera felt that she had to ask about it, and she wanted to make a phone call under the pretext that she was not feeling well.
Lynch bowed slightly, Vera picked up her handbag and left quickly, so fast that her shoes almost couldn't keep up with her, and it looked like her ankle was hurting, but she still didn't stop, and disappeared from Lynch's sight.
Lynch picked up his coffee and looked at the desperate people outside the arena, when suddenly something flashed in front of his eyes, and then there was a loud "bang" under his feet, and some blood actually sprayed onto the glass on the second floor under the huge pressure difference.
The viscous blood slowly flowed down the glass, and Lynch poked his head out to look at the sidewalk, and there was another creature with a slight twitch.
His mood has not changed much, and he also knows very well that all the people who jump off the building are gamblers in nature.
They used bank loans to invest, companies to invest, and even leveraged hundreds of times the leverage to invest.
In the face of the stock market crash, there was not even a chance to force liquidation, and countless indices were missed.
They are gambling, betting on winning hundreds of times the return, and losing the bet is just a life.
Before today, people might not care about ten or five dollars, but after today, even one dollar is considered good.
Lynch needed a local to help him, and he immediately thought of Joe Greenman.
He's sure to have good friends in Boupayne, and of course Director Johnson can, after all, now that the financial tsunami is coming, everyone's life is not good, and he can't afford to support two families unless Lynch gives him some help.
It is the duty of friends to help each other, and there is no reason why only Lynch helps him, and there is no reason why he should do nothing.
Just as she was thinking about something, Vera came back from the bathroom, her expression soothed a little, and although her brows were slightly twisted together every time she walked, she could see that she was in a little better condition now than before.
Vera breathed a sigh of relief to receive an affirmative answer from Gap that they had not used loans or leverage on their investments, and that their savings were able to meet their investment behavior.
Although the loss this time is more serious, at least they will not be saddled with debts that they will not be able to pay off in their lifetime.
The two sat for a while, admiring the cruel stunt show on the street for a while, and Vera soon became a little numb and uncomfortable.
Because there were too many, in the more than half an hour that the two of them were sitting, they witnessed at least seven jumping incidents, and the whole city was surrounded by various sirens and people jumping off the building everywhere.
"It's so miserable!", the woman is emotional after all, she couldn't help but sigh.
Lynch nodded, "This is actually a man-made disaster...... Vera on the other side became curious, but Lynch didn't intend to say more on this issue, he turned his words and looked at Vera's ankle, which was already a little red and swollen, "Maybe we have something else more important than this." ”
He left the chair, half-squatted, patted his thigh, and looked at Vera with a smile, "Here, let me see your ankles!"
Suddenly, Vera's face turned red as if she had just drunk a large glass of spirits!
