Chapter 177: I want to learn how to trade stocks

In fact, the reasons why U.S. banks have plummeted, and they have not eased up in the big bull market in the past two years, is complicated.

First of all, although the Bank of America is called Bank of America, the actual controlling person is the founder and majority shareholder of the Bank of Italy, Amadi Giannini.

In the United States during this period, the banks were basically local, and there were almost no chain banks throughout the country, while Giannini's Italian bank was opened in almost all major cities in the United States, which caused Wall Street to be dissatisfied, so he began to suppress him, especially after he bought the Bank of San Francisco in May last year, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York took him to court in the name of a monopoly.

Then Wall Street teams began to walk around the stock market with all kinds of negative news about the Bank of Italy, and frantically sold the shares of the Bank of Italy, which led to the collapse of the Bank of Italy's stock price in June last year.

To add insult to injury, at the end of June, the court found Giannini guilty of monopoly and ordered him to sell his 51 percent stake in the Bank of Italy.

Fortunately, Giannini was extremely cunning, claiming to obey the court decision, while hiding in Italy to delay the stake delivery, and on the other hand, he sent people to Delaware, Delaware, to establish a Pan American limited company, and controlled the Bank of Italy to inject huge funds into the company, and in turn bought most of his shares.

Not only that, but the joint-stock company has also taken advantage of the low share prices of Bank of Italy and its holding banks to buy shares in the past year, becoming the second largest shareholder of the Bank of Italy's holding banks after Giannini. (Actually, Giannini's life is very legendary, you can check it out if you are interested.) )

Of course, these are just backgrounds, and what really made Monet make a judgment was that today Albert inadvertently mentioned to himself that William Lalimo, Andrew Mellon's nephew and one of the heads of the Mellon Group, will have a very important negotiation with Giannini in the next few days.

Although it is impossible for Monet and Albert to know the specific content of the negotiations, Monet analyzes that since Gianniniken is willing to negotiate with Wall Street, he must be prepared, and when Wall Street no longer suppresses it, the stock price of the Bank of Italy and the Bank of America controlled by it will definitely skyrocket, but he can't tell Doris for this reason, otherwise it will be tantamount to betraying Albert.

A few days later, the New York Times broke the news that Amadi Giannini had reached an agreement with the Morgan consortium to sell up to 7.3 percent of the shares of the Bank of Italy to the Morgan consortium at $116.37 per share.

On Friday, the stock price of Bank of Italy on the New York Stock Exchange climbed sharply, soaring 17 points in just two hours, while the shares of banks controlled by Bank of Italy also soared. Among them, Bank of America's stock price rose by $14.71 in the morning, rising to $95.33 per share.

However, to Monet's regret, the biggest increase was actually the previous fuse - the Bank of San Francisco, whose stock price rose directly from more than 50 to 87.33, nearly 30 US dollars per share!

Just when Monet regretted that he only bought Bank of America but not Bank of San Francisco, Doris's phone suddenly called, crying to him: "Tony, I regret not listening to you to buy Bank of America, I didn't expect it to rise so much, next time there is such news, you must tell me, no matter which one you let me buy, I will not hesitate!" ”

Monet nodded and agreed: "I will definitely tell you when I have the chance, but this kind of news is not always such a good luck!" ”

Doris immediately grasped the point: "Wait a minute, Tony, you knew about Bank of America in advance?" ”

Because everything has passed, Monet doesn't care: "Yes, Albert told me in advance that Mr. Lalimo will talk to Giannini recently, although he doesn't know the content of the talks, but I dare to guess it!" ”

For Monet's explanation, Doris is very recognized, because he knows that although Albert is idle all day long, he is also a member of the Mellon family, and Monet is his teacher, so it is normal to have news about this, as for why Monet doesn't tell him everything, this is normal, after all, he is not close to him, and people can tell him in advance, they are already very particular, how can they tell you everything?

Because Monet didn't put too much thought into stocks, he just brainstormed while reading the newspaper and occasionally thought about it when listening to friends, so he didn't operate stocks at all for the next period of time, and naturally there was no news to Doris.

But what Monet didn't expect was that Doris misunderstood, she thought that Monet didn't want to get rich with herself, and then she thought about it, in fact, this is normal, because people have told you about three stocks, and you are already a good friend, so you can't let people be your free trader all the time, right?

So Doris began to think about how to get Monet to help her? It's certainly unrealistic to throw money at him, he has a lot more money than he does, so he can only rely on his own advantages......

So on this day, Doris asked to meet Monet under the pretext that he had a friend whose identity needed to be kept secret and asked him to a secret place of his own, and Monet was not suspicious of this, because Doris, a courtesan, was originally a wide range of friends, and it was normal for someone to want to meet herself through her channels, just like when she wanted to meet Madeleine, didn't she pass through her.

But after arriving at Doris's secret house, Monet was a little surprised, because it was very beautifully arranged here, and it didn't look like a place to meet guests at all, and secondly, he didn't see the mysterious guest, so Monet asked, "Doris, what about the friend you are talking about?" ”

Doris poured Monet a glass of wine unhurriedly, handed it to him, and said, "Don't worry, you have a glass of wine first, flip through the magazine, and I'll go downstairs to meet her, and then bring her up." ”

Monet had no choice but to sit down to drink and read magazines, but then he found that something was wrong, because the magazines here were actually similar to the style of "Playboy", and after drinking this glass of wine, he felt a force rushing into the lower abdomen, and at this time Doris suddenly walked in wearing a sexy pajamas with long legs, although Monet had known her for more than ten years, but it was really the first time to see her wearing this kind of clothes that perfectly showed her figure and skin, so she was a little stunned for a while......
