Chapter 15 Waiting for the Dawn

“…… Fack, the Dow is falling back, and I'm just saying you're making a fuss...... Margin call? …… Temporarily hold it in your account...... We'll have to talk about the fees...... Damn, I have a channel in New York, and if you don't want to lower the fee, I'll go to Morgan...... Aristocrat? I'm serving the King of Saudi Arabia, you Yankee know what kind of nobleman, do your job well......"

On Thursday, October 15, New York time, the Dow Jones rebounded and fell after a sharp rise in early trading.

Monte straightened up and tugged at the phone line for a long time before hanging up, turning his head and about to share his joy with the little boss, when he saw Hall and Caroline throw him the back of the head at the same time, and walked into the suite side by side.

Monte really wanted to vent the depression that had accumulated in his heart from the morning to now, and look at Brandon, holding the phone with a serious expression, ready to answer the latest movements in the market.

Look at the team of lawyers, accountants and their peers on the other side, everyone is dressed in suits and leather shoes at a glance to know that they are the elite of the industry, several people occupy the sofa area in the living room, look at him coldly, and whisper a few words to each other from time to time.

"With a defeated face, why do you look at me like this, if it weren't for me...... With Mr. Hall's wise decision, you've packed up your things and headed back to London. Monte sneered to herself.

Inadvertently made eye contact with lawyer Benjamin, who nodded with a smile.

Monte smiled back, "Would you like something, coffee or a shot of whiskey, I'm in for a treat." ”

All eyes of everyone present were on him, and Monte waved his hand: "I said, we just worked together once, and we made a lot of money, can we not be so serious." Okay, I'll admit I was a bit of a rude just now, but you guys also made my hair like a piece of. ”

"I want a hot latte with sugar." A young man who had just done it responded.

Monte smiled and pulled out a pen and paper from his pocket: "As for the other friends, I explained in advance that there are only two options for a shot of whiskey or a cocktail, and I don't want you to get drunk and beat me up."

When this case is done, I'll take you to a bar with only high heels, and you can drink as much as you want, and Mr. Hall, who makes the money, will pay anyway. ”

There were a few laughs in the living room.

Half an hour later, Monte placed the tray with two cups of coffee in front of Brandon, "Don't say I don't take care of you. ”

Brandon thanked him and picked up the tray and walked to the bedroom.

"They seem to get along very well, and we don't need to interfere anymore." Through the crack in the door, Hale saw Monte shuttling around everyone like a butterfly.

Carolyn also saw it: "So that's why you're reluctant to let Benjamin's team take over the operation, even if I've compromised?" ”

"Halfway, Benjamin's team is more professional, but Monte is trying to do well, and I have to reassure him, the responsibility of being a leader." Hall replied.

"Okay, I'll compromise again, Xiao Hugo really has the temperament of a family heir. Seriously, I didn't expect you to have such a high level of control over them. £7,000,000 in exchange for you learning to control your men without losing money. Carolyn's tone was complicated.

Hall smiled, "I don't like the word mastery, it sounds like a medieval plantation master." Let's replace it with management skills, or use a Chinese word - Yuxia. ”

"Is this how you thought about convincing me beforehand?" Caroline asked again.

Hall shook his head: "Actually, I didn't expect Brandon to say such dangerous words, and Monte's reaction was also unexpected by me, he actually dared to yell at you." ”

"These two are a bit capable, not too bad. In the same way, being able means being difficult to control. Caroline took a sip of her coffee, "And how were you going to convince me?" ”

"Splash and roll, I don't believe you will watch me blow up, and then I can't bear the blow and collapse and cry." Hall looked like a scoundrel.

The corners of Caroline's mouth hooked up a helpless smile: "This is also the management ability you learned?" ”

"You watched me grow up year by year." Hall was noncommittal.

Caroline said quietly, "However, you still don't want to let Benjamin's team take over the operation. ”

“……”

Hall had nothing to say, yes, the other half of his reluctance to let Benjamin's team take over the operation was because he didn't trust Caroline, but he didn't want to deceive Caroline.

I understand "it" as a rebellion of a teenager, not from the depths of the heart, which is too hard. Caroline rubbed his hair.

…………

On Friday, October 16, New York time, the Dow Jones index plummeted again, 108 points, -4.6%.

From Wednesday to Friday, the Dow Jones plummeted 262 points, or -10.4%, in three trading days.

Behind the group of cold data is the evaporation of hundreds of millions of dollars out of thin air, at this time most investors smell wrong, Wall Street is about to rain.

On this day, Hall continued to increase positions, positions, and positions, until the risk control mechanism was triggered in the intraday, and Caroline added another 5 million pounds in margin.

200 + 500 + 500, 12 million, Hall pushed this speculation, which lasted for more than half a month, to the sky that he himself had to look up to.

Either the curtain will be called perfectly, or the curtain will be lost.

…………

On Monday, October 19, Asian time, crude oil rose sharply and the stock market dived as the Persian Gulf clashed with Iran.

The neon, red sky, and Tuao markets opened and plummeted one after another, and the New Zealand stock index fell by more than 60% at one point.

At this time, New York was in the middle of the night.

"U.S. stocks are going to collapse." Hall said.

Caroline is powerless to refute this prediction, which was "whimsical" a week ago: "What are your plans for the future?" ”

"Full position, and then watch it plummet, make a profit and leave." The previous series of foreshadowing made Hall not need to do anything now, just wait for the dawn.

Caroline held one hand to her chest, the other to her mouth, and paced back and forth with her teeth and index finger, and said after a long time: "I still have 8 million cash, all at your disposal."

I've got to get back to London, I'll go now, and Benjamin's team will stay to assist you. ”

"Hurricanes have made landfall in London in the past two days, which has killed 18 people." Hall reminded.

"It's okay, the hurricane hasn't already landed, I'm behind its ass." Caroline told a bad joke, "I'll try to convince Helena when I get back, but it shouldn't work." I thought about giving you a stop loss, and the funds that can be withdrawn in the short term are here.

It's a good sign.

Do you predict that this financial risk will not affect the real economy? We need to do something about that. ”

Hall's brain thought quickly: "Let Benjamin's team go back with you, I can handle it myself......"

"No, let Benjamin stay, there are some things Monte can't handle."

Caroline interrupted:

"Assuming that U.S. stocks are really finished, then what is this, systemic risk or technical error?

…… I know what you're thinking, the government and Wall Street don't lose their dignity because of who makes hundreds of millions or billions, after all, as the world's financial center, credibility is important.

But you have to know that individual interests cannot be completely unified with the collective will.

In the event of such an extraordinary financial turmoil, there must always be a result, and although the amount of our funds is insignificant to this financial turmoil, we are well prepared.

Monte has experience in this, and I'll let him and Benjamin deal with that, so you don't have to ask. Go home early after taking profits, and don't worry about me and Helena. ”

Caroline proved that little Hugo was still a child in front of her.

Hall swallowed it all back to his stomach, opened his hand and hugged Caroline: "You don't have to work too hard to go back with my mother, it doesn't matter if you lose some money, just let me hedge my risk." ”
