American Fortune Life

Wall Street in Manhattan, New York.

Andy watched that it had completely become the general conference room of the combat headquarters. In front of it was a row of mobile writing pads filled with large data charts, divided into three rows of desks, five people in each row, and one office. A phone on the desk, a computer, a fax machine, a printer.

People coming in and going out are all holding documents in hand, using trot speed, shirts and sleeves rolled up, busy scenes.

Alvitre stood beside Andy and said with a smile: "Boss, it was only thanks to you that you sent all kinds of data to two newspapers. I only thought of using newspaper resources to always get first-hand information. After all, find News, those journalists are the best. Hehe, we even got the news that the two funds under Bear Stearns, the fifth largest investment bank in the United States, suffered serious losses due to subprime mortgage bonds. "

"Banks ... banks." Andy frowned, quickly thinking about all the victims of the financial tsunami caused by the subprime mortgage crisis. Banks are undoubtedly the biggest fats after real estate alone.

Andy picked up a marker on the table next to him, and with the attention of Al and all the think tank members, walked to a blank writing board and wrote down several words in a row.

"Real estate, banking, stock market, oil prices."

Andy closed the pen cover and turned around to look around for a week. He then marked the four words with the marker in his hand and said, "The real estate collapse has begun, followed by the chain reaction brought by the subprime loan. The banking industry will usher in A batch of bankruptcy and bankruptcy, some large banks will shamelessly urge the government to transfusion to save the market. After we have completed the two orders of cds and cdo, we will short the banking industry!

The stock market crash is inevitable, and it may fluctuate with the government's rescue and blood transfusion, but within the next year, I predict that the Dow Jones Index will be cut. All we have to do is continue to be short!

The plunge of the US stock market will inevitably cause a chain reaction of global stock markets, and the financial tsunami that has formed will sweep the world. The domestic crisis and excess liquidity will inevitably be drained by Washington. By then, the world will be overshadowed by the shadow of the subprime crisis. Petroleum dollars, an oil war is inevitable, and the plunge in oil is also a great opportunity for us to short again! "

Everyone looked at that young handsome handsome face shocked and stunned, Nima, this is ruthless, really big short!

"So do n’t just look at real estate information. Banks ca n’t let it go. Believe me, in the next year, banks will no longer be safe. Prepare in advance and make arrangements early! This time the financial crisis It's my opportunity, and it's also your chance. You will take a generous bonus and you can go to all over the world to buy those beautiful houses that are poor but nobody buys! "

When Andy's words fell, it caused everyone's joy and laughter and warm applause. Looking at the excited and joyful expressions, Andy knew that he had mobilized the enthusiasm of everyone. There was nothing to encourage more than a green knife. Persuasive.

Andy did not stay at Gaia Investment Trust for a long time, and after talking with Alvetrie for a while, he went downstairs and went to Liberty City Investment Company because the early layout of the real estate market collapsed and the investment company Here, all the stocks held have been sold out. In addition to the allocation of manpower to keep an eye on CDS junk bonds, the remaining dozen people are shorting US stocks with the 30 million funds sold.

Listening to everyone's report, Andy had a headache looking at the twelve elites in a group. Bardstone kept smiling aside, and seemed to be very happy with his own younger generation of recruiting and training. satisfaction.

"That is to say, you set up a same-day write-off account, financed with 6 times leverage, and used a high turnover rate to hedge selected real estate stocks?"

Everyone heard the inquiries from the young boss and nodded with smiles. Bardstone also laughed: "When they gave the plan to me before, I also felt that the plan was good, so I let them implement it. I didn't expect 3 The stock market plunged on May 13th, so that they caught them, 30 million changed to 50 million, and their courage became bigger and bigger. There were several stocks that let them take advantage of the plunge. Now they have an account. The funds in the bank have reached 67 million US dollars. Recently, many people asked me about them. Someone who had good things also gave them the name "Wall Street Wolf Pup", huh. "

"Oh, it seems that some people are very upset. I happen to spend a lot of money recently, and everyone knows that I just bought Newsweek, so I took away 37 million, and each person received a bonus of 200,000. Sword, left you a principal of 30 million, as long as you have the ability to make money, I will not be stingy! "

"thank you boss……"

"Long live the boss ..."

Twelve young people showed ecstasy. After all, this is a generous bonus. In a year, the newcomers who have not graduated long before can even get a level above the average salary of 670,000 on Wall Street.

Watching them excitedly joked and left the conference room, Andy rushed to Bardstone and laughed: "Don't blame me for taking away the funds. I don't have any money recently. To fund Newsweek, or use my personal account Money, now I have less than 200 million in my account. "

"Oh, almost no one will believe that when you go out, you have a billion-dollar boss, and there are only two million in your personal account." Bardstone also laughed and laughed.

Andy shrugged and said helplessly: "Hey, there are too many places to spend money. You see, I don't even have a private jet, no yacht, what is the youngest billionaire, I must be a fake rich man ..."

Andy's words made Bardstone laugh loudly. For his young boss, Bardstone is more and more admired. There are not many young people who are confused about the wealth they have, and they will not go to many rich people. Children are as fancy as showing off their wealth.

Although the more you show off, the more you say, most of the time, but it's not an empty performance.

What Bardstone appreciates most is the ambition and courage of his young boss. It is not a one-time bet for everyone.

How big is the ambition of the boss? At that meeting, it was generally estimated that the boss might end up with billions of dollars in profits. Not only did he not jump for joy, but he was extremely annoyed. It seemed that billions were too little for him, and he wished that the whale would swallow more profits.

He was a bit grateful for the wise decision he made last year. The previous worries about the possible troubles of working for a young boss in his 20s did not happen. Not only that, but also gave him enough trust. It was extremely precious to Bardstone.

Andy left Liberty City Investment with a substantial private account and came to the New York Observer newspaper. The new daily newspaper World Observer will be listed on the day after tomorrow, April 1, April Fool's Day, and also on the weekend. first issue.

With the slightly tired Pete Kaplan inspecting the newly established daily newspaper, this daily newspaper is not only observing the unrealized wishes of the newspaper for many years, but Andy also holds great expectations for it. His own news website And whether the news gathering of news app can rely on it to complete in the future.

After reading all the contents of the inaugural issue, Andy is still quite satisfied, especially some jokes prepared for April Fool's Day, and also caters to the needs of readers very well, always open each other, your shoe laces are not tied, The stubborn joke of the school holiday is really boring.

The online news on April 1st is difficult to distinguish from true and false, but the news published in the newspaper will not be outrageously difficult to distinguish from true and false. After the "World Observer" newspaper was distributed to various newspapers and sales points, this new newspaper The front page headlines also attracted a lot of attention.

"The financial tsunami after the U.S. real estate bubble burst."

Very frightening title, this April Fool's Day, revealing a layer of weird and strange, is it a joke? mischief? Or title d?
