Chapter 501: game in game

  Chapter 501 Game in Game

  After investing in a few more funds specializing in real estate bonds, Zhong Shi got up and left the small ballroom, politely declined the invitation to continue to attend the reception, and returned to Hu Ping's temporarily rented office.

  Even though it was already night, most of the traders hadn't left yet. They were talking loudly while eating junk puffed food, and they were all extremely excited.

After several months of planning, their group of "stragglers" finally succeeded in sniping the positions of the Evergreen Fund. Although it seems that irresistible factors have caused the market to plummet, who would attribute these things to What about luck?

   "What is the situation, why is there a sharp drop in the natural gas market today?"

As soon as he entered the door, Zhong Shi looked at this group of people who were almost unrestrained, and was also infected by their joy from the heart. After greeting them one by one with a smile, he pulled Hu Ping aside and asked solemnly .

   "Mr. Zhong, look at this!"

  In the face of huge interests, Hu Ping couldn't maintain a rational heart. After winking at Zhong Shi, he took a thick magazine and put it in front of Zhong Shi with a bang.

After glancing at the other party suspiciously, Zhong Shi took the magazine, briefly flipped through a few pages, and suddenly realized the expression on his face, "This report caused today's big drop? Nuan Dong, so it is like this! "

"No, no, no, these are all appearances." Hu Ping straightened his face and said seriously, "Actually, don't you think this article is very problematic? Just from the perspective of time, there is no problem, and the weather model has nothing problem, but the article in this issue mentions 'warm winter'."

   "What do you mean?" Zhong Shi's heart sank slightly, and he vaguely thought of something.

After Hu Ping looked around and made sure that his words would not be heard by others, he lowered his voice and said, "According to the information I know from friends at the Meteorological Bureau, in fact, this weather model was put into operation three months ago. It’s in the process of detection, but it hasn’t been made public. It’s reasonable to say that it’s only made public when the time is ripe, but I always feel that there should be some conspiracy behind it, otherwise it would never be such a coincidence.”

"Someone is manipulating the disclosure of information behind the scenes, waiting for the right time?" Zhong Shi pondered for a while before asking in puzzlement, "If this is the case, then doesn't it mean that they are aware of the strategy and position of not withering flowers?" You know that you have been plotting to snipe each other in the market, but because of timing and other reasons, you didn't act in advance?"

   "Yes, I think so too!"

Hu Ping stroked his hair, and his expression became a little horrified, "I used to besiege the positions of the non-withered flowers in September and October, but they were directly defeated by a hurricane news. I thought it was the non-withered flowers fund. This news was released, but now it seems that there may be another black hand behind it."

   "His purpose is to make Bond Hunter bigger and bigger, so big that even he himself can't control the position, and then wipe out the other party in one fell swoop?"

  As for the conspiracies and tricks in the financial market, Zhong Shi is naturally a master. However, if we speculate according to Hu Ping's logic, if a large number of hedge funds such as Muyan Fund collapsed before, and there was another expert behind them, I am afraid that the whole thing will become completely different. Although Zhong Shi has more or less participated in manipulating the market, he has never thought about it, and naturally he will not do it. In order to obtain the greatest possible benefits, in the process of luring the other party into a dead end step by step, some people even did not hesitate to initiate a shuffling behavior, throwing certain institutions out like cannon fodder.

   Such strategies and scheming are really scary.

  Of course, there must be prerequisites for doing so. For example, in a market with a high entry threshold, the participation of funds is not too much, at least compared to other markets. In addition, he must strictly control the sources of news that affect an important factor in the market, and so on.

   "According to your analysis, who is the other party?"

  Zhong Shi thought over and over again, but he didn't have the slightest clue about the identity of the other party. After all, he didn't have enough knowledge of this market, let alone those predators who basically wouldn't easily surface.

"John Arnold, he should be one of them, other people, Ackerman may also be one of them, and Chicago's Beekman, maybe he is also involved. But I'm not sure, they Among them, Arnold's suspicion is the biggest, after all, his fund focuses on the natural gas market."

Hu Ping tilted his head and thought for a long time. After chanting the names of a few people, he suddenly screamed, and his face changed a little, "I called John before, trying to lure him into the battle group with psychological tactics. But if What I analyzed is true, the other party has long been eyeing the words that don't wither, then..."

Having said that, he didn't dare to go any further, because he suddenly realized that he may have played the role of the mother rock fund unintentionally, and he might have been washed out of the market by the other party, but because of some unreasonable He knew the reason, so he survived by luck.

"That's not necessarily true. The Bureau of Meteorology doesn't dare to hide the truth and change the warm winter to cold winter. At most, it's just delaying the release time." Zhong Shi already understood a little bit, smiled slightly, and said nonchalantly, "Maybe they borrowed We don't have enough guts and financial resources to fight against the flowers, so let us charge forward, and they will quietly shoot sniper in the back."

   "It was after seeing that we were in a life-and-death fight with Bumeihua that they released this news in a timely manner, because they felt that the time to close the net had come, which led to today's huge drop."

Hu Ping turned his head and thought for a while, and he also felt that what Zhong Shi said was reasonable, but the next moment he continued to ask: "If it goes on like this, will they spread the news of the huge loss of the Huahua Fund's position at this time? Taking advantage of the opportunity to mobilize the entire market to attack their natural gas positions? You know, in this case, the destructive power of rumors to the Evergreen Fund is as huge as a nuclear bomb.”

"Probably not. After all, the never-withered flowers haven't really hurt the bones yet." After Zhong Shi thought about it, he categorically denied his prediction, but then he said with certainty, "If the other party really wants to If the part of the position that does not wither flowers is destroyed, there will definitely be further actions, let's wait and see!"

  Hu Ping nodded silently.

  …

On September 15th, affected by the violent shock the day before, the price of natural gas futures rose slightly today, and John Arnold did not wantonly intervene in the market. After all, all his goals have been achieved so far, and he just suppressed it when he felt bad. After a while, I quickly stopped, and because the news of the warm winter came out, even if the bulls wanted to do something in recent months, it was unlikely. Therefore, the price of natural gas in September was finally fixed at $4.98 on this day, which was slightly higher than the opening price by 0.06. , an increase of 2.05%.

However, in the far month, the price difference between March and April next year will further narrow, and it will shrink by another 0.3 US dollars, which means that the position of the Everlasting Flower Fund has lost at least 300 million US dollars, and the two days have added up to more than 1 billion US dollars. His wealth was wiped out.

  In the early morning of the 16th, before the sky was completely brightened, many cars drove into Greenwich one after another. This is not a big place, and it is usually difficult to see so many vehicles at this time. The destination of these vehicles is naturally the office building of the Flower Fund. After receiving the call from the Never Withered Flower Fund to sell its investment portfolio, the investment banks on Wall Street dispatched the most astute and capable analysts to evaluate and measure the value of the Ever Flower Fund's investment portfolio.

  Although the other party didn't reveal anything on the phone, Wall Street analysts still don't understand that the Evergreen Fund must be in trouble.

   "Jerry Rice, this is Shaw Kenny, an analyst at Goodman's commodities department."

Nick personally received these shrewd and capable traders at the door, including Goodman, Stanley, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, JP Securities and many other Wall Street giants and some funds have sent their representatives to discuss the trade within these two days. Come up with a plan that can help the No Withered Flower Fund inject a cash flow while driving down the price.

  The office area of ​​the Everlasting Flower Fund is located in a five-story building in the town of Greenwich. There are not many high-rise buildings here, so it is very suitable for people to live in. The population of this city is only about 60,000, but it is a well-known wealthy city on the east coast. In addition to the hedge fund elites that can be seen everywhere, many CEOs and management managers of large companies choose to settle here. The quiet and suitable The environment prevents the invasion of high-rise buildings.

Greenwich Avenue in the city center is considered the busiest street. Most hedge fund offices are set up on both sides of this street, and the vast open space behind it becomes a place for them to gather, barbecue or even park on weekdays. It's basically empty. But today, the parking lot of the Everlasting Flower Fund is densely packed with all kinds of cars, and some even parked in the parking lot next door.

Two handsome young analysts walked over with big strides, nodded towards Nick, extended their hands to shake each other, took out their ID cards to show Nick, and then said quickly: "We need information on capital allocation. , of course, the more detailed the better, so that we can give a price as soon as possible.”

   "Okay, no problem!" Nick nodded, motioning for a follower to lead them into the meeting room.

The round table-shaped conference room is already full of analysts from all over the world. They are gathering together and discussing the asset portfolio at hand. Some of these asset portfolios are natural gas positions, and some are stock portfolios. Another part is the bond portfolio. Now the Everlasting Flower Fund doesn't care so much, as long as it can raise funds as soon as possible, even if the portfolio can be profitable again in the long run, it will be sold at this time.

  Once they enter the working state, these analysts are so devoted that they basically don't even have time to eat. And they are also very clear that there is not much time left for them, so the originally bright and clean meeting room soon became messy, and various food and drink packages, materials, etc. began to be thrown away randomly, among which Including some cigarette butts.

  Amidst the smog, Nick's eyes slowly narrowed. He had a feeling that his fund might be able to get out of this crisis.

  After discussing for a whole day, some people left in the end, some people stayed, and those who stayed will continue to negotiate with the Flower Never Withered Fund.

   "We are very interested in the position of the natural gas contract, but it is for the long contract in March, 40,000 lots of quotations, we give a quotation of 380 million US dollars, what do you think?"

  After discussing for a whole day, Shaw Kenny's face was still radiant, showing no signs of fatigue at all, and the same was true for Jerry Rice beside him.

  Hearing the price, Nick's brows gradually raised. Obviously, he was not satisfied. Because at least so far, although the position in March has suffered a slight loss, the overall value is definitely more than that. He knows very well that the other party is suppressing the price.
