The Son of Finance of the Great Age

Chapter 434: can't breathe

  Chapter 434 Can't swallow

   "Did you see it? Did you see it? Is this the news you were waiting for?"

In the middle of the night, in the dead of night, everyone was sleeping soundly. At this moment, the phone in Zhong Shi’s room rang loudly. The sleepy Zhong Shi muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, turned on the desk lamp, and checked the time. It was three o’clock in the middle of the night. After picking up the phone next to the bed, before he could say his greeting, he heard a machine-gun-like questioning sound from the microphone.

"Cen Sheng, what time is it? You got up so early? What's the news? I don't know anything!" Zhong Shi regained his composure, and when he heard that the person questioning on the other end was Cen Yinquan, he couldn't help but wryly smiled. He complained a few words.

"It's already 6500 o'clock, how can I, the Financial Secretary, sleep?" Cen Yinquan on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, but after hearing Zhong Shi's vague words, he suddenly felt helpless, "Zhong Sheng, Don’t you know? Soros published an article in the Wall Street Journal, directly targeting Russia, and European and American stock markets fell because of his statement. After dawn, Hong Kong stocks will be under pressure again!”

"Is it finally here?" Zhong Shi murmured to himself, and immediately woke up from his hazy state. After a jolt, he quickly turned over and said with great excitement, "It's here! Finally coming!"

  Because of being so excited, even his voice trembled subconsciously.

"It's coming? What's coming?" Cen Yinquan didn't react for a while, and still complained to himself, "The news analyzed by the Financial Management Bureau is that the worst market has yet to come... Wait, wait, this... Is this the important information you said?"

"That's right!" Zhong Shi hurriedly replied while putting on his clothes, "The opportunity for the Jedi to fight back has finally come! The signal I've been waiting for has finally come. From tomorrow, no, from today, we can openly report to the international community. The speculators have declared war!"

"What?" Cen Yinquan was astonished, and he didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he sighed and said heavily, "Zhong Sheng, now I believe in your financial resources, and I also believe in your determination and ability. But do you really know what the news released by Soros means to the international financial market?"

   Regarding the expectation of the imminent depreciation of the ruble, there was a certain consensus in the market a few months ago, and it was once widely spread. However, after Russia received the IMF's financial rescue, this news has largely become a rumor, and the original expectation has become a far-fetched fallacy.

However, it is an iron fact that Russia’s fiscal revenue is in crisis. The decline in taxation still causes panic among foreign investors. Foreign capital in Russia continues to flow out. The outflow of capital has brought great pressure to the stability of the ruble's currency value. But now, as Soros, who is currently the most prestigious in the international financial market, raised his arms, it seemed to be a step forward for the ruble market, which was already on the edge of a cliff.

   It is predictable that when the Moscow stock market opens, it will inevitably fall because of Soros' remarks. More importantly, Soros' remarks will inevitably exacerbate the loss of confidence of foreign investors in Russia, because they are well aware of the power of this financial giant's statement. With the loss of confidence, more dollars are fleeing. This situation will in turn affect the stability of the ruble currency value, and it has simply become an endless loop. And when the outflow of US dollar capital reaches a certain level, in order to deal with this situation, maybe Moscow really has a way to depreciate.

This is not the most serious thing. Due to the recession of the Russian economy, inflation remains high. Once the value of the ruble is released, in order to cope with foreign debts, the current situation will frantically start the machine for printing rubles. Inflation will be based on the current situation. It will increase further, and inflation will rapidly consume people's wealth, leading to people's livelihood and social unrest.

  Then here comes the problem. Russia is not an unknown small country. Its predecessor was the Soviet Union, which had contended with the United States for nearly half a century. It once had the largest nuclear arsenal in the world. Even now, the number of nuclear weapons in its arsenal is enough to destroy the earth dozens of times. What about these nuclear weapons if there is a whole social unrest?

   This is the focus issue that the international world is most concerned about!

"Of course I know!" At this time, Zhong Shi had finished dressing, "Don't worry, neither the United States nor Europe will allow these nuclear weapons to circulate. I believe they should have enough judgment on the current situation. There should be corresponding measures to deal with it. Let’s pay attention to the current situation in Hong Kong. Today I am going to make a big attack. No matter what the price is, I will support the Hang Seng Index!"

"At the same time, I'm going to release the news of the Hong Kong government's rescue of the market. I hope you will fully cooperate to withstand the pressure of international public opinion and not let the truth leak out prematurely. This is part of our deal, Director Cen, please! "

   "No problem!" Cen Yinquan nodded emphatically, and solemnly promised, "In addition, if the funds are insufficient, please tell us as soon as possible. The HKMA has also prepared a large amount of funds and is ready to enter the market at any time to rescue the market."

"They? Let's take care of the Hong Kong dollar market first!" Regarding his statement, Zhong Shi laughed, "They will definitely intensify their attacks tonight. As long as the stability of the Hong Kong dollar market is guaranteed, the stock and futures markets will be fine." It won't be a problem anymore."

   Now that things are going on, how can Zhong Shi allow the money from the HKMA to get involved? You must know that these stocks bought at low prices will be sure to make profits after the limelight passes. Under such circumstances, how could he be willing to get a piece of the action?

  …

"Today we only do one thing, which is to buy!" After discussing with Ma Jiarui and Ren Ruowei for a whole morning, after everyone was in place, Zhong Shi loudly announced today's trading strategy, "All stocks in the index Buy them all, focusing on those stocks that can affect the Hong Kong stock index the most, especially HSBC Holdings!"

   "Target price? Fund amount?" The traders quickly said two key data. Although they have all heard about Soros's article, Zhong Shi's decision to let go of his hands and feet still boosted their confidence. Most importantly, Zhong Shi also told them that when the market closes today, there will be news that will strongly boost the market, and it can even be said to completely reverse the situation.

   Thanks to book friend Xing Xiyuelang for voting for the monthly ticket! Now I am busy in the hospital again, I am sorry that I did not have time to finish this chapter today, everyone will read it first, and I will continue to write next time when I find time...
