After Divorce, I Can Hear the Future-Chapter 950: HSBC Dumping Shares
"Is there any truth to the article?"
"Who can give an accurate answer?"
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night; everyone is using their networks to try and get a definite answer.
After all, a public safety incident is not like a natural disaster, it won’t just play out in one place once it occurs. Moreover, disease is impartial to everyone; it doesn’t care about your power or wealth.
Even Lu Liang received quite a few inquiry calls, but since he promised Wu Han’s leader, his response to everyone was the same: "Don’t believe rumors, don’t spread rumors, wait and see."
The phone kept ringing intermittently until three o’clock in the morning.
Lu Liang put away his phone, left his study, holding a thermos cup, and went to the courtyard outside.
He had no desire to sleep, looking up at the starless night sky: "The thief calls to catch the thief, but it might not be a bad thing."
Because the leaders at the incident location didn’t understand the seriousness, they still wanted to hide it, still wanted to solve the incident alone.
But the sudden exposure by foreign media ruined their plans; now the incident site has become the focus of the nation and even the world, making it impossible to contain the spread of news.
"They’re anxious, committing a good deed with bad intentions."
Gret is too eager to prove himself, far less experienced than Su Shimin.
Lu Liang picked up his tablet, logged into the broker app, and opened the Golden Dragon Index representing Chinese concept stocks.
As of this moment, the decline has reached -22.29%, with the total market value evaporating by more than 142 billion US dollars.
Countless retail investors and speculative funds were hit hard, crying out in despair, as most of them had chased the highs just last week.
What’s more, compared to the near-collapse of the Golden Dragon Index, the three major US stock indices showed explosive upward trends.
Although Gret was anxious and exposed the news to the media, it did not affect the success of his plan.
First, he profited heavily from short selling Chinese concept stocks, then exposed the news, causing a large influx of funds into US stocks for safety, and thus the stocks they held rose, allowing them to profit again.
He handed in an almost perfect answer sheet.
As expected, there should be nothing more about Su Shimin in the future, and he can peacefully recuperate at home and live out his remaining life.
"Keep rising, the more it rises now, the more enjoyable it will be to cut later."
Lu Liang squinted, contemplating in his mind how to maximize benefits next.
After all, with four circuit breakers, if handled properly, Tianxing Finance can definitely narrow the gap with the old financial conglomerates, or even surpass them.
However, choosing to cooperate with JPMorgan Chase is not stable, because in addition to cooperating, we still have to guard against them, to prevent being quietly backstabbed.
"Must there be fighting and killing, can we not govern together?"
Lu Liang felt a sense of melancholy and sighed helplessly.
Making each other imaginary enemies, occasionally confronting each other, fighting without breaking, will definitely make the internal team more cohesive.
But even if he is willing, Damon might not be.
After all, if Lu Liang dared to say this in front of him, he’d definitely get sprayed with spit.
Because, from his perspective, Lu Liang is the newcomer.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of grass being trampled behind him; Lu Liang turned his head, smiled, and asked, "Xiao Jun asleep?"
He saw Wang Chuting wearing a purple silk-like dress; although she had given birth, she maintained her figure well, making the nightgown look like a cheongsam.
"Caused a fuss for a while, but ate something and fell asleep." She sat next to Lu Liang, leaning on his shoulder.
"How credible is that article?" Wang Chuting had a feeling that Lu Liang seemed to know everything in advance.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have told her to come to Xiangjiang with her mom at the beginning of the year, and kept a medical team at home long-term.
"Aside from some deliberately guided topics, the rest is basically true." Lu Liang told her honestly, not hiding anything.
Wang Chuting remained silent for a long time, and couldn’t help but ask, "Will it escalate to something very serious?"
"Perhaps."
Lu Liang sighed, holding Wang Chuting’s shoulders: "Tell our mom not to go out for a short time, just walk Xiao Jun around the house every day. The supplies needed for life will be disinfected by someone and delivered on time."
Wang Chuting nodded, hugging Lu Liang tighter; she had a premonition that this situation would be unprecedentedly severe.
Because she understands him more than Lu Liang himself, she can confirm that Lu Liang knows something, but even he can’t guarantee anything, which is enough to show the severity of this incident.
Three and a half hours later, it was dawn.
Morning news broadcast, rarely using a live format.
The spokesperson informed the nation, announcing the establishment of an investigation team and a health team overnight, and worked with multiple departments to travel to the incident location for investigation, advising local residents not to go out unnecessarily and to wait for the latest progress of the inspection.
Six and a half hours later, A-shares and Hong Kong stocks opened simultaneously, with both markets opening sharply lower, at -3.26% and -3.18%, respectively.
A large number of retail investors fled in panic, but before they could even lament, the national team, led by pensions, entered the market to stabilize it.
The troika of securities, insurance, and banks soared together,
Accompanied by new energy, semiconductors, and pharmaceutical stocks,
With each major sector, showing low openings but high climbs.
"Confidence is more precious than gold."
Lu Liang immediately called Zhang Jing, who manages public funds, reserving 3% of funds, and fully deploying the remaining 97%.
It’s time for them to fulfill their duty.
A-shares must not collapse like the Golden Dragon Index, otherwise, it will only bring pain to those close to them and joy to their foes.
At the same time, Lu Liang also contacted Wen Chao to mobilize large funds to provide safe passage for the Hong Kong stock market.
As an open market for international exposure, particularly with guiding Chinese concept stocks to return, it’s more vulnerable to being targeted by international capital under such circumstances.
At three in the afternoon, A-shares closed, strongly reversing the trend, the index closed at 2850.24 points, with a daily increase of +0.87%.
On the other side, the Hong Kong stock market also presented a thriving scene, with the index at 27025 points, a daily increase of +1.25%.
Hong Kong stock trading times are longer than A-shares, except on the eve of holidays when transactions end at noon, otherwise generally not closing until 4 in the afternoon.
It’s 3:20 in the afternoon, twelve hours have passed since foreign media exposure. It’s also been over eight hours since the investigation team entered the incident site.
At this moment, the State Council held a press conference to inform the nation, announcing the progress of the incident investigation...
"They’ve already determined the nature of it."
"Isn’t that a bit hasty? It’s only been 12 hours, what could they have found?"
"School suspension, work from home as much as possible, check all factories, is this not making a mountain out of a molehill?"
"This generation of netizens is really hard to please, when foreign media exposed it, they said it was ignored, now they say it’s overreacting."
As soon as the investigation was disclosed, it sparked widespread debate online because it was directly classified as a public safety incident, and it didn’t rule out being caused by consuming certain organisms, although tracing is still ongoing. This almost indirectly confirmed that the contents of the article were entirely true.
"Going with the flow, a helpless choice as well."
Lu Liang sighed, he had been collecting information all along, and now he can reconstruct the entire event completely.
Laboratory leak, soldiers maintaining order, accidentally infected, participating in a sports event, bringing the disease to East Country.
If Lu Liang can trace it, let alone the nation, they can only be clearer about the ins and outs of the whole matter.
But so what?
In the end, it’s the lack of strength to break ties completely, so they can only temporarily shift the responsibility elsewhere, waiting to settle scores later.
However, as the incident was being determined, a large quantity of chips suddenly appeared in the Hong Kong stock market, currently in the trading session.
The market was unable to react; the absorption capacity was insufficient, and the trend took a sharp downturn, with the Hang Seng Index suddenly free-falling.
"Where did they get the chips?"
Upon hearing the news, Lu Liang rushed to the trading room; Wen Chao’s face was gloomy, saying, "It must be the short-selling chips provided by HSBC."
Currently, there are only three major forces that can influence the market: first is Bank of China, second is them, and third is HSBC.
Today, Bank of China invested 50 billion yuan in the A-share market and nearly 35 billion Hong Kong dollars in the Hong Kong stock market; it’s absolutely impossible that they would sell off at the last moment.
As for themselves, no need to say more, so the only institution capable of supplying such a large amount of chips is HSBC.
