American Fortune Life

"... Hehe, Mr. Buffett and I have no conflicts, let alone a hostile relationship as rumored by the outside world, which is completely nonsense, and I have no enemies along the way, only friends and teachers. Learned a lot from them."

In the already smoky study room, Warren Buffett was smoking a cigar, his bright eyes were slightly squinted, listening to Andy Smith's calm answer on TV, he couldn't help laughing and shaking his head.

"Then what do you think of Mr. Warren Buffett, the 'stock god', bowing his head and admitting his mistake, and solemnly apologized to Berkshire shareholders?"

Hearing the host Matt Lauer's obviously malicious question, Buffett, who had just smoked a cigar, couldn't help coughing, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times with an ugly face, FXXK, you just bowed your head and admitted your mistake, your whole family bowed their heads and admitted their mistake !

"Hehe, I also saw that apology, but the moment I saw the content, his image as an investment master became clearer in my eyes.

The supreme title of "Stock God" does not mean that he is victorious in all battles and never misses. On the contrary, it is the courage to admit mistakes and the wisdom to learn lessons that make Buffett different and create an investment legend. .

Under the cold wave of the financial crisis, Berkshire is not the only company that has missed a moment. However, not all business executives dare to take responsibility and stand up to tell shareholders what went wrong.

In the face of the financial crisis, stock gods are also human, and they will make mistakes like every ordinary investor. However, a real wise man gathers the strength to start again at the place where he falls, so his letter made me see such a possibility. "

Because of the General Electric matter, the two are fighting each other in the air. It is believed by the outside world that he and Warren Buffett have completely fallen out. Andy will naturally not admit it, although the two are not getting along as well as they did at the beginning. , communicate frequently, play golf and so on, besides, the two of them are originally a cooperative relationship rather than a personal friendship.

Besides, the two of them didn't have any real knots that couldn't be solved, and they both left room for each other. Naturally, Andy wouldn't be an idiot to step on a stock god with huge influence.

Hypocrisy?

Perhaps, in the so-called high society in the West, hypocrisy is the passport!

"...When the stock market fell sharply in a row and I was worried about the future, I would recall the fact that there were 40 stock market crashes in the past to calm my fearful heart. I told myself that the stock market The sharp drop is actually a good thing, and it gives us another good opportunity to buy those excellent company stocks at very low prices."

"Failure is the beginning of progress to a higher position,

I can say that my status today is that I climbed up the spiral ladder of failure and rose from failure.

I learned the factors of success from the experience of failure, and used means that I never thought of to start a new business. So I would say that failure is a good thing as long as it doesn't become a habit. . . "

"When you see a red flag, don't argue with it, run away! After a few days, if everything looks good, come back. This way, you'll save a lot of trouble, and you'll save a lot of money..."

"...Trade rationally, don't be dominated by panic, recognize the stocks in your hands, believe in yourself, and make the right choice.

Plunges often bring about panic. In a panic, it is difficult to make the right choice, cut the meat out of the trap, or wait for the rebound? At this time, investors should think calmly.

I know that in the face of tragic market conditions, we will panic and feel helpless. However, life will go on and we must stay calm. Although the stock market is bleak, the future must be bright! "

"Today will be cruel, tomorrow will be crueler, and the day after tomorrow will be beautiful, but most people will die tomorrow night!"

"You are poor because you have no ambition. If you want to succeed, you have to be crazy. People still have dreams. What if they come true?"

And some of Andy's Chicken Soup for the Soul quickly became popular videos on the Internet with the editing of some talented people.

However, what everyone didn’t realize was that the panic caused by the endless fall of the US stock market has quietly faded away. Perhaps it was diverted attention, and perhaps Andy’s views really played a role.

When the interview was over, the phone calls between Andy and Ivana almost exploded, and all their relatives and friends called to inquire. . . As for what to ask, it is naturally how sure Andy is that the US stock market will rebound.

When they saw the article published in the newspaper before, these relatives and friends might think that it was Andy writing the article to echo the president’s support for the city, and there was some unknown purpose, but when Andy sat in front of the camera, it was another time It's over, they all understand what kind of personality Andy is, and they will never mess around with his own reputation. Thinking about Andy's ability to make money, how can they still sit still, calling one by one, hoping to kiss him I heard Andy's answer.

Andy and Ivana looked at each other and smiled wryly. Andy took the mobile phone that Ivana was about to pick up again, strode into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, put the mobile phone in a plastic bag and threw it in, and closed the refrigerator door— - The whole world is quiet!

Monday, March 9th.

It was originally an ordinary working day, but since waking up in the morning, people all over the United States seem to be a little absent-minded. The breakfast table reading the newspaper is also quieter than usual. The office was originally chatting on Monday. Lost in the mood, he stared at the watch and the clock with flickering eyes.

Various economic experts and scholars gather together to discuss and predict before the market opens.

Almost the whole of the United States is paying attention to the stock market on Monday. Regardless of whether Andy Smith’s predictions come true, the people in the United States are most concerned about whether Andy Smith is just talking but not practicing, and they are all waiting for the market to open. Andy Smith's feat of buying bottom US stocks!

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the closer it was to 9:30, the faster everyone's heartbeat became. At this moment, people regardless of whether they have funds in the stock market or not, are all betting on the U.S. stocks that are about to open.

"clatter!"

As soon as 9:30 arrived, the numbers on the US stock pre-buy list began to jump, and it was red!

At this moment, everyone's expectations turned into disappointment. The traders in the New York Stock Exchange looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed softly, and the audience in front of the TV also laughed and shook their heads, and stopped paying attention. In the studios of various TV stations, experts and scholars also began to chatter. discussed.

It plummeted at the opening, another Black Monday!

In the Oval Office of the White House at this moment, Ao Guanhai looked disappointed, and asked with a dignified expression: "Andy Smith's funds?"

"No change," says an economic adviser, eyes glued to his laptop, shaking his head.

Ao Guanhai frowned, sighed softly, muttered something, and shook his head. "Keep watching, and tell me immediately if there is any change."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out of the room, came to the Oval Office, saw the cabinet members represented by Secretary of State Xi Po, Okuan Kai nodded, and began to listen to the briefing.

In the study room of the fairy tale mansion, the corners of Andy's mouth turned up, and he leaned lazily on the boss's chair. Through the monitor, he watched the U.S. stock market plummeting on the LCD display wall of Liberty City Investment Company, without saying a word.

Ivana, who was sitting next to him, looked a little pale, and her worried eyes alternated back and forth between Andy's face and the screen of the monitor from time to time. She didn't expect that the U.S. stock market would start to plummet as soon as the market opened, and she was completely beating her own man. Face.

"Boss, the S\u0026P 500 is about to hit a low of 666..."

"Snapped!"

Andy clapped his hands, his eyes were shining brightly, and he ordered without hesitation: "Start! Let's end this darkest moment and kick off the bull market with our own hands!"
