On this day, August 20th, all traders at Thunderbird Company have received the news that their big boss’s actions are about to begin in the next few days.

After the boss came, to be honest, everyone was a little confused. Therefore, Jin Xiaoqiang entered the company through a secret passage and did not show up in front of many ordinary employees. Therefore, except for the traders who came to Tianchao, these old Americans

We still don’t know who the real big boss of the company is, except of course a few senior executives.

And even if they vaguely knew that the boss of the company was Jin Xiaoqiang, they didn't care too much. Decades of international dominance have also cultivated the mentality of Americans.

Although Jin Xiaoqiang has made great achievements in the automotive field, these proud Americans still don't pay much attention to him. After all, they are separated by mountains and rivers. They don't care who you are. In their eyes, they are the only Americans.

, playing finance is the smartest thing.

Several senior executives of the company also expressed that they did not understand Jin Xiaoqiang's silence for five consecutive days after he came to the company. After all, he had only given away tens of millions to them to operate in the capital market.

This time the big boss showed up in person, they thought the boss would make some big move, but Jin Xiaoqiang's silence for five days in a row really left them confused.

Today was a good day. The big boss's sudden action suddenly made them excited.

As soon as the major stock market index futures markets in the United States opened in the morning, Jin Xiaoqiang gave me clear instructions to buy long oil and release the long orders to me.

We have a solid foundation, so feel free to place long orders with me. It doesn't matter how high the price is, as long as it is within the step-by-step price control range, that is enough.

To be honest, Jin Xiaoqiang's order made many of his employees look down upon him, and some even began to criticize the boss as a fool.

The most exaggerated thing is that some people have even decided to report their resignation tonight, because now in their eyes, their boss is simply a fool.

Some time ago, when the U.S. war in Iraq was in full swing, the price of international crude oil had reached over $74 a barrel on the U.S. Securities Exchange.

However, as the US military captured Baghdad and Saddam fled, and Iraq's securities were completely overturned, economists from all walks of life became optimistic about the situation in Iraq. Everyone believed that with the strong entry of US military into Baghdad, Saddam was overthrown.

regime, the situation in Iraq is gradually calming down, oil production capacity is gradually recovering, and international oil prices will begin to fall.

Driven by this mentality, the price of international crude oil has indeed begun to fall in response.

Especially in recent times, Iraq has begun to announce that it will form a democratically elected government. The domestic situation is getting better day by day, and international oil prices have also fallen sharply.

The price of international crude oil has also started to stumble from a high of more than 70 US dollars in March and April. By August now, it has dropped to 67 US dollars a barrel.

Moreover, according to the judgments and predictions of senior market analysts, international crude oil prices will continue to fall, and may even drop to the pre-war levels of more than 40 US dollars per barrel. It is only a matter of time.

In addition, the economic index of the United States was performing well at this time, and other countries in the world that participated in the Iraq War also received war dividends. The economic performance of the world's major powers is experiencing strong growth, so although demand has not decreased,

As oil supply increases, oil prices will return to a rational price range.

Judging from the recent trend, the price of oil is going through a process of decline and adjustment. As for the long-term trend, we also need to look at China’s economic growth data and oil import data at the end of this year, as well as the United States’ attitude towards China.

.

As a result, entering the market now to speculate on oil and go long in oil, in the eyes of many knowledgeable people, is simply the act of a lunatic.

After receiving Jin Xiaoqiang's order, Brian even thought that his boss was crazy?

Huang Guotao also expressed his disbelief, but Barbara did not express her opinion. The only person who fully supported Jin Xiaoqiang was Alice.

She started working with Jin Xiaoqiang, when Jin Xiaoqiang made waves in the Hong Kong stock market, and then experienced the experience of speculating on Shancheng beer in China, so she can be said to be absolutely unconditional about Jin Xiaoqiang's trading style.

of trust.

After receiving the order, Brian even wanted to come over and discuss with Jin Xiaoqiang and explain the current international situation to him, but before he could speak, he was pushed back by Jin Xiaoqiang.

"You don't need to doubt my instructions, just follow them!"

Brian could only return to his office filled with grief and indignation, and gave instructions to his men to go long in oil, step by step, and place orders outside as much as possible.

The traders below, after receiving the order, could only strictly implement the order.

And when Thunderbird Company placed a large number of long orders in the market, countless sharks immediately swarmed up and wiped out all their long orders.

In the eyes of many sharks, these people who place long orders are simply fools, and they are simply giving money to the big guys!

In today's world, there are not many fools like this. If you give money to everyone in vain, if you don't accept it, won't you be punished by God?

The first batch of long orders written were quickly swept away. Jin Xiaoqiang didn't pay much attention to it and directly gave Brian an order to continue placing multiple orders for me. We have enough bullets!

Brian didn't know if the boss was crazy, but he had no choice. He was just a wage earner. He could do whatever the boss said. Anyway, as long as he didn't default on his wages, he would be fine.

Immediately, more than 3,000 more long orders were placed on the market, and then continued to be swept away by the predators who heard about it.

In the afternoon of that day, due to market expectations and consumer psychology, the price of oil on the U.S. futures exchange dropped by another 50 cents a barrel. Thunderbird lost 300 million that day.

Jin Xiaoqiang didn't care. Early the next morning, he continued to write a large number of long orders, and the price of crude oil dropped by another dime a barrel that day.

On this day, Thunderbird Company lost more than 100 million again. After these two days, the people in the company have somewhat understood that this boss is a fool. It seems that everyone should ask for their own blessings!

It won't be long before this fool loses all the last dime in his pocket. Everyone should go online to find a job as soon as possible.

Jin Xiaoqiang didn't care what these people thought. On the third day, he asked Brian and others to continue to write long orders in the market. On this day, the price of international crude oil was still around the 66 US dollars, and was constantly fluctuating.

On this day, they lost tens of millions more inside and outside. Brian and other senior executives were already turning green, but no one knew how to stop Jin Xiaoqiang from such crazy behavior.

And that night, Jin Xiaoqiang had been paying attention to the weather forecasts of major American news channels. Finally, at about 8 o'clock in the evening, from the weather forecast of the American National TV Station, he saw the ocean in the southeastern part of the Bahamas.

, this year’s No. 12 low pressure has formed a tropical storm.

The National Hurricane Center in the United States also issued a warning for this tropical storm and reminded people in several states along the southeastern coast of the United States to be prepared for this hurricane.

The southeastern coastal areas of the United States are hit by hurricanes almost every year. To be honest, the people there and people in other parts of the United States are accustomed to such situations, and not many people take it to heart.

Before this tropical storm reached the United States, the financial market in the United States was still in a state of joy and tranquility. No one would have thought that this hurricane would bring them catastrophic consequences two days later.

Heavy damage.

Early on the morning of the 24th, Jin Xiaoqiang directly issued an order, telling me to continue to be long in oil, and sell as much as I want. Brian and his traders have become numb to this prodigal boss in the past two days, as long as he can still pay.

It's up to him to do whatever he wants with his salary. It's all his own money anyway. If he's willing to throw the money into the water, then everyone can help listen!

On this day, Thunderbird released almost tens of thousands of long orders, and Jin Xiaoqiang's two billion yuan in funds had been almost half used up.

However, on the night of the 24th, the U.S. National Hurricane Center once again issued a warning and sounded a red alert, because according to their monitoring, yesterday's low pressure had already strengthened into a tropical storm this morning and was on its way to becoming a tropical storm.

It is heading towards Florida quickly and is expected to make landfall in Florida tomorrow evening.

At this time, the traders who were forced to stay in the company to work overtime all day already understood the boss's intentions. Where is Florida and where is Louisiana?

Where is the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, the most important oil production center in the United States...

Early the next morning, when Jin Xiaoqiang issued a long order again, no one in the company could resist Jin Xiaoqiang's order anymore. Everyone knew that this time they would probably make a fortune.

This group of Americans even gritted their teeth and stared at Hurricane Katrina landing in the United States, and then severely damaging Louisiana and Mississippi!

They don't care about the life and death of those southern guys in those states. In their view, as long as this tropical storm hits the Gulf of Mexico and causes the U.S. oil center to shut down production, it means that each of them will get something.

A huge red envelope!

Brian and the others were even more excited. On this day, they worked hard to make waves in the market. At this time, some other predators also smelled the conspiracy. Combined with the influence of Hurricane Katrina,

Upon arrival, everyone immediately understood the intentions of the Thunderbird Company. The romantic couple had made a huge gamble before!

So now that everyone has taken the bait, what should we do? If Katrina severely damages the oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico, it is obvious that everyone will lose their butts. What should we do now?

Hurry up and do long hedging! So that day, the U.S. futures market was in chaos, with long orders from major banks, institutions, and venture capital companies everywhere...
