U.S. time, 10:30 in the morning, Wall Street Journal!

With a glass of hot milk in his hand and a piece of hot dog in his mouth, Havers Venn was stopped by his men as soon as he stepped through the door of the newspaper office.

"Mr. Wayne, big news!"

A beautiful female assistant who graduated from the Finance Department of New York University's Stern School of Business hurriedly walked up to Havers Venn with an extremely strange look on her face.

"Oh? What's the big news, Flora?"

After biting down the hot dog in one bite, Havers Wein looked up and looked at his female assistant curiously. Flora shrugged: "Just now, we found out about the institution that shorted ADM and Bunge!"

"Oh? Who is it?"

"KPCB or Berkshire Hathaway?"

There was a solemn look on Wayne's face. The Wall Street Journal had been keeping an eye on this investment institution that shorted ADM and Bunge, the world's two largest grain merchants, for a long time.

But after confirming with several investment institutions on Wall Street that hold two stocks, they refused to name the institution.

As if full of taboos.

There was no other way, so Wayne had to ask his assistant to keep an eye on the matter.

203 He was talking about KPCB and Berkshire Hathaway, two of the most famous investment institutions in the world.

Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers is the largest venture fund investment company in the United States. It mainly undertakes the investment business of major prestigious schools. Of course, it also occasionally shorts some stocks; not to mention Berkshire Hathaway, which is an investment by the stock god Buffett. company.

Both companies are known around the world for short selling and stock profits.

"Sorry, Mr. Wayne, none of them!"

The female assistant shook her head, sighed and said, "This time, we all made a mistake!"

"No wonder those guys refused to name this organization, because...it's really a bit embarrassing!"

When the female assistant said this, her face was actually full of surprise.

"Oh? It's a small investment institution we've never heard of...?"

Havers Venn understood somewhat, and he invited his female assistant to his editor-in-chief's office.

Editor-in-Chief of the Wall Street Journal, this is Havers Venn’s identity.

As the editor-in-chief of one of the most famous financial (ceai) newspapers in the world, Havers Wien may seem a bit unkempt, but the influence of this newspaper is not only on Wall Street, but also on the financial system around the world. Takes up a lot of weight.

The Wall Street Journal, founded in 1889, has become the largest paid-circulation financial newspaper in the United States with a circulation of more than 2 million copies.

This newspaper published in New York, USA, focuses on financial news reports, and its content is enough to affect daily international economic activities.

His readers are mainly people in politics, economics, education and medicine, financial tycoons and managers, and investors in the stock market, including 200,000 chairman and general managers.

Most managers of the world's 500 largest companies subscribe to this newspaper.

This shows the influence of the Wall Street Journal.

Therefore, Havers Venn’s editor-in-chief status is indeed not low.

But in the past few days, he didn't even find out about the institutions that shorted the two major grain merchants. This made him quite puzzled, which also led to him being particularly concerned about this matter.

"Yes, it is a fairly unknown investment company, and it is not from the United States!"

After the female assistant walked into the editor-in-chief's office, she couldn't wait to say: "Just an hour ago, a fund company from Huaxia Xiangjiang redeemed the short-selling stocks of ADM and Bunge that it purchased before to several Wall Street investors. institutions, a total profit of 2.008 billion US dollars!"

“It’s quite an astonishing amount, and it only took less than a month!”

"Such an amount and time are enough to be called a classic case of short selling!"

The female assistant spoke eloquently, and Havers Wein suddenly stood up from where he had just sat down: "Hua Hua Xia Fund Company?"

"From Xiangjiang?"

Havers Venn confirmed again in disbelief.

Because in his concept, only Americans harvest the leeks in the world. How can there be any reason for the Chinese to harvest the leeks of their own Americans?

This is not scientific at all!

"I have checked. This company has just been registered in Xiangjiang. It should be for this short-selling transaction. Its actual registered address is in mainland China, and the person in charge of the company graduated from the Harvard Department of Finance in our country. !”

"What an amazing piece of work..."

The female assistant said with some admiration, but Havers Venn took a deep breath: "A fund company in mainland China actually shorted two major grain merchants and made a profit of US$2 billion.

...

“It’s incredible!”

"This matter must be reported in the newspaper!"

Havers Venn raised his head, and the female assistant smiled slightly: "I have asked the editorial department to write this press release!"

"This is a really outstanding short-selling operation, including two major grain merchants!"

"Moreover, Huaxia Soybean's counterattack this time was quite timely. Is there some connection between this?"

The female assistant said there, and Havers Venn smiled: "This is no longer important. A fund company in mainland China shorted two major grain merchants. This incident itself is legendary. To be honest, I really want to Let’s see how those guys who call themselves Wall Street financial geniuses will react after seeing this news!”

"More than 20 days, 2 billion US dollars... hahaha!"

Havers Venn couldn't help laughing. Such news is destined to become a hot spot.

"Flora, I want to see this news on the front page of tomorrow's daily newspaper!"

"clear!"

Flora's female assistant nodded obediently, and then saw that Havers Venn had no instructions, so she hurriedly retreated.

Havers Venn stared at the back of the female assistant with satisfaction, but a trace of thought appeared on his face: "I hope those guys don't steal the news from me!"

The guys he mentioned were several commercial newspapers published by the United States to the world at that time.

Among them, "Forbes", "Fortune" and "Business Week" are the most popular.

The Wall Street Journal has the advantage of publishing every day, while the other three publish magazines twice a week.

In terms of efficiency, it may be much slower. .
