Life at The Top novel Chapter 1389

Right now, the last thing Jasper lacked was money.

The mighty Mr. Laine, who was scared to live in poverty again, had never experienced this feeling for a very long time.

Even as he was making more and more money, his industries were rapidly expanded at the same time.

It was just like when normal people could not understand how those people with hundreds of millions of assets would be able to finish spending their money. However, what they did not know was that the people with hundreds of millions of assets would spend or invest millions of dollars in one go.

Right now, Jasper was easily using a hundred million as his unit of measure.

500 million US Dollars was transferred to his account a minute after he gave his order.

After pulling out of Nasdaq, Jasper set his eyes on international futures.

As international futures were traded, rubber had become an important manufacturing good. Therefore, it naturally became one of the traded goods.

Meanwhile, the Atticus Family was one of the kings of rubber in the Golden Peninsula.

In the context of globalization, the crash of the stock market in the United States influenced the normal operations of the other financial systems too.

For example, the futures market has been greatly disturbed.

The crash over these past few days caused the price of rubber futures to break the barrier of 1200 US Dollars.

Moreover, according to market trends, it could be clearly seen that the Atticus family, whose wealth depended on their rubber industry, had been desperately investing money in an attempt to raise the price of rubber futures.

Jasper did not hesitate. He immediately put 200 million US Dollars into the market and created a short-selling order.

The lukewarm rubber futures started to plummet drastically like a flaming barrel of gasoline after the tiger that was Jasper entered the market.

In every trading situation that followed the market’s natural laws, there would always be dealers present who controlled the market regardless of it was rising or falling.

Today, Jasper was the dealer.

A short sale of 200 million US Dollars immediately made the price of rubber futures plunge.

The unit price of 1200 US Dollars fell to 1150 US Dollars within a few seconds.

When Jasper saw this, he injected another 100 million US Dollars into the market.

The price dropped to 1120 US Dollars.

This scene was directly transmitted to the computers of the countless buyers and sellers of rubber futures around the world.

Hence, countless people began to sell their rubber futures in horror.

They believed that rubber futures were likely to be buried along with the United States stock market. This violent decline caused many people to liquidate their positions.

Similarly, the Atticus family also heard this piece of news.

As one of the main producers of rubber in the world, the Atticus family’s sensitivity to the price of rubber futures was well beyond what one could imagine.

Fabian’s phone rang five minutes after Fabian entered the market.

“Father…”

Fabian held his phone and greeted solemnly.

“It seems that someone is attacking the rubber futures.”

Avoice that sounded as if it had been through the mill came from the other end of the line.

Fabian lifted his eyebrows.

“Is it Jasper?”

Fabian’s father, Sawyer Atticus, said, “You should back off.”

Even though Sawyer did not directly answer Fabian’s question, he had implicitly given him an answer. Fabian was furious after he heard that. He snapped, “Who does Jasper think he is? How can he ask the Atticus family to bow down to him?”

“You fool!”

Sawyer growled.

“Who is Jasper anyway? How can he have the power to shift the price of futures all over the world?”

“However, you have to know what the situation is right now. Something unexpected happened in the United States, and since yesterday, it has caused the United States to lose trillions of dollars.”
