Life at The Top novel Chapter 1521

“14 billion US Dollars.

“This year, in the global GDP ranking, at 40th place is Lion City, which had a GDP of 92.2 billion US Dollars. After conversion, the 14 billion US Dollars would be equivalent to the total social wealth produced by the people of the country in one month.”

In the meeting room, Jasper looked at Lord Alvarado and Kayden on the screen and smiled. The three of them glanced at each other, their expressions very relaxed.

Lord Alvarado yawned and said, “Well, even if it’s such a huge number, why don’t I feel anything after throwing it away?”

“What an arrogant poser.”

Next to Jasper, Henry complained.

Lord Alvarado laughed.

Todd and Dean sat in the corner silently.

This was the place where the three big shots talked. Henry was qualified to talk to them because of his special status, but they were different.

If you spoke without thinking in inappropriate situations, you would be scolded for being insensible.

“Now that we’ve made our move, we’ll see what Quantum Fund will do,” Kayden said.

“They are moving right now.”

The three of them received this news at the same time.

Jasper immediately looked at the trading screen.

“They’re contesting us. Even the amount of money they invested is similar. We invested 14 billion US Dollars and they invested 14.2 billion. Are they so desperate to fight us head-on?”

Lord Alvarado’s voice was transmitted to Jasper and Kayden’s ears simultaneously via the online call. Then, they fell into a brief moment of silence.

Everyone was waiting for Jasper’s decision.

After all, they came to an agreement that this time Jasper was the final decision maker. It did not matter what their statuses were, at this moment and in this matter, they had to listen to Jasper.

This was also the basis of everyone’s cooperation. Jasper did not hesitate for too long. He soon asserted, “It’s not time for a real fight yet. Otherwise, they would go directly into the sectors we are shorting and fight with us. Let’s continue testing the waters.

“Regardless of the amount of capital invested by either us or Quantum Fund, we cannot possibly exceed the size of the market itself. You have to keep in mind that the Dow Jones Index is worth tens of trillions of dollars.”

“Hence, in any transaction, the biggest dealer is actually the market itself, that is, the tens of thousands of institutions and retail investors operating on their own interests.”

“Now we are trying to get as many retail investors and institutions as possible to follow suit. This really depends on who has the most courage,” Jasper said, narrowing his eyes.

There were dozens of people in the trading center of Nauritus City, dozens of people in Harbor city, and less than 20 people in Waterhoof City.

All of them were silent as they waited for Jasper’s final decision.

“Go short.”

Jasper’s eyes calmly watched the massive amount of data being refreshed every second on the screen.

“Layman Investment Bank, Colossal Investments and Mayland Investment Bank!”

“These three investment banks are the benchmark stocks in the banking sector of the Dow Jones Index, and they are also the three largest capital giants on Wall Street. They are our enemies. Take them down first.”

“At least bring each of these three banks down by 5 percentage points.”
