Morrison said faintly, “How many times did we wrongfully assume that we would be able to completely destroy Jasper in the next moment or if we held on a little longer? What were the results of those situations? He is getting stronger and stronger, and we are getting more and more passive.”
“Have you noticed that at the beginning we were presiding over how to deal with Jasper, but now, my father’s position is no longer guaranteed? Jasper’s opponent is no longer us, but the Federal Reserve, Softwin, Layman, and even the economic system of Sun Dollars. We are nothing more than fodder to him.”
Fabian widened his eyes and said unwillingly, “So you’re giving up?”
“In the capital market, this is called a stop loss. I will still look for opportunities, but when it comes to this hand, even if I don’t fold, it is as good as dead.”
Morrison finished speaking and hung up.
Fabian staggered and fell back into a chair. He was completely lost.
After some time, his phone rang again. Fabian pressed down on the answer button numbly.
“Mr. Atticus, the fund is in a state of emergency. Now, Sun Dollars is still falling, but the rate of decline has slowed. Shorts and longs are fighting fiercely at the current level. If we fall by one more point, we will have to liquidate our positions. Do we… Still have funds to cover the position?”
“Yes, wait for me.”
Fabian hung up the phone and looked at the constantly oscillating candlestick chart on the computer screen grimly.
The current situation was as if the main forces of both sides were fighting each other on an open plain. Blood was spilling everywhere.
At this time, no matter how clever the tactics and skills were, they were no longer useful. The only thing that could really determine the outcome of this battle was the financial strength on either side. Someone’s skills would only make it easier to play the game to the end, but it always the fundamental strength that determined the outcome.
This was why Jasper had never dared to face the United State stock market and Quantum Fund head on.
Fabian was unwilling to give up like this. Hence, he picked up the phone abruptly and dialed a mainland number. The phone was connected within three rings.
