Life at The Top novel Chapter 1857

Rogers shrugged and said, “Somerland’s

stock market has a 10% limit down, so

you are destined to stop at this step, but

what I am responsible for is different.

“Here, I can bring down any industry in

Somerland, and it’ll only take 1 day.’

On the screen in front of Rogers, the real

time futures trading chart was on display.

If there was an unannounced crash in the

stock market, then the investors would

exclaim that this was Somerland’s first

stock market crash. Yet, the sudden

collapse of the futures market would

make most people realize that foreign

forces were deliberately targeting

Somerland’s economic system.

The former was just the natural law of

economic development. As long as the

development period was long enough, no

country or society could avoid an

economic crises like stock market

crashes, and Somerland was no exception.

However, the latter was the blatant result of financial war.

The kind that would kill people at every turn.

During the Cold War, why did the Red Empire, one of the two figureheads of the world, collapse overnight? The United States did not use a single bullet to make the Red Empire that stood proudly in the east and made the world tremble fall to ruin, all because they started a financial war.

And this time, Wall Street capital directly targeted the domestic futures market. This method was far more terrifying than targeting the stock market.

What were the things that could be listed o In the domestic futures market?

Copper, aluminum, oil, wheat, cotton, white sugar, soybeans, and so on.

A closer look revealed that these goods were either basic materials needed for production and construction , or staple consumables required for daily living.

It could be said that these things were the lifeblood of society, and even the country.

His first reaction was to wonder whether h e was hallucinating or wonder if there was something wrong with the system.

Many people felt the same way as him. After all, such an occurrence was too rare.

All fluctuations in the market required a reason. As the production of raw materials decreased and the demand increased, the price would inevitably increase. These two reasons were the causes for the price increase.

There was a bumper harvest of raw

materials and the demand decreased, so it would inevitably fall. This was the reason for the price drop.

However, was no reason and indicators at

all for the market that currently looked as

if it was on a guillotine.

Thatcher felt his blood go cold in an instant. His first reaction was to look at his backend. The shocking loss figure and the liquidation fund pool that had already shown a balance of zero caused him to lose his breath. Then, he fainted in front o f the computer.

Similar things happened all over the country.

Everyone who dabbled with cotton futures today had witnessed this scene that was destined to be recorded in history.

When this news reached Jasper’s ears, Jasper pulled up the candlestick chart of futures trading. The sky-high selling order that made people’s hearts race pressed the cotton futures price all the way down. The whole process only took more than ten minutes, but the price of cotton futures fell by a full 30%.

“It’s over.”

Jasper only said these two words.
