After interrupting his assistant's chatter with a wave of his hand, Greenington shouted excitedly: "Breakthrough! Breakdown! Oh my god, it plummeted 50 points at once! 7351 points! What happened!?"
The Dow Jones Index fell 50 points at 13:20:06 pm on September 23, 2001, U.S. time, creating history.
This is the largest single index drop in history. According to the wealth of the Dow Jones Index, these 50 points have wiped out a total of 89 billion US dollars in the United States! "Who the hell can tell me what happened!"
In the Quantum Fund's trading center, Rogers stared at the data of the Dow Jones Index being slashed by 50 points with blood-red eyes, feeling his scalp numb.
He understands what this 50-point drop means!
Now that the situation is so stalemate, this 50-point drop means the complete loss of the 7,400-point defense line, and also means that panic selling is inevitable.
However, all this was almost impossible to achieve based on the budget he and his team had previously budgeted for the simulation.
"To drop the current Dow Jones Index by 50 points at once, you need at least 200 billion in funds. Li Jin even pawned his own underwear and didn't even have that much money. Who can tell me what happened!"
Under great shock and dismay, Rogers completely abandoned his previous gentleness, confidence and calmness.
At this moment, he was like a male lion who went out hunting, but instead of eating the easily available prey, he returned to his den and found that all his lionesses had been destroyed by the prey.
Both face and dignity were completely lost.
If Rogers is like this, the rest of his team is even more confused.
Everyone couldn't believe it, what was happening in front of them was so magical.
No one dared to speak out, and they didn't know what was going on. Naturally, they didn't dare to attract Rogers' attention, lest they be treated as a punching bag.
Under such silence, panic selling occurred, and the Dow Jones dropped another 30 points!
7321 points!
Rogers took a deep breath and felt his chest tightening, and he could hardly stand still.
"Old man, you've lost your mind."
A hand patted Rogers' shoulder. He turned his head and saw the burly Soros.
Rogers' face was so dark that he could almost drip with water.
"Impossible!" Rogers roared through gritted teeth, as if he was a coward unwilling to admit his failure.
Soros shook his head, motioned to his men to pull up the data, pointed at the screen and said, "Maybe this can give you the answer."
Rogers looked up, was silent for a long time, and screamed: "How is it possible!? How could retail investors lose so much money!? What are these idiots thinking!?"
"What they are thinking about is how to avoid saving their own funds in this battle of the century. When buying any stock involves the risk of being smashed, the only choice they can make is to sell, then withdraw their capital and wait and see."
Soros stared at the screen with his wise eyes like a hawk and said.
"And all of this only happened after Souying joined. Now we understand why Li Jin was so bold and deliberately provoked Souying when facing us."
"We thought we had killed Li Jin, but Li Jin had killed retail investors."
Rogers staggered and turned pale.
"No matter how big the funds, no matter how big the investment, the game of capital, in the final analysis, is still a game of people's hearts. In the first game of this game, old man, you lost to Li Jin."
Soros' words made Rogers almost breathless.
Rogers looked at the screen, the Dow Jones index was blood red, and the bleak blood red signifying the decline was everywhere.
The shocking red color, like blood, stung Rogers unable to open his eyes.
"But, if this happens, Li Jin's own funds will collapse, and he is risking his own life to bring down the Dow Jones Index? What's the point?" Rogers murmured.
