Just at noon that day, news came out again in Japan that the U.S. Department of Commerce was very sincere in hoping to communicate with the Japanese government on bilateral trade issues, but the Japanese government was reluctant to take a stance on the matter and hold talks immediately.
Some well-known politicians from the opposition party have come forward to accuse the ruling party of disregarding the interests of hundreds of millions of citizens and supporting individual private interests.
The ruling party is required to immediately launch negotiations with the U.S. Department of Commerce to allow more Japanese products to enter the U.S. market.
Naturally, Japan's ruling party would not allow public opinion to continue like this, and they immediately clarified the matter.
The public opinion war in Japan is going on in full swing, with the opposition parties and the ruling party attacking each other, and there is an endless stream of news.
The stock market also looks very strange. The Hang Seng Index fluctuates back and forth around 18,200 points, with neither a big rebound nor a big drop.
In the investment department of Bank of America in Tokyo, the heads of Asia of several American consortiums met here to discuss the actions for the next two days.
This is the first time in the past 20 to 30 years that the Tokyo stock market has made them feel so uncomfortable. In the past, if the stock markets rose in various places, local governments would definitely be happy to hear about it, and major listed companies would try their best to maintain the market value of their own companies.
Japan is doing well this time. It's the complete opposite. In the past, hot money suppressed the local stock market. Now, the local government and companies are suppressing the stock market together. Instead, their hot money has to find ways to protect the market. This is really a weird thing.
At the same time, their ability as Wall Street wolves has been challenged again. After the government was removed, they seemed so powerless. The so-called reliance on the stock market to deal a devastating blow to the economies of some countries was ridiculous.
If it were not for the consideration of the U.S. government and the power of the United States, I am afraid that all the funds they invested in the Japanese stock market would have been wiped out long ago. The Japanese government has too many means to cause the Japanese stock market to plummet sharply in a short period of time. It can directly
They were trapped inside.
It is not easy to protect the market, but it is too easy to destroy it. This is why these hot money mainly makes money by short selling. Compared with letting the stock market rise, it is obviously easier to make the stock market plummet.
They originally planned to slowly operate reverse short selling after the Nikkei index climbed above 30,000 points, but the Japanese government and consortium did not give them the opportunity to take the initiative and directly locked them in the long space.
.
At this time, even if they want to sell, no one wants to sell. After all, most of their orders have been taken over by several major Asian consortiums. These people are not willing to complete the delivery in advance and hope that more blood will flow from them.
As for those retail investors and small and medium-sized investment companies, they can only share a very small part, and in the short market, except when the delivery date is reached, they will be forced to buy and return according to the contract, so they cannot share much at all.
And because the market is all a short market, there are so many sell orders that it is very difficult for them to trade.
The Japanese stock market is a huge gambling market. The American consortium and the Asian consortium are the two biggest opponents. As for retail investors and small and medium-sized investment companies, they have very few chips and do not affect the overall situation at all. Only these two parties are the center of gravity. Many futures contracts on both sides are
Eaten by the opponent.
If you want to withdraw from the market, both parties must show their cards. It is unrealistic to rely on the surrounding chips to bet against the opponent. The chips under the two opponents are too large. How many chips do both sides hold in the Tokyo stock market?
Huge future orders worth hundreds of billions of dollars are waiting for the day after tomorrow.
John Milton, head of Asia of the California Foundation, said: "Everyone, our long-prepared plan will be launched. Although we lost in the stock market this time, we will make the Japanese economy pay a heavy price so that they will not have any problems in the future.
The strength can challenge us."
This time they have no intention of boosting the Japanese stock market. They are waiting for the futures contract to be delivered. Then it will be time for them to vigorously suppress the Japanese stock market and economy. This time they will make it impossible for the Japanese economy to turn over.
At the same time, other financial groups have already made preparations in other Asian stock markets, waiting for the arrival of next Monday. They want to make Black Monday of 1987 happen again.
In addition, they are also dissatisfied with Japan's current political circles. They are ready to bring political parties that are pro-their forces to power and at the same time find ways to divide Japan's six major financial groups and major Asian financial groups.
An Asian capital that is united is difficult to deal with, but an Asian capital that is fragmented and hostile to each other is much easier to deal with.
The Lee Consortium and its allies were directly excluded by them. This time, they first split the six major Japanese consortiums, secondly, wooed the Korean consortium, and thirdly, focused on suppressing the Lee Consortium. By then, the Japanese consortium would have no time to take care of themselves, and the Korean consortium would become enemies.
Let’s see how much strength the Li Consortium still has to compete with them.
The Lee Consortium that the American consortium often refers to includes the Hong Kong Bank Consortium and the Hsinchu Bank Consortium. In the eyes of the American consortium, these three consortiums are one, with Li Guangyu as the core.
K.J. Dijak said: "I know that everyone is unhappy with this result, but we have to recognize the situation clearly. Now we are unable to turn around, and we do not have the strength to force the Japanese Consortium and the Lee Consortium to complete the deal with us in advance.
With contract delivery, it is impossible for us to quickly increase the Nikkei Index.
The Japanese government is determined to side with the Nippon Consortium and the Lee Consortium this time. No matter how many off-market moves we make, it will be of no use to Japan now. After all, protecting the market is far more difficult than destroying it.
"
Protecting the market has never been their strong point, and this is the first time they have faced such a situation, so they haven't taken many actions and are really at a loss.
Now the request from their headquarters is to pull the Nikkei Index up if it can, and if not, wait for the delivery date to arrive.
Making money is no longer a problem they need to think about. This time, they have only one purpose, which is to destroy Asia's rapidly developing economy, interrupt its development of high-tech industries, bring the economies of Japan and the Four Asian Tigers into a downturn, and maintain the U.S. economy in the world.
status.
As long as they can achieve this set goal, the losses this time will be made up for later, and the major consortiums can bear the short-term losses.
The person in charge of Ford said: "You big conglomerates have big businesses, so you don't care about this loss. We at Ford don't have that strong capital. I hope everyone can make every effort to sweep the stocks in the market in these two days, so as to boost the Japanese stock market."
The economic index has risen rapidly, which can reduce our losses."
This time, the American conglomerates were also not at peace, and the quarrels were fierce. They even pointed the finger at several top consortiums such as Morgan, Rockefeller, and California. They believed that this operation was a trap dug by these consortiums and borrowed the help of Asian capital.
weaken their strength.
After Asia Capital took action, these major groups made little noise and did not make many meaningful moves at all.
Now they have given up their continued entanglement in the stock market in an attempt to disrupt the economic development of Japan and the Four Asian Tigers.
Even if such a plan is realized, it will not be of much benefit to the Ford Consortium. Their main business is the automobile group, and there are not many markets in Asia for them to develop.
