Life at the Top

Chapter 205

Inside the secluded villa, Rogers’ eyes were staring fixedly at the phone in his hand.

After he deleted the message, he lifted his head to look at the digital screen. A cold smile appeared on the corners of his lips.

“You’re Jasper, right? You’re too sly. I almost fell into your trap.”

While he said that, Rogers calmly gave his order, “Watch for a bearish and sell short. Don’t hold back.”

…

“It’s here! The short-selling party is attacking!”

Zack’s excited voice broke the contemplations of everyone in the living room.

At this moment, they could only see the 40 stocks plummeting wildly in the blink of an eye. In less than three minutes, they were almost at their price limits.

With the fund of 100 billion, not only the 40 stocks, but almost all of the remaining and surviving stocks in Harbor Stocks were plummeting wildly.

On the other hand, the Hansel Index was plunging like it had fallen down a precipice.

Oh no!

Almost everyone in Harbor City was howling in grief.

Jasper had never been so focused before.

“Make more openings!

“Build a defensive line at 7,610 points on the Hansel Index! Let them know this is our defensive line.

“Aside from the internet sector, buy all of the top ten stocks of all of the other sectors. Buy all of them with huge amounts of money!

“The authorized fund for this execution is 150 billion!”

After Jasper said that, Clark stood up suddenly. He exclaimed, “The total market rescue fund amounts to just 100 billion, so where is this 150 billion coming from?”

“I have them!” Jasper said insipidly, “Don’t worry about the funds.”

When he said that, he did not look at the conflicted expressions on Clark and the others’ faces. He continued to give out his orders.

The main forces of both sides had been fighting at close range.

This time, there was no probing. It was a direct grapple of fund injections between the two main forces.

Jasper stared straight at the Hansel Index. He watched as it got nearer to 7,600 points gradually.

At this moment, Jasper was a little nervous as well.

When the other party forced the Hansel Index down to 7,600 points, he would be able to use this trap and lure the other party here.

This trap was like a lasso. Once it got hold of the funds of the main force of the other party, they would be a pig in an impossible situation waiting to be slaughtered by Jasper.

The current situation was indeed developing according to Jasper’s prediction.

7,610 points!

Jasper had deliberately put down a defensive line. After a series of tough resistance, it was still broken through.

However, the following points would be more and more challenging for the short-selling party who was waiting for a bearish to break.

It was as if Jasper’s final defensive line was at 7,600 points. Once it was broken, Jasper would lose all control.

The fruit of victory was right in front of their eyes.

7,608 points!

Jasper was still resisting. He kept giving out orders based on the decisions he made. Zack and everyone in the team wanted so badly to grow four more pairs of hands to be able to operate in time.

7,605 points!

The smell of smoke in Harbor City was now extremely thick.

This trade war in the stock market was destined to be written into the textbooks of business schools, and it had already reached its true climax. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

7,602 points!

The pressure had been forced to the max.

At this moment, both Jasper and the short-selling party had already thrown their whole weights behind this.

Even the heads of the four rich families could not sit still now, let alone the investors out there. They were all standing up now, and their eyes were glued on the market.

Aside from Kennedy, of course.

He was pretending to look nervous, but there was a sneer and a hint of ridicule hiding deep in his features.

He felt that this was interesting. While looking at the reactions of these people, he suddenly wanted to know what his comrades’ expressions would be if they knew he was a spy and he had already leaked all of their information out.

When he thought about this, Kennedy could not help but wanted to burst out laughing.

Jasper stared heatedly at the digital screen.

Numerous pieces of information of the transactions kept refreshing on the screen.

An unprecedented and intense close-quarter fight was happening on the battlefield between the two main forces.

Everything looked normal.

He was protecting his defensive line and the opponent was inching closer to him.

However, it was as if the short-selling party did not have enough follow-up power. When the index was at 7,602 points, it would not fall no matter what.
