No matter how many people had their eyes glued to the situation, father time did not wait.
The following morning, when the sun rose, countless professionals were already sitting in front of their computers half an hour early as they waited for the market to open.
They knew that one day was not enough to show the full severity of this storm involving both the medical system and pharmaceutical enterprises.
All these listed pharmaceutical companies were huge businesses, and there was no way they would be willing to watch their share price fall without intervening.
If two opposing parties were respectively trying to raise and drop share prices, then the situation would develop into a cash grab for capitalists. A bloody battle was about to commence!
Countless people were anticipating today’s market; they knew that havoc would wreak through the stock market today.
Due to its huge market cap as well as the bet with Jasper, Seatreasures Group’s market was the most attractive target.
Seatreasures Group on Harbor Stocks even vaguely seemed to have the air of a leading enterprise in the pharmaceutical industry.
Thus, both investors and organizations had all tacitly begun to pay attention to Seatreasures Group’s trendline half an hour before the market even opened.
It was 10 a.m., and Harbor Stocks officially began trading for the day.
The moment the clock struck 10 a.m., the computing center immediately gathered all auction stage data and the trendline for the share price began to move.
“Seatreasures Group dropped by 1 index point since the market opened.”
Jake’s report sounded by Jasper’s ears. Seatreasures Group’s share price continued to drop!
Jasper and Henry were in the hotel study. They placed a projector in the study so they could project and look at Seatreasures Group’s trendline on the wall.
Another large screen showed Jake and his team of traders bustling about.
“Enter the market,” Jasper instructed.
Henry was stunned for a moment. While he had no understanding of finance at all, he had learned quite a bit from Jasper just from being by his side. Hence,
Henry could at least understand the data on the market.
“There’s still a lot of sell orders. Everyone’s trying to sell out the shares they have on hand, so the share prices will definitely keep dropping. Won’t we make a loss if we enter now?”
Henry piped up since he functioned on the principle of asking when he did not understand something.
Jasper wanted Henry to become familiar with these simple tricks in the securities market, so he replied. “Making a loss is guaranteed the moment we enter the market, but it won’t be a huge loss. Alban’s in more of a rush than we are. Besides, if we wait until we no longer
will make a loss before we enter the market, that would mean that Seatreasures Group’s share prices have already begun to rise. We won’t be left with much if we wait until then to enter.”
Henry only seemed to vaguely understand Jasper’s explanation.
At that moment, Jake had already begun to carry out Jasper’s instruction.
A huge buy order entered the market
Amidst the countless sell orders, this buy order seemed especially eye-catching.
The numbers continued to move and the funds on Jasper’s accounts began to drop horrifyingly fast.
Replacing them were a mountain of Seatreasures International Group shares.
Under the scrutiny of countless pairs of eyes, Jasper’s action had stirred all sorts of reactions.
Jasper’s and Alban’s bet was no longer a secret, and Jasper’s account was well-known in the industry.
Thus, some organizations and investors were stunned when they saw Jasper buy in with such a large number of shares.
“What the f*ck. I thought Jasper wanted Seatreasures Group’s share prices to drop? Instead of shorting his account, why is he buying more? Is Jasper crazy?!”
“Seatreasures Group’s share prices had been plummeting since the market opened. Rather than Alban himself, the first order to rescue the market actually came from his enemy, Jasper?! What’s he trying to do?”
“Maybe Jasper made the wrong trade? Maybe he ended up buying when he was trying to sell?”
This was not the first time someone acted against the market trend. In fact, the largest fat-finger transaction had involved more than one billion funds, happening abroad.
While countless people wondered if Jasper had gone mad, a large professional organization seemed to have understood what Jasper was trying to do.
