American Fortune Life

Chapter 1936: The West Is Not Light, The East Finds Light!

“It's good, it's delicious--”

Andy, watching the vicious surroundings of the people eating Guardians holding their phones, holding Starbucks' coffee with one hand, sipping in the mouth of a very traditional Seattle sandwich, had to say that this traditional flavour made people more addicted to it!

Soft bread is sprinkled with cream cheese, a slightly scorched hot dog, and served with onion sauce! It's the highest level of enjoyment of the people!

With a cup of Seattle's classic Greek yogurt, and a sandwich assistant, he smiled and watched the Grand Demon King enjoy the roadside stall, completely ignoring the people around him and the shopkeepers who laughed like flowers.

“Don't just point your phone at me. I want to share this food with you. I want you to eat it, John. Make it for you--”

“Oh, okay, now! ”

When Andy asked for a treat, he said thank you to Andy, and the vendor at the stall laughed and began to make it smoothly.

As such, Andy stood on the street, eating sandwiches, chatting with people on the road around him, and people were laughed at by Andy's kind little jokes from time to time, and the atmosphere was very happy.

That evening, Andy's very own people's videos of food on the roadside immediately appeared on major videos and Internet portals, and the news was broadcast on TV. Watching the video, Andy and the passers-by laugh and joy scene, they all had to show their hearts and minds to smile. They were all filled with good feelings for Andy Smith, the world's richest and most affluent side of the earth. After all, nobody liked tall, arrogant celebrities.

And of course, Andy was temporarily motivated, because of his wealth and status today, and it's certainly not appropriate to appear casually in a complicated market, you know, there are so many madmen in the United States, and the more terrible madmen can still get guns, and the threat is too great.

Happiness is always one thing after another, and the next day I fly up to Andy in Asia in the sky palace, and I look at the New York Post in bold bold, 'Thank you, goodbye!’ At the end of the period, the angle of his mouth rose, exposing his big white teeth.

“Tsk, Murdoch, this old guy, he's a real believer! ”

The little assistant sitting in the air seat opposite him heard the drama of the Great Demon King, one of the oldest newspapers in the history of the United States. The newspaper, founded in 1801, was killed by the Great Demon King. It was truly brutal.

“Oh, with the foresight, I'm sure the rest of the newspapers would like that when I and my family start flirting and smudging, I'll weigh in! ”

This time Andy tried to offend Murdoch, the old fox, and the press group, just to kill the chicken to show the monkey, the most difficult news group had to close the newspaper to calm his anger, and he believed that no one would ever target him that hard again.

He's trying to tell all the media. Don't mess with me. It's serious!

The assistant stood up very attentively, turned on the TV, and moved to NBC News. She believed that the suspension of The New York Post was definitely the biggest news in New York, and that television would definitely cover the scene, and seeing the opponent's terrible fate at that time might make the Great Demon King feel more comfortable.

“We don't want this, and neither should we.” An editor of The New York Post stepped out of the newspaper building in the Upper East Side of Manhattan with dismay in the face of media colleagues waiting there.

A New York Post reporter walked out of the office wearing a T-shirt with the words "Goodbye, cruel New York Post" on it.

Some reporters wept, “My wife and I work here. Tomorrow, this will brutally strike us. ”

And of course, there was anger, and in the face of the camera, there was anger, and he said, "As anger subsides, hopefully history will judge us and him on the basis of what we have done all these years. ”

“Huh.” Listen to the TV, those hints, Andy couldn't help but smile and shrug his shoulders, which he could totally understand, after all, he just smashed his job, he was unemployed, and he was angry, he couldn't help complaining.

”Boss, Budderstone phone--“

The assistant handed over the phone, which kept ringing, and Andy smiled and took the phone. He was instructed to put the TV down, and the assistant took the remote and turned it off.

“Bud, can I help you? ”

“Boss, just got word that the Securities and Exchange Commission will announce in the near future that“ Lightning Directive ”trading in US stock trading will be banned to eliminate the unfair advantages of some brokers in trading in stock. ”

Andy's eyebrows couldn't help but whisper when he heard the message from Badstone on the phone, "That's not good news. Isn't the SEC ban going to need an internal vote first, and it's going to be subject to public scrutiny, and won't it come out in the short term? Why are you so quick this time? ”

The so-called "Lightning Directive” trading refers to trading instructions that can be traded several milliseconds faster than public trading in trading markets such as Nasdaq, Buzz Global Market, etc. With high-speed computer processing, these brokers can take advantage of these milliseconds to get better trading prices.

In the Nasdaq stock market, for example, investor trading information tends to flash into these high-frequency trading sets of computers, 0.03 seconds before being disclosed to everyone on the market. In half a second, the high-speed computer software used by large investment banks provides insight into valuable information, such as the increase or decrease in demand for certain stocks. Large investment banks can therefore take advantage of this advantage by engaging in stock trading ahead of other investors in the market, thus pushing or suppressing stock prices.

The problem with Lightning Directive trading is that some brokers gain unfair competitive advantages, and some trading platforms that allow Lightning Directive trading also have unfair competitive advantages over traditional exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange.

“Previously, several members of Congress had written to SEC to demand that the" Lightning Directive ”deal be cancelled, otherwise legislation would be passed to prohibit such transactions. This led SEC President Mary Shapiro to ask her subordinates at yesterday's internal meeting to come up with a quick-implementable plan to eliminate the injustices caused by the Lightning Directive deal.” Budstone explained to Andy on the phone.

“Looks like we're going to make a lot less money in the future...” Andy wasn't so depressed, it was a loophole known to the people on Wall Street, and the time lag of a few milliseconds was not so easy to control. Of course, the advantage was still huge. There must have been some unfair factors for some ordinary people and traditional exchanges, but if you really wanted to cancel it, it would have had some effect.

“We can't change that. It's not fair in itself. We can only accept reality. Besides, it takes milliseconds to really make money. That's the big deal! ”

Andy said that, but it's still very hot to see that high-frequency trading can generate more than $20 billion in rich profits for exchanges in a year, but now that the market is paying more and more attention to high-frequency trading, the controversy is getting bigger and bigger, and naturally it won't blend with blindness, so it's the big money that gets bored.

Hanging up the phone, Andy squinted his eyes and sighed with a touch of his chin, instead of going up the corner of his mouth. Since the United States is ready to cancel the lightning command deal, just change those high-speed computers somewhere else. It's a good choice, whether it's in Europe or Heaven Dynasty, but ask Li Xiaoying if he needs it.

So, capital is without borders, the West is not bright, and the East can be bright.

After 13 hours of flight, due to jet lag, Andy's air palace landed at Kimpur International Airport around 4 p.m. the next day, and Seoul was really hot and humid in August.

Just walking out of the hatch, Andy was extremely uncomfortable by the hot weather in Korea. Looking at the lower apron, Li led a group of his men to the aircraft gangway first. Andy flattened out a bit of irritability, smiled towards the gangway, opened his arms, and prepared to shake hands for Li first came a big hug.

“Welcome to Korea again! ”

“Ha ha, thank you. ”

Andy and Lee slapped each other on the back, letting go and laughing at each other.
