Chapter 139: What Could Shake the Entire Stock Market?
「Monday.」
「Eight in the morning.」
When Lin Feng arrived at the office, he saw Huizi staring at him with an excited expression.
"Is there something on my face? Why are you staring at me like that?"
Lin Feng nonchalantly walked to his desk.
Huizi shook her head vigorously. "No, it’s not that. I’m just in awe of you, Mr. Lin!"
Lin Feng glanced at the time. "Rein in your personal feelings. It’s work time now."
Huizi patted her chest, trying to calm herself down.
She had been unable to calm down ever since she’d learned that the stock Lin Feng bought belonged to the very company that had just developed a new drug.
When she came to work this morning, Huizi was more energetic than ever before.
Yang Qiniang was in a similar mood.
However, although Yang Qiniang knew the stock Lin Feng had bought was doing very well, he now had his own projects to manage.
Just as he had told Lin Feng, Yang Qiniang had indeed pulled out in time without getting too greedy.
As a result, he hadn’t lost any of his fifty million; in fact, he’d even earned a hundred thousand or so.
First thing in the morning, Yang Qiniang had already started strategizing with the three people under him.
Thanks to Lin Feng’s subtle guidance, Yang Qiniang had now developed his own understanding of certain market sectors.
As a result, he now had a vague idea of which stocks he wanted to buy.
As soon as the market opened,
Yang Qiniang began to tentatively make some investments.
After all, he didn’t have Lin Feng’s ability to see future market trends.
So he could only keep a close eye on the broader market,
injecting his funds little by little.
While Yang Qiniang was being cautious,
Lin Feng was the complete opposite.
First thing that morning, Lin Feng saw that the company’s stock was already skyrocketing.
It had shot up by eight percentage points.
This was a terrifyingly fast pace.
Moreover, the chart showed a straight upward line with no downward fluctuations whatsoever.
This meant that many people were likely bullish on this stock right now.
Even as the stock was climbing, people were willing to pour money into it.
After the stock rose by eight points, Lin Feng waited a moment before having Huizi pull out a portion of their funds.
By now, Huizi’s obedience to Lin Feng’s orders was absolute.
She immediately sold off seventy-two million worth of the stock.
Because the stock had risen by eight points, their principal of one hundred sixty million had earned twelve million in less than four hours that morning.
Lin Feng pulled out the extra amount,
leaving a round one hundred million of capital invested in the company.
As for the remaining seventy-two million he had withdrawn,
Lin Feng of course didn’t let it sit idle.
He immediately had Huizi invest it in the semiconductor sector.
For the past few years, semiconductor stocks had been quite volatile.
And for various other reasons, the semiconductor sector had long been sluggish.
The specific stock Lin Feng had Huizi choose had also been dormant for some time.
Lin Feng timed it perfectly, investing the money at a relatively low point.
Just as Huizi completed the trade,
the pharmaceutical stock on the other side hit its limit up.
And it had happened almost instantaneously.
The final slope of the red line on the chart was nearly ninety degrees.
Ten points.
It had actually climbed that high.
And the most terrifying part was, the stock didn’t even wait until the afternoon.
It was only ten in the morning,
and the stock had already hit its limit.
At that moment, inside the brokerage firms,
everyone watched as this stock took the lead and shot straight for its limit up.
The brokerage firms were in an uproar.
No one had expected this stock to be so strong.
Some people had even wanted to wait for a small dip before trading, but they never got the chance.
They could only watch, wide-eyed, as the stock hit its limit.
This stock also set a record.
It was the fastest stock to hit its limit up after the market opened in the last six months.
Huizi couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief.
If Lin Feng hadn’t decisively pulled the money out just now, the exchange would have halted all trading on the stock after it hit its limit up.
That would have meant the money would be tied up in the market for another day.
And Lin Feng would have had less capital to work with.
Especially since the stock was still climbing slowly when it reached an eight percent gain.
But after eight percent, it suddenly shot up to ten percent.
And then it immediately hit its limit.
It gave people no time to trade or even react.
Sometimes, Huizi suspected Lin Feng had the ability to predict the future.
’How else could he time things so perfectly every single time? It’s simply divine.’
Lin Feng had known the outcome for this stock all along, so he wasn’t surprised at all.
He just gave it a simple glance before his gaze fell on the newly purchased stock.
The trend for this new stock didn’t look very good.
Its chart was still flat.
All the way until the market closed for the midday break, the line showed no signs of rising.
But Lin Feng wasn’t in a hurry.
During lunch,
Lin Feng saw Yang Qiniang, who looked deep in thought.
When Yang Qiniang saw Lin Feng walking over, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"I saw that your stock hit its limit up. Congratulations!"
Lin Feng nodded. "What did you buy this morning?"
Yang Qiniang picked up a nearby tablet. "These two stocks. Vice President Li is watching one, and I’m watching the other."
Lin Feng had noticed these two stocks before.
Before the midday break, the trends for these two stocks looked pretty good.
Although there were some fluctuations, their overall trajectory was upward.
But in the afternoon, these two stocks would experience major volatility.
Lin Feng noticed it wasn’t just these two stocks.
At two in the afternoon, the chart of future stock trends in his mind showed that
most stocks would fluctuate for a period of time.
Lin Feng wasn’t stupid.
He worked backward from that fact.
For the entire market to be thrown into turmoil, something must have happened in the external environment.
’What on earth could happen... that would be enough to shake the entire stock market?’
Lin Feng frowned in thought.
