The Goddess Shines on America

Time, March 1, 1986.

US Eastern Time, 9:00 am.

Location, Washington.

Today's Nasdaq Stock Exchange is extremely lively, and Jordan Belfort has managed to get here today. After all, he is not an employee of any brokerage or investment company, but an ordinary person who graduated from a dental university, and he should not be eligible to enter here.

"Hey, hey, buddy."

He patted a professional investor on the shoulder: "Thank you for a moment. The bidding for new stocks will start soon. I have to use a machine."

Of course the young man was talking about the electronic bidder. The tall and thin Planck frowned, but his eyes were on Jordan's cheap suit: "Rookie? Do you know how to use this thing?"

"Oh buddy, you really know how to joke."

Jordan has already seized a favorable position while speaking. After all, today is a special day. Investors guarding bidders are everywhere: "This kind of electronic equipment has been in trading for several years, how can I not use it?"

Planck squirmed his lips silently. As an old man who has been in business for 30 years, he really wouldn't use this kind of new stuff, but this kind of shame can never be a rookie wearing a rookie costume. Before exposure.

"You just said that bidding for new stocks is rushing..."

"That's right, first ∵long∵wind∵wen∵study, ww￡w.cfw≠x.ne↖t, the listing of Microsoft Corporation!"

Jordan was very excited to operate the machine. He was ready and waiting for the bidding time to come: "This is an IT company with unlimited potential. My computer at home is the newly installed Windows 1.0. It is really great to use. !"

The sentence is not far from Planck's weakness, and he is somewhat annoyed: "Oh silly boy, this is nothing to excite, now the stock market is not doing well. Don't look at Microsoft's issue price of 21 yuan, the opening price can't be high."

"Oh sir, this is really hard to say."

Jordan waved his hand triumphantly. His short voice was indeed very loud: "Do you know who my client is? It's the director who filmed "Terminator", James Cameron! New shares seen by his character , How can you lose money?"

Planck was really shocked by moving out of Cameron's name. "Terminator" is a good movie, he himself took the time to watch it, and Warner's stock even rose a lot because of it.

But he said: "What's wrong with Cameron? He's just a film director. Stock trading is another field."

With that said, the time is almost up, and he is also busy bidding in front of another machine: "Even if it is a stock in the IT industry, look at me... IBM, my customers have made a lot of money on the price difference. million!"

"Of course everyone knows the value of old stocks."

Jordan manipulates the machine skillfully, customer name, James Cameron, investment amount, one hundred thousand dollars. After all, it is the celebrity guide who made a lot of money on the "Terminator", and the hands and feet of buying stocks are not small. Most people want to put out one hundred thousand yuan in cash, and they have to loan all their cars and houses into loans, but he says it's just a test of the water!

"But the degree of increase in new stocks is the biggest bet in the world!"

With that said, he used all Cameron's 100,000 dollars to buy Microsoft stock.

At this moment, Wall Street investors who are paying attention to the listing of new stocks do not know how many.

There are people who stare at bull stocks like Planck, and there are people who plan to gamble on new stock listings like Jordan.

Since its establishment in 1971, the Nasdaq Index has gone through more than ten years of development, and has increased from an initial 100 points to more than 300 points, attracting almost all new technology companies over the years.

Anyone with some foresight knows that the development potential of this exchange will be much more than that of the long-established New York Stock Exchange.

Time, it was 9:30am, the opening moment.

"It's so pathetic."

In the investment office of Goldman Sachs, an ordinary trader smiled and said: "Almost no one is buying Microsoft stock, and the opening price is falling."

"Leave time left!?"

"There are eight minutes, but no one is bidding at all."

Manager Brand is walking towards him quickly: "Neither is there at Morgan Stanley? How far has it fallen?"

"Yes, boss, there are almost no institutions bidding on Microsoft stocks, the issue price... my goodness, it has fallen by a dollar!"

A big news came before the market opened. Microsoft stocks with an issue price of as high as 21 US dollars had to open for less than one US dollar because there was no bidding! ? "

"Is no one optimistic about this stock?"

Brander touched his chin: "Microsoft's operating system is obviously selling well, because there is such a big mountain as IBM? It's all guys who don't see rabbits or scatter eagles, those brokerages..."

Suddenly, this kid stared at the computer and yelled: "One hundred thousand! There is a single bid of one hundred thousand! Is this going crazy? The initial stock of the entire company is only two million, and he actually wants to buy it at once. one tenth!?"

Brond said nothing more: "Then we should buy it quickly! Someone must have realized that this stock is going to soar. All the customers who may be interested in the Union, what are you waiting for!?"

In fact, the sound of the phone hasn't stopped since the beginning. Looking at the entire office, there are scenes of traders making calls to customers, which is more lively and noisy than Times Square.

The bell rang from one to nine o'clock, and everyone had to prepare for the opening. 9:30 is the real climax. You have to be busy until the lunch break before you can take a break. It can be said that in this huge market with no increase or decrease restrictions, countless shocking news may be born every day!

"Buy it right away... Oh my god, Microsoft's opening price has dropped to eight cents. I guess their boss is going to be depressed, right?"

"It will be depressed, but if the intraday rises, there will be no problem. Keep buying. Anyway, it will be so low."

The Nasdaq trading floor is also showing the process of call auctions. I don’t know how many people are watching this scene. Because no one bought it, the Microsoft stock with an issue price of $21 plummeted all the way, and it didn’t start until around eight cents. There are institutions to buy.

"If you see it, I just said that this stock is not good."

Seeing the crazy momentum of IBM's call bidding, Planck smiled triumphantly: "No one buys it at all!"

Jordan didn't speak, but smiled peacefully.

In fact, he has been paying attention to call auctions. It was after he threw Cameron’s 100,000 yuan in, that major institutions began to try to buy Microsoft stock, but the amount was not very high. The price can be determined.

Then, it was the opening moment.

Countless people are staring at the electronic display, staring at the stock they like.

Planck looked at the IBM column proudly, and waited for the basic fixed income value every day to start.

Jordan is staring at the IPO area.

9:30am, it's here.

"Going up, going up, Microsoft's stock is starting to go up!"

In the trading hall of Lou Lou Bank, the trader who had just invested a large sum of money yelled.

"Initial price, eight cents!"

"The second second of the opening, nine cents!"

"In the third second, ten cents in the third second!"

"The first, fifth, seventh, and seventh seconds, fourteen cents!"

You can’t look at the amount itself, but the degree of increase. From the initial eight cents to the current 14 cents, the net increase is as high as six cents, and the increase is as high as 75%, and this is just...

"Ten seconds of results!"

"Oh my God, it's going up straight, Microsoft's stock is going up straight!"

Obviously, in the face of new stocks, almost all well-known brokerages and investment institutions are watching. But seeing an injection of 100,000 yuan, and then a slight increase at the opening, a large amount of money was immediately thrown in!

"How many lots have you traded? Buy quickly, buy quickly, watch those fools who are eager to sell, quickly buy!"

"Telephone! Contact all the customers you can reach, and you must make them want to buy this stock!"

"75% increase in ten seconds! Goodness!"

Don't talk about Goldman Sachs. Headed by Morgan Stanley, *******, and Citigroup, all veteran investment banks have dedicated personnel responsible for tracking new stocks. I saw that in the entire Nasdaq market, a green line hardly has any inclination. With the height of a tower, it broke through to the extent that other new stocks could not be expected by the way!

"Wow! Look, sir, look!"

Jordan stood happily under the display, the beautiful green numbers kept rising like crazy. It took less than ten minutes to open the market, and the opening price of Microsoft rose from eight cents at the beginning to eighty US cents in an instant. The degree of points. Ten minutes, a tenfold increase!

"damn it!"

Planck's face couldn't hold back. He was staring at IBM's stock and also at Microsoft's. Of course, Big Blue was not frustrated by Microsoft's new stock issuance. On the contrary, because Microsoft announced as early as last year that it had launched a new cooperation with IBM, when its stock went public, IBM's stock price also increased precipitously. .

This is a good thing ~www.readwn.com~ But compared to the terrible level of Microsoft's ten-fold increase in ten minutes, I don't know where it is.

"No, you have to hang up the phone right away. This momentum of Microsoft is simply terrible. You must not lose such a good opportunity!"

After Planck realized the opportunity, he dared to go to the phone booth frantically.

Almost all stockholders in the United States hand over their funds to professional investment institutions, and each trader conducts daily buying and selling on their behalf. But there are only those in the exchange. Of course, all traders from all institutions cannot come to trade on the spot. Behind the scenes, there will inevitably be a delay effect of information.

"Sure enough, watching the stock price fluctuations on the spot, that's how it should be done!"

Jordan himself was surprised that Microsoft's roller coaster was a bit too big. There was no bidding from the issue price of $21 to the opening of only eight cents. This was a matter of ten minutes. Then when the market opened, this magical stock actually rose from eight cents to eighty cents, and it went up ten times in a flicker, it was more exciting than anything!

You know, without his 100,000 US dollars, other institutions still don't know when they will wait and see! (To be continued.)
