Chapter 130: Forced into a Short Surge
" Director, you're right."
Wang Ming nodded repeatedly in agreement, but then changed the subject.
"However... Director, I think we might be able to..."
Instead, we can cleverly use these clueless fools to further fuel our stock price surge!
Let's go even bloodier, let them die a more gruesome death!
"Oh? To further fuel the stock price?"
Qin Han immediately became interested and leaned forward slightly, signaling the other person to continue.
"That's right, Director!"
Such malicious short-selling behavior through large-scale securities lending usually requires concealing one's true identity and specific positions as much as possible.
Because once their short-selling intentions and position size are fully exposed in the market, they are likely to attract other bullish forces in the market, or even those astute speculative funds and some institutions to launch a frenzied attack and relentless assault!
Ultimately, he met a tragic end, dying without a proper burial!
The so-called "short selling" is to borrow shares held by others through a brokerage firm by paying a certain fee, and then quickly sell them on the secondary market.
Once the target stock price falls to the target price, the same number of shares are bought back at a lower price and returned to the other party, thus profiting from the price difference.
This is also a common short-selling tactic used by institutional investors in the A-share market.
"So, what I mean is... let's play along."
We can secretly spread this big news...
It was spread quietly and 'inadvertently' through special channels such as some financial media and private equity circles!
They say there's a mysterious, incredibly powerful short seller who's relentlessly attacking Jiangjin Group's stock, regardless of the cost!
"What effect will doing this have?" Qin Han asked with great interest.
"Of course it works! And the effect is immediate, Director!"
Wang Ming said confidently,
"Think about it, our Jiangjin Group is currently under the continuous stimulus of a series of major positive news, and the stock price is rising steadily, with market sentiment being extremely bullish!"
In this extreme situation where everyone believes stock prices will continue to soar, if someone still dares to go against the trend and short sell on a massive scale at great expense...
Therefore, once the stock price continues to rise to a critical point that they cannot bear, those short sellers will inevitably receive margin calls from various brokerages, commonly known as "margin call warnings"!
If those stubborn short sellers fail to replenish their high margin requirements within the stipulated time, or if Jiangjin Group's stock price continues its unstoppable surge, causing their paper losses to spiral out of control, then they will ultimately face the catastrophic disaster of being forced to liquidate their positions by major brokerage firms!
At that time, they will have no choice but to buy an equal amount of shares at the current ridiculously high market price, with tears in their eyes, to repay the shares they previously borrowed from the brokerage.
This will further drive up the stock price significantly!
"Therefore, in the turbulent financial market, a special kind of 'predator' has emerged— "
They are known in the industry as the "short squeeze suicide squad," or "speculative capital that specializes in killing short sellers!"
These experienced and astute hunters are often the most active speculative investors or aggressive private equity firms in the market, and may even include foreign hot money that has caught a whiff of bloodshed.
They specifically lurk in the shadows, sniping at those unfortunate short sellers who are exposed or who go against the trend!
They will swarm in like sharks smelling blood, uniting together to buy up the target company's stock at any cost!
They spared no effort to push the stock price to a terrifying level that no short seller could bear, ultimately forcing those poor short sellers to collectively liquidate their positions and lose everything!
Then, these funds that squeezed the short sellers can comfortably trample over the mountains of corpses piled up by the short sellers, making a fortune and raking in huge profits!
Listening to Wang Ming's explanation, Qin Han couldn't help but let out a cruel and smug cold smile.
He could almost see clearly that foolish and unlucky guy who was so ignorant of his own limitations and insisted on challenging the authority of Jiangjin Group would end up losing everything and going bankrupt under the combined attack of countless greedy and ruthless "short squeeze funds"!
"Interesting! Very interesting!"
Qin Han slapped his thigh suddenly.
"It's like someone proactively brings you a warm pillow when you're feeling sleepy!"
I'm actually worried that the stock price isn't rising fast enough, not exciting enough, not enough to completely shut up those old guys who doubt me!
"So... Director, what do you mean...?"
"Go for it! Do it your way, go all out!"
Qin Han waved his hand.
"I want to see which blind fool dares to mess with our Jiangjin Group! No matter who those bastards are, we'll make them cry for their parents and be ruined!"
"Yes, Director! I'll arrange it immediately!"
Investment Director Wang Ming excitedly accepted the order and left, his steps lightening with excitement.
Once again, only Qin Han remained in the vast, luxurious office.
He leaned back comfortably in his large, comfortable executive chair, a playful smile on his face like a cat catching a mouse.
Should we send someone to investigate and find out which fool is behind this?
never mind.
Qin Han shook his head dismissively, feeling it was completely unnecessary and a waste of time.
When all the lurking "short squeeze funds," like a swarm of hungry sharks smelling blood, swarm in from all directions and tear that utterly foolish prey to shreds, the front pages of major financial news outlets will naturally rush to report it, complete with pictures and text—
"Shocking! Mysterious funds made a huge bet on shorting Jiangjin Group, only to suffer an epic and frenzied short squeeze, losing everything overnight. The person in charge, unable to bear the pressure, committed suicide by jumping off a building!"
Wow, just thinking about that bloody, exciting, and exhilarating scene is thrilling!
Only in this way will it be truly exciting!
That's enough to make me feel better!
