The American Kill Line: I Can Predict the Future

On November 11, World Bank President Robert Zoellick suggested in the UK that a modified global gold standard should be considered to provide guidance for exchange rate fluctuations.

Gold prices surged that day.

COMEX December gold futures settled up $6.90 at $1410.10.

Investors were initially bullish on gold, with many bulls actively participating.

"Have any major hedge funds entered the market?"

"I feel the same way. The dollar index and the euro are both falling, indicating a shift towards safe-haven demand."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go for it! If we don't get in now, it'll be too late."

Immediately, the price hit a record high of $1424.30 per ounce.

"Let's begin! Ignore the fluctuations and open all short positions."

Within minutes, gold prices plummeted to $1398.50.

"Oh no, this is a bull trap!"

"Damn it, we've all been tricked."

"Don't rush, don't rush, it's probably just a technical adjustment."

Ron looked at the board and shook his head.

Soros and his pack of hungry wolves are really impatient; they don't want to wait even a moment longer.

"Next is Ireland."

The next day, a piece of news became a trending topic on Bloomberg.

Irish debt yields surge to 9%

The European debt crisis has erupted again in full force.

The euro plunged 1.3% that day.

Over the next ten days or so, the euro continued its steady decline.

Even gold prices have started to decline slowly.

The US dollar index has rebounded.

Even with the EU pressuring Ireland to accept aid, the euro's decline could not be reversed.

Even the spreads of 5-year credit default swaps (CDS) in Spain and Portugal have reached record highs.

Ron then realized that this group was not only shorting Irish government bonds.

They didn't even spare Portugal and Spain.

On the 23rd, news of North Korea shelling South Korean artillery positions on Yeonpyeong Island became a trending topic on international social media.

Asian stock markets fell across the board, with the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index dropping 627.88 points (-2.67%).

The US dollar surged as safe-haven funds flocked to it, with the ICE Dollar Index soaring 1.3% to a two-month high, rising from 78.77 before the attack to 79.07.

Therefore, there is no possibility of the euro experiencing even the slightest pullback.

The following day, Thanksgiving, seeing the euro fall below 1.3000, Ron issued an order:

"Let's start closing out our positions from today."

"all?"

"Okay, all of them, but don't rush, take your time."

If we don't start running away soon, the main force will have to.

He couldn't possibly finish the last bite; landing safely would be the best outcome.

Ron then notified JPMorgan Chase to help close the positions after the holiday.

As he predicted, the US dollar index has risen by more than 7% since the 4th.

The three major U.S. stock indexes fell by more than 4%.

Ron thought that perhaps because of his involvement, the euro and gold fell even more than expected.

He changed course without realizing it.

The situation was largely settled, but Ron didn't go home.

Today is Thanksgiving, but gold and euros are trading normally.

So Ron ordered a big meal from the hotel and, during a break from trading, gathered with his employees at the company.

"Guys, you'll have to make do today. We'll make up for the lost time after this is over with a five-day holiday."

All the employees cheered and raised their Coke cans.

Working with a boss like that is a blessing.

Hunter Capital offers employees among the highest-paid employees on Wall Street.

In particular, the monthly bonuses are higher than the base salary.

Just as the company was bustling with activity, Taylor Swift made an unexpected appearance.

She rushed over and, in front of the entire company, threw herself into Ron's arms:

"Surprised, my Mr. Gatsby!"

Ron hugged her tightly: "It's a pleasant surprise. Aren't you filming in Australia?"

I miss you. If you don't come to see me, I'll come back to you.

Taylor clung to Ron and refused to get off.

After saying that, he kissed her deeply.

Upon seeing this, the employees of Hunter Capital started making a fuss, banging on the table and whistling.

This girl has a very outgoing personality; she even brought out the company's sound system and turned the place into a concert venue.

This added a touch of joy and liveliness to the Thanksgiving dinner.

Because of Taylor's arrival, Ron had to go home that night.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and the two became inseparable as soon as they entered the house.

From the elevator to the third-floor corridor, clothes were scattered all over the floor.

The battlefield spread from the bathroom to every corner.

Never underestimate the fighting power of a woman who can put on a two-hour concert.

Ron went in and never came out; I don't know how many times he vomited.

Taylor's bowling ball isn't very big, but its lower body is quite full.

Women with fuller lower bodies tend to have higher needs and greater fluid production.

Ron added even more lubricant each time.

So the comfort level has never wavered.

Finally, the two of them snuggled up on the sofa next to the fireplace in the room, covered with blankets.

Ron wanted to adjust his position, and Taylor, who was leaning against him, whispered:

"Don't move, my Mr. Gatsby. I like his sense of fullness, and he likes being in there, doesn't he?"

Ron paused for a moment, then let little Ron in a little.

I even pinched the little strawberry.

"Wait, let's rest for a bit and chat for a while, okay?"

This was her sensitive spot; Taylor raised her arm and stroked Ron's cheek.

"When I was on set, the director and producers all said that my portrayal of Daisy was excellent, and even my acting teacher said that I was suited to be an actress."

"But I know that I can only play Daisy, my Mr. Gatsby—"

She tilted her head back and kissed Ron's lips passionately: "You made me truly be Daisy from Francis's novel, the real Daisy. It's a pity that Leonardo's Gatsby fell a little short."

Many actors bring their characters to life through their superb acting skills.

But she truly experienced what Daisy felt when faced with luxury.

She wasn't acting; she was simply expressing her feelings.

Seemingly recalling something unpleasant, Taylor suddenly looked sorrowful: "Didn't you ask me why I suddenly came back?"

Ron responded softly.

"Because yesterday, Gatsby died in the movie." She choked up and said, "I don't know why, but at that moment it was so painful. I suddenly burst into tears on set, feeling like I had lost something very, very important."

Taylor turned around, and the leather sofa rustled.

"My Mr. Gatsby, on the plane back, I dreamt of her. She was lovely and beautiful."

She suddenly smiled slyly: "I lied to you, my Mr. Gatsby, today is not my safe period."

"Are you sure it's her?" Ron smiled. All his assets were placed in the family office and a trust fund had been established.

If an accident were to happen someday, the Hunt family would also be the beneficiaries.

However, on the other hand, if marriage is not planned, the heir should indeed be considered.

"Of course." Taylor cupped the man's face in her hands and said with certainty, "I know, she is my Daisy, Daisy Taylor Swift."

She knew her decision was impulsive, hasty, and even a little crazy, and she might regret it in a few days.

No, I will definitely regret it.

She knew this man wouldn't marry her; he might have even found another woman while she was away.

But it doesn't matter, she doesn't plan to get married anyway.

Taylor simply wanted to give Daisy and Gatsby a happy ending.

Therefore, this child will only take his/her surname.

Her name is Daisy, Daisy Taylor Swift.

Ron was silent for a moment, then pulled off the blanket covering him:

"Let's try again. It didn't seem deep enough the last few times."
