Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

Chapter 239 Large-Scale Buying and Rescue Fund

The attack plunged North America into panic, a rare occurrence where an attack on the homeland caused a stock market crash, a futures market crash, and a surge in oil prices.

At this moment, all the trading staff of Zhang San's fund in New York were urgently recalled. They did not expect that they would be summoned at this time.

"Should we short New York?" A trader discussed with interest with the person next to him. In their view, the attack on New York was a major event that would naturally cause panic throughout the United States, making it a good time to short the market.

The other man, however, was bored. Hearing his companion's question, he said, "What does it have to do with me? I'm just an ordinary American, not a politician, not a corporation, not an elite, just an ordinary American."

The team has five members, plus the team leader, making a total of six.

As for these local American thugs, they see very clearly that they are merely nourishment and cannon fodder for capital. Whether they are attacked or not is none of their business. As long as it doesn't happen to them, they don't care if the other side fights them to the death.

They only care about their own interests and only care about what can bring them benefits—that is, the company they work for.

Since the team leader urgently summoned them, it meant something big was about to happen. It was perfectly reasonable to need their people at this critical moment. Before the five men entered the trading room, their cell phones and all communication-related devices were confiscated.

Furthermore, they undergo comprehensive scanning checks. Additionally, the entire trading room is equipped with state-of-the-art signal jamming equipment. (New York)

After yesterday's sharp decline, the stock market continued its downward trend today. At this moment, the five men were staring at the huge monitor in the room, their brows furrowed as they gazed at the screen filled with red stock market charts. Was it already too late to enter the market now?

"It's pointless for us to short now! Besides, nobody's willing to lend me stocks. As for the futures market, there's absolutely no chance. There's a global sense of panic right now."

"I think the company would absolutely never choose to go long; everyone knows that very well."

"Could a Great Depression like that of 1929 erupt?"

"The situation is probably even worse than that..."

Just as they were chattering amongst themselves, their group leader walked in. He was holding a piece of paper in his hand, but there were only a few words on it: military industry, oil, food, and medicine.

The fund company they work for primarily deals in stocks, with only a small amount of futures trading. This allows them to use these futures contracts to hedge their stock positions.

The team leader cleared his throat, signaling everyone to quiet down.

"Everyone, the company is about to make a big move. After analysis, we will be focusing our efforts on the military, oil, food, and pharmaceutical sectors. The specific operational strategy will be sent to each of your computers shortly. This action concerns the company's future and your income, so do you all understand?"

The group exchanged bewildered glances, filled with doubt, but still responded in unison, "Understood!"

Then, the intense work began. The trading room was silent, with only the sounds of keyboard typing and mouse clicks.

However, the market situation was extremely severe, the global economy fell into recession, and investor confidence collapsed.

While five funds were buying up stocks and futures at rock-bottom prices, Universal, the Hollywood giant, announced that it would establish a fund primarily for disaster relief efforts at the Twin Towers.

In Europe and America, everything is business, and since it's business, the goal is naturally to seek returns.

The establishment of this fund was not accidental; it was initiated and requested by Zhang San. He was well aware of the enormous impact this disaster had on people and hoped to provide substantial assistance to the victims by setting up such a fund.

Therefore, when Global established this fund, it immediately launched a comprehensive online publicity campaign to maximize its reach to as many people as possible.

This move garnered widespread attention and discussion. When the news was confirmed, it received even more praise, and many people donated to the foundation through PAYPay to help those affected by the disaster.

The foundation not only focuses on helping those injured in disasters, but also pays special attention to families who have lost loved ones. They provide psychological support, financial assistance, and various resources to help these families overcome difficulties and rebuild their lives.

In addition, the foundation actively assists the families of overseas tourists, striving to find news of them here so that loved ones can be reunited.

These initiatives fully demonstrate Universal's social responsibility and humanitarian spirit as a Hollywood giant.

On Universal's official website, the establishment of a charitable foundation shines like a bright star, illuminating people's hearts. This foundation will bring endless benefits to Universal, and people are filled with goodwill towards it. When they discovered that Zhang San was the initiator, praise poured in like a tidal wave.

The establishment of this charitable foundation will have a positive impact on various sectors globally. It will provide assistance to those harmed in this disaster, allowing people to feel the warmth and support of others and improving their living conditions.

Zhang San, as the initiator of this charity fund, has earned people's respect and praise for his good deeds.

"Transfer those sums of money into the charitable fund, and our accounts will be balanced." Donations to charitable funds are often anonymous, making some things very easy to handle.

Zhang San sometimes marvels at how things that are considered corruption in mainland China are done openly and honestly in Western countries.

In North America, during election season, these groups bet on two fronts, providing large amounts of political donations because they have a large staff and employ many people, making them frequent guests of these congressmen.

This alone would cost his North American companies nearly $100 million, and even more during the presidential election.

This is the game rule in Western countries. He was just following orders from his subordinates. The actual operations were handled by the group's public relations department. They didn't care what race Zhang San was. This society is a capitalist world that only recognizes the strong. Of course, if they knew that Zhang San had more influence in non-Western countries, they might have different ideas.
