Hongkong.

Zhang Manyu sat on the soft swivel chair, kicked the desk in front of her, and then turned her body, then looked at the rotating ceiling above her head, and was a little stunned.

The secretary looked at Zhang Manyu's actions strangely. She had always been very afraid of this mysterious manager, because the general manager's words could determine the flow of countless funds.

After returning from Tokyo, Zhang Manyu was still investing. Although she made a lot of money in the last action, many of the funds could not be withdrawn for the time being. She would be able to circulate repeatedly in the financial market first.

Zhang Manyu has already had a sharp vision and is becoming more and more at ease in investment, but recently, she has begun to hesitate.

Especially, last Friday, their investment company sold a large amount of stocks, leaving only a small part of them, following Zhang Manyu's secretary for a year, thinking that this was preparing to operate the market and make a surprise profit, but judging from the manager's current appearance, it was not like that.

Zhang Manyu is waiting, waiting for the performance after the stock market opens at 10 o'clock today.

According to the above, in October last year, there was a sudden sharp drop in the stock market. In order to avoid losses, they shorted a large number of stocks at that time, but the stock did not fall sharply.

On the contrary, it has been rising.

Starting from the second half of 1987, the U.S. stock market continued to rise, with a price-to-earnings ratio reaching 23 times. The Horizontal Index rose by 30 in six months, and at that time, the Dow Jones Index reached 2722.42 points.

At that time, many people expected that something unfavorable might happen. Now, the US economy is not stable, such as a huge trade deficit, huge military spending and constant currency depreciation.

Zhang Manyu is very convinced of the news passed down from above. Without the news above, there would be no glory in the Hong Kong dollar crisis and the Japanese yen crisis. The person above is definitely a premonition for the uncertainty.

But this time, it was indeed wrong, the above prediction failed.

Last October, a large-scale stock market plummeted and did not happen.

Kusai is not omnipotent, and history has long been changed. Kusai only knows that in history, in October 1987, the US stock market would plummet, causing global stock markets to plummet, and became the direct fuse of the global economic recession in the late 1980s.

However, due to Kusai's time travel and history have changed a lot, this crisis has not been staged on time.

Kusai is no longer a charlatan, but Zhang Manyu's investment institution still needs to continue.

After several months, Zhang Manyu has been paying attention to changes in the stock market. Just last Friday, the New York stock market fell by 91 points after several months of hitting new highs.

91 points are actually not much, accounting for only five percent of the entire index. Moreover, due to the time difference and other factors, other stock markets have not been affected, and even the Toronto stock market, which is synchronized with the New York stock market, has not been affected.

However, Zhang Manyu keenly discovered the problem, as if he had knocked down Domeer domino. A small decline could have catastrophic consequences. In economics, this is called the herd effect.

Therefore, Zhang Manyu sold out most of the stocks she held last Friday, and because she started to do it early, the transaction had been completed before the stock market closed.

Because trading cannot be carried out on Saturdays and Sundays, but on Mondays, it is very likely that the accumulated effect will explode.

"Sydney has opened, no abnormalities have occurred." said a trader.

Zhang Manyu sat up from the chair, walked a few steps, and came to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

The hour hand slowly pointed to ten o'clock, and the Hong Kong stock market finally opened.

"The Hang Seng Index began to fall rapidly." A trader looked at the screen on his computer and couldn't believe his eyes.

Zhang Manyu didn't turn her head and looked at the huge city outside. It was another stock market storm. Is it coming?

As soon as the Hong Kong stock market opened, the Hang Seng Index fell by 120 percentage points.

The stock market storm really began again, according to the time zone, and began to develop one after another, first in the Asia-Pacific region, the stock market fell across the board, then in Europe, and then back to New York.

Although Monday in New York was the latest due to the international date change line, the whole world is interconnected. Stock markets in Hong Kong, Asia-Pacific, and Europe have begun to fall, and the news has already reached the United States.

Although it is not yet time for the opening of the market, countless investors are waiting in front of stock exchanges or online computers. They are looking forward to the stock not falling too much.

Although some smart people have learned their lessons and no longer invest all their funds in the stock market, debts and real estate, they are their investment directions, but there are still some people who invest all their savings in stocks, which makes them even more uneasy.

However, compared to other countries, there is something on the US stock market that makes them feel a little more at ease, program trading!

This is a real-time calculation of stock price changes and trading strategies using computer programs. It gradually became popular on Wall Street in the late 1970s. Simply put, it was to hand over the task of stock speculation to the computer. When the computer program saw the stock price drop, it added the selling of stocks according to the mechanism set in the program.

As long as the market opens, sell the stock first, there will be no problem, right?

They could only comfort themselves in their hearts like this, although they also vaguely thought that if they wanted to sell stocks, someone had to buy them. If the stocks fell, who would dare to buy them?

Finally, the market opened.

Almost all netizens will not forget today, this Black Monday, the worst day in Wall Street history!

Just today, exactly like in 1929, the US stock market ushered in another big collapse.

Computers with special programs are constantly selling, all the phones are busy, the New York Stock Exchange is cloudy and the atmosphere is tense. All stock prices are falling wildly, and the price changes are so fast that even the speed displayed on the computer screen cannot keep up with the actual changes in the market.

The entire stock market has lost control. On this day, as an important indicator of the US economy, the Dow Jones Index fell by 500 points, and Sam Walton, the world's richest man, lost $2.1 billion on this day.

Affected by the collapse of the US stock market, stock markets in London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Sydney, Hong Kong, Singapore and other places also began to fall sharply, and the whole world was subjected to strong fluctuations.

Just when the stock market was in crisis, the major events that happened in the Port of Saddam in Iraq were less attracted by the public.

As a witness to the friendship between the two sides, two destroyers of the Soviet Navy traveled thousands of miles to visit Iraq. This shocked the West. Now the Soviet Union is about to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan, but if the Soviet Union and Iraq reach a closer relationship, then the Soviet Union may not need to go south to the Indian Ocean without passing through Afghanistan or Pakistan.

It is a closer choice to go from Iran, just go south from Khorasan. The current Rajavi government is completely obeying Iraq. As long as Iraq agrees, the Soviet army will appear directly in the Indian Ocean.

The Middle East has rich oil resources, and this is a place where military strategists must fight for. The Soviet Union has long thought that its own power has been inserted here.

Could it be that the Soviet Union withdrew some agreement with Iraq?

For a time, with the visit of the two warships, all kinds of rumors had spread to the whole world.

However, the result of this incident was shocking.

Iraq expressed a warm welcome to the arrival of the Soviet warships. Even the Iraqi President personally arrived at the Port of Saddam and boarded the warships himself.

Although Iraq also has warships, the maximum displacement is not as high as 3,000 tons. Both warships have a displacement of more than 8,000 tons.

Standing on the bridge, below is the powerful anti-ship missile. Although in later generations, this kind of missile was known as an aircraft carrier killer, in fact, it cannot pose a threat to aircraft carriers because its range is too close. However, it can definitely destroy other warships other than aircraft carrier formations.

With the arrival of these warships, fifty 3m80-day anti-ship missiles will also arrive at the Iraqi naval base, but now, these two warships still have Soviet flags flying.

"President Kusai, these two warships are brand new, and are built at a fast speed, which is almost half a year faster than we use ourselves." Navy Colonel Yerov, who was in charge of this mission, said that before he came, he had been operating on another modern class in the Soviet Union for two years and had become the deputy captain.

"Thank you very much," said Kusai: "It's time to let these two warships join our navy. We have to feel wronged that the hundreds of naval soldiers who came with the ship will stay in Iraq for half a year first."

"There is no problem at all, they should be very honored to come here." Ye Ruofu said.

In China, everyone envies their colleagues who can come to the Middle East, with good treatment and good living conditions. They are all looking forward to coming to Iraq. Now, bringing them here. Although they don’t know their tasks yet, they all have to thank themselves, Ye Ruofu thought.

"Okay, then I'll order." Kusai said to himself, Deputy Commander of the Iraqi Navy Nasser: "As the Soviet Union repeatedly defaulted on Iraq's debts, Iraq decided to temporarily withhold these two warships. If the Soviet Union cannot repay the debt, then Iraq will have the right to decide where the two warships will go, including for sale or for use on their own."

With Nasser's order, a large number of Iraqi sailors began to step onto the two warships and control the two warships, which surprised the reporters on the shore. Which set is Iraq performing now?

Then, they heard a news that surprised them even more. The Iraqi government actually dared to touch the polar bear's butt and detain these two warships!
