Chapter 628 – Baptism
Preparation.
“Are you going?”
“I’m worried.”
“I think it could be a career opportunity…”
CW Securities is bound to be in trouble.
Outside, people are being cursed.
There are a lot of worries inside.
This is because the investment environment in Korea has deteriorated.
‘But if you go wrong, you could really get screwed.’
It has been two years since Kim Yong-seok moved from Korea Investment & Securities.
If it is short, it is short; if it is long, it is a long time.
But I learned a lot.
CEO Lee Chan-wook.
I understand why he is making a name for himself.
“But it’s America…”
“That’s the problem.”
“There’s no way to communicate, and Reverend is on a different level from Korea.”
The scale has changed.
NASDAQ.
The world’s largest stock market.
It means moving the base.
It’s no wonder that CW Securities’ employees have a lot to think about.
It is an individual’s freedom to go or not.
“If you go for no reason, your career could be ruined.”
“You have to think about it.”
“Really.”
After that.
I don’t know what will happen.
Anxiety about the future is a concern for all office workers.
It’s even worse when you have to go all the way to the United States.
It is natural to have more thoughts.
Phew~
This is why the smoking room at CW Securities is crowded.
The same was true for the rooftop, which had a similar role.
My stomach is burning.
There is no better solution than smoking a cigarette.
“Among domestic securities companies, there is no one that treats us as well…”
“Of course.”
“Hey!”
“”Huh?””
It is also a kind of meeting square.
There are not just a few employees who are worried.
I want to look at the atmosphere in the company.
A time when we were sharing each other’s inner thoughts.
Click!
It becomes as quiet as a mouse.
This is because an employee opened the rooftop door.
Yoon So-ra.
It is bound to attract attention.
The appearance is too noticeable.
Not even a sales employee.
It belongs to the most important department called the strategic stock management team.
‘Oh…’
‘The mood is terrible today too.’
‘I wonder if this is the real humanity.’
The level is too high.
That’s why no one attacks it.
At most, a greeting.
I was looking to see if there was any opportunity to talk to him.
Chiik… !
It may have happened.
Something happens that no one expected.
Light a cigarette.
No, it is a luxury item called a cigar.
Phew~
Waste of money.
It’s a waste of time.
Someone else might have thought that way.
Problems arise when luxury is not suitable.
But she.
‘And…’
‘The sea conch is blooming.’
‘You can fill it. ‘I can fill it well.’
It is profitable.
Securities company employees’ profits vary greatly depending on their abilities.
Among them, it is the unique.
Strategic Stock Management Team.
The average annual salary is the highest within the company.
Phew~
Even leaving that background aside, it is clear.
It is becoming a picture.
Cigar.
It is a handmade cigarette made by rolling up tobacco leaves.
Very thick.
It is the size of an adult man’s thumb.
It is not a size suitable for women.
‘Keu…’
‘It’s not something you’ve only washed once or twice.’
‘Just that big thing, the plumpness of your lips.’
Tighten and tighten with thick lips.
Suck it deliciously and only smoke slowly flows out.
That scene.
It creates a luxurious atmosphere.
It is natural that employees’ attention is focused.
“Sora-san… I guess he’s fishy too.”
“Yes, why?”
“No, no! It’s a necessity~ These days, all office workers smoke cigarettes.”
“”That’s right! That’s right!””
It slowly approaches.
As one person swings the bat, people pour in hoping to become the next hitter.
There is also a practical reason.
Work environment.
From an office worker’s perspective, it is bound to be important.
‘The smell of tobacco is also like perfume.’
‘Write, write.’
‘Your voice is terrible…, No, it’s sexy.’
It’s desolate.
I am tired of the world.
We tend to want something called ‘healing’.
I’m not trying to film a melodrama.
Even if I become a supporting actor in that drama.
“What do you think, Sora?”
“Yes?”
“There’s a lot of fuss about the U.S. Branch. They even say they’re hiring people from the headquarters.”
It tastes good.
Just looking at it, just being around it.
‘Please…’
‘I go wherever Sora works.’
‘Aren’t you going to America by any chance?’
The quality of life changes.
The male employees listen intently.
Words coming out of her mouth.
It has a great influence on public opinion within the company.
“Of course I will go. Our team has no choice in the first place. We are currently reducing the proportion of Korean stocks.”
“Ah~”
“I guess so!”
“I’m sorry that this guy asked such a stupid question.”
An official has been released.
United States.
It suddenly appears to be a land of dreams and hopes.
‘Tsk…’
‘I wish you were in Korea.’
‘Then I have no choice but to go.’
I was just hesitating.
Going to the United States has its merits.
Employees who were worried.
It wasn’t even a matter of time to make a decision.
‘Did I come for no reason…? …’
Sora doesn’t think much of it.
I’m more concerned about this situation now.
Smoking.
Because what women do is not viewed socially favorably.
Phew~
Even though you know it, you burn it.
This is a way to soothe your stuffy stomach.
‘Teach me only the bad things.’
It’s because of Lee Chan-wook.
I forced myself, who was drunk, to do it.
It’s better than I thought.
I feel good.
It was an opportunity to smoke a cigar.
“I am then.”
“Are you going already?”
“I guess we made it uncomfortable…”
“Take a look!”
This is also the reason why I went up to the rooftop.
In most cases, it doesn’t bloom in the office.
‘Really because of that guy.’
Strategic Stock Management Team.
Touches the most assets.
It has the characteristics of a long-term investment.
You have to dispose of it.
It’s a situation where you have no choice but to be busy all the time.
Squeak−!
That in itself makes sense.
Even in my opinion, the current market is overheated.
“How’s the situation?”
“There is no significant change. Rather, it is good. As the buying sentiment at the bottom has become stronger, it has exceeded the amount we are throwing.”
Two-seam.
It’s to the point of going crazy.
KOSPI far exceeded 3,000.
‘Thank goodness.’
No one thinks it’s expensive.
Sora returns to the department and confirms.
This is the sales status.
Most of CW Securities’ domestic assets are being disposed of.
─Ant has put an end to the ant massacre at CW Securities!
Double kill!
Triple kill!
Ants are going crazy!
．
．
．
It can’t be easy.
The impact on the market is bound to be enormous.
‘I thought there would be an uproar.’
An unprecedented situation.
Large securities companies are selling Korean stocks.
Is something wrong?
It is not surprising at all if the market collapses.
Korean Newspaper− “Food market plunges 5%, trillions of won “Disintegrated in the air” Due to CEO’s harsh words”
Fact News− “Lee Chan-wook says he doesn’t need Korea… “Korea doesn’t need you either”
I was immersed in social issues.
Surprisingly uninterested.
“I don’t have much to worry about on the selling side… But the problem is buying. I think the responsibility is really great.”
It’s almost admirable.
Aggro against the public.
Rather, it is reducing the situation.
But that’s not the end.
The fact that a securities company sold stocks.
“Purchase is going well.”
“Really? How is your portfolio…”
“Well, I’ll sort it out until the next meeting. Yes, it took a while to sort it out.”
“Ah, I see!”
It means you have to buy it again.
I can’t play around with raw money.
Strategic Stock Management Team.
Divided into two teams, selling and buying are in progress.
‘Ha, fuck.’
I pass over the sales team’s questions.
It’s an awkward situation to talk about.
I’m not saying anything is not working.
If I had to guess, it’s doing well.
“It is said that domestic stocks can be disposed of at the target price. The actual fund flow is also stable.”
Buying team.
It is run by a few people, including Sora and Managing Director Yoon Seung-hyeon.
This is because it should not be known to the outside world.
It is the highest secret of all secrets and requires thorough security.
“It means there are no changes.”
“Yes.”
“We should do what we do too.”
“I should do it.”
Buying unusual stocks?
To hide your position?
That’s not the reason.
‘It seems like a really stupid thing to do.’
The atmosphere within the team may be subtle.
I don’t know if what they are doing is right.
─Buy order has been fulfilled!
Buy stocks.
We don’t just buy things in kind.
It includes options for hedging.
“Is it right to buy options this way?”
“Unlike Korea, most stocks in the U.S. Have derivatives linked to them, so it’s basic.”
“I know that too…”
Reduces market reaction.
Insurance is provided in case of emergency.
There are many advantages.
I’m not talking about such basic things.
What options are you buying now?
─Buy order has been fulfilled!
Definitely not worth it.
There is a 99.9% chance that it will turn into a piece of paper on the expiration date.
‘I understand if you’re betting on 0.01%.’
I am buying without any purpose.
Such a trading strategy(?) Is being established.
We have been preparing for more than half a year.
To buy these useless things.
“I thought the same thing at first. But Sora, the battlefield we will be fighting in from now on is not Korea. It is America.”
It’s at the level of playing with money.
This is something a normal investor would not do.
Even that nonsense has meaning.
It was something that could not be realized without experiencing it.
* * *
Short selling.
The act of selling borrowed assets in advance in anticipation of a decline in a specific asset.
“The analyst’s report also matches 120%! I can make enough profit.”
“What is 120%?”
“It means the situation is beyond what we expected.”
It doesn’t work that simple.
It is different in nature from value investing.
Merlin Capital.
Chief Investment Officer Richard smiles.
‘Thomas was right.’
A very competent employee.
I found a big fish that was delicious.
Something big happened in Korea.
A securities company moved its headquarters.
“They are moving assets first without conducting proper market research. It just so happens that we have spread the net.”
It’s clumsy.
It’s so stupid.
You are making such a mistake.
‘This is Nasdaq.’
The circumstances were disclosed through the 13F disclosure.
I plan to make full use of it.
How?
It is information power.
Secure news you can use.
─The sell order has been fulfilled!
It is released when the prey approaches.
It’s like a huge net.
‘This is information that has not yet been released to the market. Tomorrow night…, Is it morning in Korean time? It’s going to be very uproar.’
It’s definitely a country fish that doesn’t know anything about the world.
I thought it was a successful hunt.
