Chapter 634 The Bear Market Is Raging

"Mom, I'm really good here," Feng Yiping repeated the original words again. Huang Jingping, who was next to him, was holding a piece of cold pig's ear, biting it crunchy, and looking at him with a smile.

She has no symptoms of morning sickness, but in the past two days, she likes to eat these strange things. This cold pig's ear dish is not readily available in Chinatown, so she specially found a restaurant to order it.

In the few days after 911, my mother no longer cared about international long-distance calls. She made at least one phone call a day. At first, she called in the middle of the night. Later, she made an appointment at home at 10 am and at 6 pm in Silicon Valley. .

"Yes, didn't you see, we don't have any tall buildings here, so you don't have to worry, go out to do business? There will be, but it's okay, I'll ask them to come down and talk, okay!"

In fact, worrying about the safety of high-rise buildings is really unnecessary for parents to worry about.

After 9/11, without the government’s supervision, the owners of the high-rise buildings immediately strengthened their security measures. For example, when I went to San Francisco to look for pig ears yesterday, the landmark building in San Francisco, the Transamerica Pyramid Building, which used to be free to enter and exit, was already installing more The original American airport, but also strict security facilities.

Can't help but they are not active. Those high-rise buildings can be said to be all money. If something happens, who will they cry to?

For example, the World Trade Center cost as much as 1.1 billion US dollars! Who can easily bear such a loss?

As soon as the phone was put down here, Huang Jingping's cell phone rang again. Needless to say, it must belong to the family. Sure enough, "We are eating, um, everything is fine, how about you?"

After hanging up the phone, she pushed the dish that took so much effort to buy to Feng Yiping, "I don't want to eat, here you are,"

"Well, I can drink now, and I just saved it for the next drink, but I'm worried that if this continues, you're not fat, but I'm getting fatter."

Huang Jingping is already eating seafood tofu soup. "If you get fatter, you will get fatter. When you have children, you will lose weight."

This is true. In the first few months after the child is born, parents usually lose a few pounds tragically.

If the two of them gave birth abroad, it really saved a lot of trouble. If a daughter-in-law who is pregnant in China is cared by her parents-in-law, she will generally be overnourished. For example, if she is in China now, the parents on both sides will probably let her Eat five or six meals a day.

Fortunately, the United States does not seek to have a big and fat boy. On the contrary, it thinks that the baby is overweight, which is not a good thing. Instead, it will control the baby's weight.

According to the current standard, it is only 3400 grams, that is, 6 catties and 8 taels. This is still the authentic American standard. The doctor said that according to Huang Jingping's body shape, a child weighing 6 catties is very good.

So her current diet does not follow the domestic one, but follows the dietitian's list, focusing on quality rather than quantity.

After dinner, Huang Jingping lay comfortably on the sofa, holding a cut apple with a toothpick, watching the sitcom bought by Feng Yiping, everyone loves Raymond, and enviously said, "Say, we Could this be twins too?"

"The chance of this is still relatively small," Feng Yiping thought about it, but this matter is really beyond his ability, and he can't control it. "Whether it's one or twins, we all like it anyway,"

"Yiping," Huang Jingping sat up suddenly, leaned against the sofa, opened a pair of big watery eyes, and called out delicately.

Seeing this familiar posture, Feng Yiping felt dizzy, "Tell me, what do you want to eat?"

“I want to eat stinky tofu, deep-fried and topped with shallots and cilantro,”

Stinky tofu! I'm afraid it's harder to find this stuff than cold pig's ears, but she must satisfy her meeting's request, "Okay, I'll go to the city tomorrow, there's no ready-made ones, I'll let them rush to make it now,"

"Hee hee, take me with you, maybe you can see something you like to eat there,"

... ... ...

The 9/11 incident still dominates the TV screens, but, except for some parts of Manhattan, daily life in other places is slowly returning to normal. Some closed public facilities, such as bridges, tunnels and airports, have been reopened.

On Monday, the 17th, the U.S. stock market resumed trading after four days of closing.

Before the resumption of the market, in the face of possible or certain panic selling, the relevant departments of the US government have introduced a series of favorable measures and policies.

For example, the Federal Reserve announced that it would lower the federal funds rate from 3.5 percentage points to 3 points, and the US Securities and Exchange Commission also relaxed the restrictions on listed companies to repurchase shares...

However, everyone knows that even if the federal funds rate is adjusted to the bottom without considering other chain reactions, it will not have much effect.

Sure enough, at 9:30, as soon as the market opened, the market fell sharply, led by airline stocks.

American Airlines, which crashed two planes, fell by more than 10% soon after the market opened. American Airlines and United Airlines were not to be outdone, and the stock prices of their group companies also fell sharply.

Because experts estimate that in this incident, the insurance companies will pay at least more than 40 billion US dollars in compensation. Therefore, the stock prices of the insurance companies also fell rapidly.

The decline in the share prices of these sectors drove the share prices of the entertainment industry, such as Disney, down to a level comparable to that of the insurance industry.

By the end of the day at 4:00 p.m., the shares of Continental Airlines had fallen by half, American Airlines and United Airlines had fallen by 40%, insurance companies and entertainment companies such as Disney had fallen by 20%.

The market without lower limit protection plunged 7.13% today, and the Dow also plummeted more than 800 points.

It is estimated that just today, there are many people who have tens of millions of dollars in assets in their accounts, and they will be wiped out, and they will return to before liberation.

However, when someone loses, someone gains, such as Collins.

When he received the call from the Ministry of National Defense, he felt a little regretful. Why did he issue 10% private placement for Jiaqiang at a low price just before that?

Another example is Feng Yiping.

Looking happily at the increase in the account after the delivery, he thought, should he give it to the American Red Cross, please be more considerate?

Whatever you want, Buchanan just called, "Feng, I have some good news for you. Sure enough, the Department of Defense has sent personnel to Chicago to spend huge sums of money to buy maps."

"Oh, that's really good news,"

Buchanan didn't speak, he waited for Feng Yiping to ask where he bought the map, but how could Feng Yiping ask this, how could he not know where the United States was going to fight?

"It is estimated that in the next two days, the Ministry of National Defense should announce that it will send more fighter planes to the Gulf region," Buchanan had no choice but to say it himself because Guan Zi could not be sold.

"Okay, you worked hard!"

Feng Yiping did not ask for Buchanan's opinion on the donation. He figured it out, so let's keep a low profile.

On the 18th, the situation is acceptable. Many investors believe that after yesterday's sharp decline, the market is already oversold, so many institutions are buying on dips.

But on this day, on the 19th, the United States announced that it would send fighter planes to the Gulf region. On the 20th, Greenspan said that the terrorist attack had caused a sharp drop in economic activity in the United States. After that, the aviation giant Boeing announced a large number of layoffs .

These news have aroused investors' concerns about the US and world economy, triggering another terrorist sell-off.

In the past week, a quarter of New York stocks fell to their lowest point in a year, and the champion was United Airlines, which fell 60%.

This week, the total loss of stock market value reached a staggering $1.4 trillion!

This week, the Dow fell a total of 1369.7 points, a drop of more than 14%.

The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 271.18 points, a drop of 16%!

For Feng Yiping, these points are all money. Although to avoid suspicion, the contract he bought before will last until the end of the month, but this week's income makes him feel that the money spent on the acquisition before , really nothing.
