All-round mathematician

Chapter 159 The Nasdaq Crash

No one can bear Buffett's anger. In the world's financial circles, he is a man of the word.

When the order is issued, his secretary is the busiest. He not only informs the heads and brains of the news, but also communicates with HR. After all, there are many masters in mathematics in the group.

During working hours, most of the group's personnel are in the building. The real 10 minutes is no more than no less. People in the financial industry are racing against time.

When Buffett stepped into the large conference room of the group, he swept his gloomy face, and the elites in neat suits jumped up and down, as if they were being inspected.

The whole white shirt, black suit.These people, with top salaries on Wall Street, go to all high-end places, today is the time to contribute to the group.

"How many people are there?" Buffett asked the female secretary behind him.

The female secretary flicked her gold-rimmed glasses and said, "35 people."

Buffett frowned deeper, probably not just these people: "Why are there so few?"

"There are very few people with a master's degree in mathematics. The undergraduates with the largest base will be promoted to graduate students, and they will basically transfer to finance and economics." The female secretary was expressionless, and the boss ordered her to go on, and she got the information from the HR manager.

"In the future, I will be recruited to increase the proportion of mathematics majors, and reduce the number of people in finance and economics year-on-year. Under the same conditions, those with a mathematics degree are preferred, understand?"

"Yes, boss."

The conversation between the two was very loud, and the employees sitting here were all practitioners of mathematics, and they couldn't help but feel very happy when they heard it.

Could it be that the spring of mathematics is coming, even depressing the most popular financial and economic computers.

Today, Buffett is really shocked. In the past, the employees of his company naturally focused on economics and finance. After today, mathematics is his first choice.

Maybe it's not just him, the world's financial community, starting today, will refresh their views on mathematics practitioners. They are not only good at theoretical research, but also able to calculate the world.

"Everyone." Buffett stood at the head of the long conference table, with a straight face, and said: "Today is the most critical moment for my investment group. Please be careful and careful."

Buffett's tone is quite polite, which is a 180-degree change from the embarrassment and strength before leaving the office.

Only the female secretary next to him knew about this situation. Before, these people were told to leave when they were late, but now they are so friendly. It seems that the boss really focuses on mathematics, so he needs to have a good talk with the HR manager.This time, the boss is for real.

"Yes, boss." The men and women on both sides echoed in unison.

Buffett nodded, determined in his heart that after today, he would set an example and promote one or two people to the upper echelons.

These people are middle-level people in the group, mainly responsible for behind-the-scenes data monitoring, and rarely participate in front-line management.

"There is only one paper in this issue of Nature Magazine. This paper is aimed at my finances. Everyone will give me [-]% power. I want to know within half an hour whether he is correct or not, and how influential he is."

After Buffett's words fell, the female secretary distributed a thick stack of magazines. The group subscribed to a total of ten copies, and distributed them to each office, which was not enough for each person.

Naturally, it is a highly professional magazine after all, far away from the financial circle.

The secretary was thoughtful, and ordered someone to empty the printers of the group and try to make copies of the originals. Finally, within 10 minutes, dozens of copies were collected.

After the information was in the hands of the employees on both sides, Buffett said: "Everyone on the left can check the calculation steps carefully and slowly, and everyone on the right can check the last formula. The formula is the final conclusion, and it is the most important thing."

A group of elite men and women opened the notebooks in front of them, began to calculate, and chatted with others.

Buffett sat on his seat, raised the sleeve of his suit many times to check the high-end masonry watch in his hand, and every time the second hand moved, it seemed to hit his heart.

The boss's silence made the old employees pay more attention.A chilling atmosphere permeated the meeting room.

Only Buffett understands that now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the moment of his life and death.

When stocks can be predicted, what is the meaning of his status as a stock god? He will be knocked down from the altar, and everyone will be a stock god.

His right to speak, his investment vision, is a complete joke, no one will believe him anymore, and his investment group began to collapse.

In the capital market, the stock price of the company he invested in has reached nearly 20 US dollars per share. This is the result of his decades of hard work. Shareholders spread their trust in him to bring them money.

"A share of 20 US dollars is the highest stock price in the world. Starting today, how much will it fall?"

Thinking of this, Buffett felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Could it be that after decades of hard work, he is like a clown, not worth mentioning in the eyes of mathematicians?Why does this kind of mathematician appear, and why does he want to be an enemy of the financial world.

"Why don't you make a fortune in obscurity and announce it to the world? This kind of person shouldn't exist in the world at all."

All kinds of pessimism and anger filled his mind, causing bloodshot eyes and shortness of breath.

3 minutes, 10 minutes, two 10 minutes.

"The formula has a result." Someone shouted.

Buffett, who had just taken the medicine to suppress his emotions, heard the news, his forehead was filled with blood, he covered his chest and panted wildly, and said, "Hurry up."

"80.79% accuracy."

As soon as the result was announced, everyone in the office fell silent.The probability is so high, 10 out of 8 operations are successful, even Buffett dare not say that there is such a high winning rate.

"It's over, it's over." Buffett's eyes turned black, and he was spinning.The capital empire collapsed, he seemed to see everyone in the world laughing at him, stock god...

Having seen strong winds and waves, Buffett quickly adjusted his mentality.

"Impossible, let me do the math." Buffett roared, the result was obvious, but he didn't want to believe it.

10 minutes later, the second result came out.

80.78%, almost the same as the first time.

The employee who reported was afraid that he would not be able to win the trust of the boss, and explained: "We have already calculated the stock movements of the New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, and London Index in the past three months, so there is no need to calculate it, this is the result."

Yes, never mind, no matter how many times, the only truth of scholarship, he stands the test of time.Right is right and wrong is wrong.

"It's not good, the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are open, please take a look." An employee suddenly screamed.

Buffett looked at the time. He has been busy since 8:9 in the morning, and now it is 30:[-], and the U.S. stock market opens.

The world's largest capital market, every move affects the world's financial and economic trends.

Today, the Nasdaq index fell 6.25% at the opening, and the New York Stock Exchange index fell 5.73%. There was panic in the market and everyone defended themselves.

This is a bigger crash than the 08 financial crisis, and it will be an eternal chapter in the world's financial history.

A formula, in an instant, evaporated the value of Nasdaq by 421 billion, and the value of the New York Stock Exchange by 859 billion.

"More than 1000 billion US dollars in [-], just evaporated." Buffett was heartbroken. This is because retail investors have not received the news, and the current operations are capital giants running away.

The largest investors are retail investors. After they understand the cause and effect and become more pessimistic about the capital market, then this number will increase.

"Maybe today, the US stock market has lost at least 3000 billion in market value. Why?" Buffett covered his head with a headache. "This is a global disaster. Does the author have to drag down the world economy in order to become famous?"

It's the first day, and it's just the numbers for the US.Tomorrow, more stock markets will plummet at the opening and more market value will evaporate.

This hazard will surpass previous economic crises.

The world panicked and the world shook.
