Life at the Top

Over the past two days, the United States stock market, which was turbulent and rocked by a major disaster, suddenly fell silent.

This silence made people feel as though an avalanche or tsunami that was bound to happen had suddenly stopped at its peak.

It was weird and very unusual.

The financial policy institutions of most countries in the world, as well as the financial think tanks of major companies, and the professors and students of economic schools were all paying close attention to the strange stillness of the United States stock market. They knew this calm would not last long, and that it might soon be broken.

Once it broke, there would inevitably be the biggest change in the history of finance.

This would not only affect the development of the global economy, it would also be a landmark event in the history of modern human economics. Many top professionals felt extremely excited and nervous about being able to personally experience it.

What changed this situation was an announcement jointly issued by the United States’ highest department of finance and the Federal Reserve.

“In view of the current irrational turbulence in the stock market, the United States stock market is closed for 3 working days.”

The short sentence directly caused FTSE from the United Kingdom, the Nikkei Index from Sunrise Land, and DAX from Germany to plummet.

Three working days and a weekend in which no trading is done, which meant it would be 5 more days before any trading could happen. The fiercest war would come after a peaceful ending.

“They are trying to lock me in the United States stock market. In other words, it is impossible for me to admit defeat and exit the market now.”
