The shirtless man became even more anxious when he saw that Chen Dong didn't move. "I came to find your boss, and you're not going to help me find him? I'll go find him myself in the back."
Behind the braised food shop is their small courtyard.
Seeing that the man was about to rush in, Chen Dong quickly stepped in and blocked him inside the store.
The man used all his strength, but he couldn't budge Chen Dong even an inch.
"Explain yourself, what do you want with the boss?" Chen Dong asked.
"I......"
Just as the shirtless man was about to explain, Ah Fang came out from the back door and saw that the men in the braised food shop were all tense and looked like they were about to fight.
She asked, somewhat curiously, "What happened?"
“This man came to our braised food shop to cause trouble.” Chen Dong looked at him.
Following Chen Dong's gaze, Afang saw the man blocked at the entrance by the bald man.
"Second Uncle!"
Baldy and Chen Dong were stunned, staring intently at the man whom Afang called Second Uncle.
"Are you the boss's brother?" the bald man asked, looking him up and down.
Uncle Er smiled dismissively. "I already told you, I'm here to see the boss, but you all wouldn't listen and insisted that I was looking for trouble."
The bald man awkwardly stepped aside, saying, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
Afang's second uncle works at a bank and has hardly ever been to the braised food shop. Even when he goes to the braised food shop to see his older brother, he goes through the back door and enters through the small courtyard.
So none of the diners here recognize him.
The second uncle snorted coldly, then whispered to Afang, "Where's your dad? Tell him to come out."
“My dad went to buy spices, and I don’t know when he’ll be back,” Afang replied.
"Second Uncle, what's the matter? If it's not urgent, just let me pass on a message to him."
My second uncle shook his head and refused, "Pass on a message? What message? This is a serious matter for me, I have to discuss it with him."
Then, the second uncle sighed and quickly turned his gaze to Chen Dong, "You're that Xiao Lu, right?"
Chen Dong looked at him suspiciously, and then heard his second uncle continue, "My brother said you're really good at reading the stock market, is that true?"
Speaking of Chen Dong, the bald man's heart, which had just calmed down, started to stir again. "I can vouch for him, this guy really knows how to analyze the market!"
Although he doesn't trade stocks, his predictions about stock market fluctuations are always remarkably accurate.
Regular customers at the braised food shop chimed in, "Yes, this guy is something else, it's like he has X-ray vision."
“In his eyes, foundations, third-party institutions, short-selling institutions, investment companies, and investment banks are all the same as running naked, no matter what kind of operation they are.”
The regulars at the braised food shop are mostly bald guys.
Baldy's only hobby is stock trading. Although his wife controls the money in his pocket and he can't freely spend it, and can only argue in the braised food shop, just watching the stock market rise and fall is enough to get his blood pumping.
Because the bald man often pulled Chen Dong into the conversation about Hong Kong's financial market, the regulars at the braised food shop were quite familiar with Chen Dong.
"Just knowing how to read the overall market is enough."
The second uncle pulled Chen Dong to the only computer in the braised food shop and logged into his account.
"Please help me take a look, is it a good time to buy these gold stocks now?"
When the stock market was mentioned, Baldy got excited and quietly moved closer to the computer.
It turned out that this second uncle had come to ask for help, and Chen Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
The situation in Southeast Asia has been quite bad lately, no wonder my second uncle looked rather down when he came in.
“I bought 100 lots of futures with a brokerage firm in Southeast Asia. Now that Soros has left the market, it looks like the Federal Reserve is about to leave as well,” my second uncle said, pointing to the numbers on his computer. “The Federal Reserve has adjusted several economic policies in a row, but the effects are not obvious.”
"I think the gold stocks are doomed."
"But during this period, the price of gold has been hovering around 1670, and we don't know if it can rise again in the future."
My second uncle humbly told Chen Dong, "My main concern right now is that Soros has already left, and the Federal Reserve will soon withdraw its funds as well."
"When the Southeast Asian gold market runs out of funds to support it, the price of gold will definitely fall below the $1,600 per ounce mark very quickly."
Chen Dong has a keen sense for finance, but he usually doesn't show the stock market to his customers.
Sometimes when I encounter a few regular customers, I just remind them not to fall into a trap.
My second uncle's 100 lots of gold stocks, although a small amount, represent his entire fortune.
He invested so much money, and now that the price of gold has fallen, his second uncle is naturally anxious.
“Second Uncle, to determine when the Federal Reserve will exit the program, we first need to determine what it has been doing in Southeast Asia,” Chen Dong said.
Secondhand was stunned. Since he had bought gold index futures, and gold assets were mainly managed by the Soros Group, he hadn't really noticed the Fed's actions.
The bald man chimed in, "The Federal Open Market Committee initially touted the advantages of Southeast Asia's real estate market and capital, and promised to provide Southeast Asian governments with a complete set of financial and economic adjustment plans."
Chen Dong nodded. "The Federal Reserve's promotion of the development potential of Southeast Asian financial markets and the real economy has attracted a large number of international speculative capital to settle in."
"The purpose of this move is to raise people's optimistic expectations for the Southeast Asian financial market."
He continued, "The Fed's second action in Southeast Asia was to purchase government-backed mortgage-backed securities and a total of $1.37 trillion in Treasury bonds."
