CHAPTER 1288: CHAPTER 440: A DAY DESTINED FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS (PART 2)

In the past, at this time, before the stock market opened, everyone would sit together and chat, talk about which night club they went to last night, and what kind of women they met.

But today, the atmosphere within the company is obviously off, everyone has a heavy expression on their face.

Usually, they wouldn’t pick up the phone on their desk and proactively call anyone until the market opened, nor would potential clients proactively call them.

To put it simply, on other days, the calls here are always outgoing, rarely incoming.

But today, they’re all incoming.

Even though it’s not yet time for work.

"Understood, rest assured, I will keep an eye on Deep Sea Bank’s stocks for you, as soon as there’s a sale, I’ll immediately help you purchase!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Deep Sea Bank stocks, 100 shares, no problem, I’ll definitely get them for you."

"That’s other companies, don’t you know about our company’s strength? You can rest assured about Deep Sea Bank’s stocks!"

On the way back to his desk, Bass Orlando heard all his colleagues discussing purchasing Deep Sea Bank stock with their clients.

Although the news about Deep Sea Bank’s IPO didn’t receive much publicity, as the largest unicorn company in the United States, many investors are still very interested in this company.

Now everyone wants to buy this company’s stock.

Bass Orlando hadn’t even made it back to his desk before he heard the phone there ringing incessantly.

If it were any other day, Bass Orlando would have been very excited, but now...

It’s clearly those who want to buy Deep Sea Bank stock and fantasize about getting rich overnight.

"Mr. James, yes, yes, yes, I understand, Deep Sea Bank stock, right? You want to buy 1000 shares? No problem, rest assured, our company’s strength, my ability, these are things you shouldn’t doubt!"

If it were in the past, hearing them wanting to buy 1000 shares at a price of 18 US Dollars per share, Bass Orlando would have jumped up in joy.

After all, there’s a commission in it for him.

But now, these people can only dream.

The problem right now isn’t that Deep Sea Bank stocks can’t be bought, but that they can’t be bought at the issued price.

Being in a brokerage firm, Bass Orlando understands one thing very well: brokerage firms are like distributors; any stocks must pass through their hands.

Take Deep Sea Bank for instance, its issued stock price is 18 US Dollars, and after being acquired by their brokerage firm, they will take different measures based on the price fluctuation of Deep Sea Bank’s stock.

In this measure, they will have a stable plan.

For example, how many Deep Sea Bank shares should be sold when the stock price reaches a certain level.

Moreover, there’s also an art to whom these stocks are sold to.

For stockbrokers like Bass Orlando, the shares of Deep Sea Bank allocated to them are very limited, and for his clients... anyway, he’s always sure he’ll be able to get Deep Sea Bank stocks, and when the time comes and he can’t, there will always be an excuse.

Moreover, Bass Orlando knows something that ordinary people don’t: a lot of consortia are actually eyeing Deep Sea Bank stocks, and they aren’t planning to play the role of middlemen; they genuinely see the potential in Deep Sea Bank’s growth and want to invest long term.

This type of person isn’t going to sell their Deep Sea Bank stocks, and the amount they acquire certainly isn’t small.

"Orlando!"

As Bass Orlando was pondering these matters, his colleague next to him, after hanging up the phone, directly kicked Bass Orlando’s chair with a mysterious look.

"What’s up?"

Bass Orlando was used to his coworker’s behavior and asked without concern.

"Just got some insider info, a few investment companies on Wall Street just now pooled together 250 million US Dollars to purchase 10 million shares of Deep Sea Bank."

"250 million US Dollars?" Even Bass Orlando, who was experienced with such matters, was very surprised.

"Since when did these people have so much money?"

The other person shook his head: "Didn’t you notice the wave of stock sell-offs in the market a few days ago? These people were all secretly gathering funds, I have a feeling today will go down in the history of Wall Street, no, in the history of the entire United States!"

Bass Orlando did not deny this, the IPO of Deep Sea Bank was destined to be recorded in the annals of history long before.

"Another formidable opponent, huh!"

"Yeah, the boss was previously thinking about buying 1 million shares of Deep Sea Bank stocks, I guess it won’t be possible anymore!"

"I heard Cleveland also came over with a large sum of money, is that true?"

"It’s true, it’s confirmed, and they were smart, depositing the funds in Breton Bank, Morgan Bank, and Mellon Bank. With this sum in these three banks, I estimate they’ll start with at least 10 million shares!"

"What do you think today’s trading volume in the stock market will reach?"

"I don’t dare to imagine, but it will definitely be an astronomical number! By the way, did you buy the stocks I told you about before?"

"I did, buying Deep Sea Bank stocks at this point is impossible, can only turn the attention to the listed companies under Venus Bank Holdings, I believe after today, they will surely experience a surge!"
