American Fortune Life

After sending Ivana to the CP Building, he turned a corner and came to Wall Street. After the car was parked in the underground parking lot, Andy took the elevator with Joseph and Kenny to the Gaia Investment Consulting Company on the 20th floor. As for Liberty City Investment Company, which did not go to the 19th floor first, it was because several important managers of Liberty City would come upstairs for a meeting soon.

Today, Andy convened the executives of the two companies, which was held for the upcoming real estate bubble burst this year.

Andy walked quickly to his office in Gaia Consulting. This was the first time he used it since the renovation was completed. The little secretary was a lady with glasses, with brown hair and white skin. She looked about 165 cm, but her figure was well proportioned, and her legs were relatively slender. , the collar of the shirt is wide open, and a pair of obviously squeezed out gullies are very attractive. When he saw Andy coming, he stood up hurriedly, with heavy makeup on his face, especially the black eye shadow, which made Andy frowned slightly .

"what's your name?"

"Good morning, boss. I'm your secretary, Tory Black." The little girl was a little nervous, and hurriedly bowed slightly to greet her. The gully was revealed in front of Andy's eyes.

"Ahem... I don't like your eye shadow, it's too dark, and the collar of your shirt is too open... Bring me a cappuccino and call Alvitre."

Andy coughed lightly, waved his hands, pushed open the two office doors wrapped in black leather with both hands, and spoke quickly.

"Ah... yes, good boss, I'll send it to you right away..." Tory Black was almost scared to death by the boss's dislike. As a freshman who has just studied secretarial for two years, he can find it on Wall Street. This kind of decent job can also work as a secretary for the famous young billionaire Andy Smith. To be honest, she also knows why. Of course, there is no advantage in language. There are too many secretaries who can speak multiple languages.

Tory Black was ready to be blessed by Andy. The carefully prepared makeup not only failed to attract the favor of the boss, but made him dislike it. Now she felt like crying.

Joseph and Kenny were sitting on the sofa in the guest lounge area opposite the secretary's office area. They couldn't help shaking their heads and laughing as they watched the little wild cat in high-heeled shoes scrambling around.

Joseph kindly reminded: "You call Alvetrie first, and then make coffee..."

"Ah...thank you, I'll call right away..." Tory Black pinned his long, wavy hair behind his ears, raised his head, and thanked him with a blushing face.

Soon, Al took his assistant and came to Andy's office quickly, pushed the door and walked in, and Tory Black, holding a cup of cappuccino, stepped on the door with small steps and followed. to the office.

Tory Blake put the coffee on Andy's desk nervously. After glancing at her, Andy asked Al, "Do you want coffee or tea?"

"Coffee, thank you." Al said with a smile to the glasses girl secretary.

"Okay, it will be ready soon." After finishing speaking, he ran out of the office in small steps.

Andy couldn't help shaking his head, and asked Al: "Why did you find a new person?"

Al shrugged and said: "Her tasks are mainly to answer the phone, send documents and so on, no professional knowledge is required, besides...hehe."

Andy looked at Al who was winking at him speechlessly. This gay guy dared to slander him so much. He rolled his eyes and said, "Did you bring the picture you mentioned?"

Upon hearing this question, Alvitley sat upright and took out a folder from his purse, and handed it to the boss.

"To test your hypothesis, I did a lot of basic research with a group of think tanks, and the final result is this simple chart of the U.S. house price index since 1975, stripped of inflation,

From 1975 to 2000, the annual growth rate of housing prices was only 1.4%, but in the next five years, the annual growth rate was 7%. If it returns to the trend line, the possible adjustment range of housing prices can reach a maximum of 40%! "

Andy opened the folder, looked at the chart above, raised his head, his eyes flashed with brilliance, after listening to Al's statement, he turned his eyes to the chart in his hand again, and said lightly: "Then I can put this Picture as my Rosetta Stone, right?"

"If you really want to do that, then this chart can be used as a basis for fundamentals!" Alvitley took a deep breath and replied in a deep tone.

"So what do you think of my hypothesis? Do you still stick to your original point of view?" Andy closed the folder, took a sip of coffee, watched the little secretary who pushed the door in and handed the coffee to Al, and then He said to the nervous little secretary standing aside: "Go out, don't let anyone disturb our conversation."

"Okay, boss."

Hearing the sound of the office door closing, Arvette said with a somewhat tangled expression: "I really hope your hypothesis is just a hypothesis, but it seems that the possibility of happening is over 90%. I agree with you to put all your eggs in one basket and short the U.S. real estate market!"

Andy laughed softly, then stood up from his seat, walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, faced the warm winter sun, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "For a mature investor, any re-bet, Both need to consider two factors: certainty and benefit ratio.

For the former, solid and rigorous fundamental analysis is required, while for the latter, timing and tools need to be considered.

U.S. real estate prices have not fallen across the country since the Great Depression. "House prices will always rise" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even if it is a little weak now, most people think it is just a short-term adjustment. Let alone others, even The real estate company of my girlfriend's family is still hoarding land, and the inventory is astonishingly large. This is a domino that is about to collapse. If one falls, the whole game will be lost. . . "

To be honest, Andy has been waiting for the arrival of 2007 since time travel. All he did before was just to prepare enough ammunition for the feast of 2007.

At the same time, because he discovered some differences in the world, he was also worried about whether some things would happen. Fortunately, the historical development trajectory with high similarity made him let go of some worries. Whether it was the rise or fall of Apple stock, except for some specific figures Different, the general trend remains the same.

Of course, he is also worried about whether the subprime mortgage crisis that happened in his previous life will appear in this life, so since his think tank was successfully formed, apart from participating in the negotiation of Facebook shares, the rest of his time and energy are for them to verify himself Said a hypothesis - the US real estate collapse.

Alvetrie and the others felt unbelievable or a little ridiculous about this assumption at first, but with the integration of each piece of information, after all, the required information is not advanced, and the only thing that needs to be paid is manpower and time. , a trend chart composed of red and blue lines is sorted out.

The people in the think tank are all financial elites. They are very clear about what this picture shows. The boss's hypothesis is likely to become a reality, and the boss's wealth will increase exponentially.
