Returning to his senior year of high school, he went all in and made billions by buying at the botto

For the next few days, Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School enjoyed a rare period of peace and tranquility.

Chen Mo seemed to have truly become an ordinary senior high school student again, going to and from school on time every day, and joking and teasing with Su Qingyan during breaks when he had nothing to do. Their life was harmonious and joyful, and their tacit understanding and unspoken ambiguity quietly spread in the early winter campus.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, Deer Technology's equipment imports are proceeding in an orderly manner, and Xingxin Mining has officially begun full-scale mining operations.

Everything was proceeding according to the path set by Chen Mo.

Soon, the third school-wide monthly exam arrived as scheduled.

For ordinary students, this is a crucial practice run before the college entrance examination.

The entire teaching building of the No. 1 Middle School was so quiet you could hear a pin drop; a suffocating atmosphere permeated the air.

However, for Chen Mo, this kind of senior high school exam paper was simply no challenge at all.

He wrote in every subject with ease and without any hindrance.

October 27th, afternoon.

The last science exam of the month was halfway through.

Inside the classroom, Chen Mo casually capped his pen and glanced at his completed test paper.

He then turned his head to look at the withered yellow leaves outside the window, and glanced at Su Qingyan, who was sitting diagonally in front of him, her eyebrows furrowed and biting the tip of her pen with some impatience.

Chen Mo smiled faintly, stood up, and grabbed the test paper and answer sheet.

"Teacher, I'm handing in my paper."

The sound suddenly rang out in the quiet classroom.

The proctor was startled and subconsciously glanced at his watch—there was still a full hour left before the exam ended!

"Whoosh—!"

The students in the examination room all looked up, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Lin Yu's hand trembled, and the pen tip almost tore a large gash in the draft paper.

Su Qingyan bit her lower lip in exasperation, raised her beautiful peach blossom eyes, and glared fiercely at this unreliable guy.

Couldn't this person be a little more discreet at school?!

Chen Mo, facing a crowd of gazes, slung his backpack over his shoulder and turned to walk gracefully out of the examination hall.

It's not that he's deliberately being high-profile; it's because today is a day of wealth reshuffling that will go down in the annals of world financial history for the world's top capital giants and hedge fund magnates!

The Black Waterfall in Vienna.

As Lin Wan walked out of the county's No. 1 High School, she had already asked someone to take the Hummer H2 to the shade of a tree by the roadside.

Chen Mo opened the car door, got into the driver's seat, stepped on the gas, and drove towards Guanlan Royal View Villa.

Although his driver's license hadn't been issued yet, the license plate had already been registered in the public security system, so no one would be foolish enough to stop him.

Twenty minutes later, inside the 16 villas.

Chen Mo pulled the heavy blackout curtains shut and turned on the encrypted terminal.

The intraday candlestick chart for the WTI crude oil 1501 main contract is currently stuck in a weak sideways consolidation around $80.

At this time in the international crude oil market, bullish hedge funds and major resource oligarchs were still frantically supporting the market on the left side, accumulating countless shares.

They are all making crazy bets, betting that Saudi Arabia will never tolerate oil prices falling below $80 in order to maintain its fiscal balance.

Chen Mo kept staring at the screen and didn't even notice Lin Wan coming in to pour him tea until late at night Beijing time.

Far away in Vienna, Austria, the OPEC ministerial meeting, which had been held behind closed doors for a full day, finally issued its final official statement.

No production cuts!

Saudi Arabia has completely overturned the table!

In order to completely destroy the US's rapidly rising shale oil industry, Saudi Arabia even announced that it would expand its daily crude oil exports at all costs, using a bottomless price war to turn the intersection of new and traditional energy sources into ruins!

The moment the message popped up, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In an instant, the global commodity market collapsed!

The intraday candlestick chart for crude oil shows a sharp, vertical drop, resembling a waterfall!

The $80 mark was breached instantly!

$78, $75... Short sellers' hedging orders and forced liquidations were frantically stampeding through the exchange's trading pool!

$70! Breaking the record!

$68! Breaking the record!

The bulls suffered heavy losses across the board, with cries of despair echoing everywhere!

Until the early hours of the morning, with the extreme release of pent-up demand, crude oil reached an all-time low of $66.15!

Chen Mo finally moved, his slender fingers beginning to tap continuously.

In his overseas independent trust account, he had 4050 short positions in crude oil at a high of $80.15, leveraged 10 times and fully shorted the market. The moment the price fell to $66.15, he perfectly closed out all positions with a profit!

An incredible interest rate differential of a whopping $14!

4050 lots, each lot equals 1000 barrels of crude oil!

With the massive leverage of 10x, this short selling strategy directly netted Chen Mo a pure profit of $5670 million!

One night later, the total assets in his offshore accounts skyrocketed to $8920 million!

Based on the official fixed exchange rate of around 6.15 at the end of 2014, this sum of money had reached 5.5 million yuan in just half a month!

"call--"

Chen Mo closed the terminal, slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

The night outside Jiangcheng County was as dark as ink. Facing the early winter night wind, Chen Mo took a few deep breaths, and his raging heartbeat gradually calmed down.

A string of numbers in an offshore account is enough to ensure that any ordinary person can live comfortably for several lifetimes, but for Chen Mo, it is far from enough. As someone who controls the future financial world, what he wants is far more than that.

Chen Mo turned around and sat back down in front of the terminal.

He rested his chin on his hand, his gaze fixed on the crude oil candlestick chart on the screen, which had now calmed down. Crude oil prices would continue to fall, but for him, it was still too slow.

"Crude oil prices plummeted from $80 to $66 overnight, causing massive losses for Wall Street bulls. But the first to succumb to this energy tsunami will definitely not be American shale oil producers, but rather the polar bear that is extremely dependent on energy exports and has a single-sector economy."

Chen Mo clearly remembered that in December 2014 of his previous life, there was a black swan event that shocked the world—the ruble crisis!

The brutal economic sanctions imposed by the West due to the Crimean crisis, coupled with tonight's oil price collapse, will deal a double blow, potentially draining Russia's foreign exchange reserves in an instant.

The ruble is about to face an epic credit collapse and a massive devaluation!

In Chen Mo's memory, the exchange rate of US dollars to rubles at that time was still hovering around the resistance line of 50.

However, once December arrives, as the negative impact of the oil price crash fully takes effect, the ruble will depreciate wildly like a kite with a broken string, until the Black Tuesday of December 16, which terrified global capital markets, when the US dollar to ruble exchange rate will be hammered down by short sellers to an unbelievable high of nearly 80!

The avalanche was only barely stopped when the Russian central bank announced special measures, drastically increasing the benchmark interest rate from 10.5% to 17%.

In other words, from now until around December 16th, there is a staggering interest rate differential of nearly 30 between the US dollar and the ruble!

With that in mind, Chen Mo didn't hesitate at all. His fingers flew across the keyboard, directly bringing up the foreign exchange derivatives trading interface of Merrill Lynch's overseas seats.

10x leverage, go all-in on a long position in USD/RUB!

He leveraged the $8920 million he had just earned in the crude oil market at a maximum leverage of 10, drawing on nearly $9 million in nominal foreign exchange assets, and began to operate wildly!

Although the international foreign exchange market is the world's largest liquidity pool, with a daily trading volume of trillions of US dollars, a mere 9 million US dollars is nothing more than a ripple.

However, to avoid attracting the attention of Russian government foreign exchange magnates and top Western hedge funds, Chen Mo did not choose to make a large investment in one go.

He skillfully activated the order splitting algorithm inside the terminal, breaking down this position of nearly $9 million into tens of thousands of irregular tiny buy orders, and began to erode the forward long contracts of USD/RUB through dark pools in several cross-border financial centers such as London, New York, and Singapore.

"Tap, tap, tap, tap..."

In the quiet study, the underfloor heating was warm and cozy, with only the rhythmic tapping of Chen Mo's keyboard filling the air.

The night grew darker.

3 a.m., 4 a.m., 5 a.m....

After nearly a night of staying up all night, Chen Mo sat quietly in front of the screen, his eyes bloodshot, but his spirits were incredibly high.

This kind of investment, which involves knowing the future trend, is incredibly addictive; every order you place will eventually yield multiple times the return.

Until the first rays of dawn appear.

A hint of fatigue finally flashed in Chen Mo's eyes, and on the screen, the position was finally at 100%.

After nearly a night of working through the night, Chen Mo finally completed all the long positions.

Next, we simply wait for the flowers to bloom.
