Yi Anguo was extremely dejected, feeling as if he'd gotten off to a bad start. In his first foray into trading international oil futures, it seemed highly likely he was headed for a complete defeat.
Indeed, the risks of the futures market were not so easily managed. Even for a reincarnator with a rough grasp of the trends in international oil prices, he had still underestimated the market's uncontrollable risks.
For instance, it was quite normal for oil prices to fluctuate by one to two US dollars daily. No one could know for certain whether the price would move up or down by a dollar or two at any given time.
"Shut down the computer. I'm taking you out to eat. By the time we get back, maybe my luck will have turned," Yi Anguo said, unable to bear the sight of his disastrous losses.
Ding Jing glanced at the market screen. The price of international crude oil had shot up to $50.43 per barrel. She knew he was just trying to save face and couldn't bring himself to admit defeat.
