Jack Somnus was a mid-wealth professor of economics and a trading advisor for the powerful Johnson family. But after years of working for the Johnsons, he was abandoned without a word. He was laid off without as much as a severence package. Jack's life got worse when he lost his wife. Depressed and alone, he got into an unfortunate accident. Instead of dying, he travels back in time to his teenage years. Now, Jack has a second chance to live the life he always wanted. He wants to be the one who controls, not the one being controlled. But his time travel hides a deeper secret, one that might throw him for a loop. [WARNING: CONTAINS EXPLICIT EROTIC SCENES] ... PS. Investment Empire Building / Confident MC / MC is not the only smart character DISCLAIMER: The similarity in names of characters in this novel to those of real world individuals is purely a coincidence This story is set in the same universe as my first novel, "Evolution of Genius: every night, I get smarter!", however, reading this novel doesn't require you to have any knowledge about the other.

Squeeze

As the price has moved more than 10% within a 5-minute window, the stock has been halted for volatility.

DING!DING!DING!

I got a call.

I grabbed my phone. It was Mark.

"Jack! Are you seeing this?!" Mark's voice crackled through the phone.

"Yeah, Mark, I see it... It was only a matter of time."

"They're getting torched! There is no way we are taking profits. We will let them stew," Mark said. "What about your funds? Are you holding or cashing out?"

"For now, I'm just watching." I said, my eyes glued to the screen. "This could be the squeeze of the year. I'm not selling a single share today. They have millions of shares to cover and no sellers. Let them drive the price up themselves."

"Fuuuck, Jack! This is insane. We have to celebrate this. Night party at my house—Danny's getting the coke. We're going to be fucking snorting lines all night."

"Mark... do you ever show up to work sober?"
