The Rise and Fall of the Young Stock God: A Single Margin Call That Reduced His Nine-Figure Wealth to Zero

In recent years, a young stock god rapidly accumulated a nine-figure fortune through high-leverage trading strategies, but three fatal mistakes caused his wealth to evaporate instantly. According to reports from the "Finance Weekly," on April 2, 2023, President Trump's tariff policies devastated global financial markets, leading to significant declines in the Taiwanese stock market. The immediate occurrence of margin calls resulted in substantial losses for many investors.
In this market crash, the Citic U.S. Treasury 20-Year ETF also unexpectedly defaulted, leaving even seasoned fund managers, who relied on hedge strategies, unable to escape disaster. Meanwhile, young stock gods' leveraged trading failed to manage risks effectively, leading to catastrophic consequences. Through several case studies, it was discovered that these young investors commonly used excessive leverage but were unable to withstand sudden market fluctuations.
Furthermore, the report highlighted that these young investors' disregard for risk and their concentration in investments left them defenseless against market shocks. The combination of these factors resulted in an untenable asset collapse.
