Chapter 770: No matter how high or low the price goes, you can make money

“The God of Stocks is alive! It is said that those working in finance are the smartest people in the world. Even with such dramatic ups and downs in the market, it still can’t stop them from making a fortune!” Li Zehua held up the latest information at hand.

He was shocked when he saw a fund in the first row that invested a huge amount of US$380 billion in January and placed orders to short energy futures in major financial institutions across the United States.

“We work so hard to earn a little money, and we have to compete with Wall Street in the process. If we make a mistake, we will lose everything, while they just sit at home and move their fingers.

Not only did they not lose much, but some big institutions with inside information were able to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune?”

“After all, it’s their own territory, so it’s relatively easy to recover losses and make extra money.” Lin Wenhui beside him smiled bitterly and said, “It’s similar to our choice, small and medium-sized funds and institutions controlled by large Wall Street investment banks.

Before the funds enter the primary and secondary markets, all long orders are intercepted. The $380 billion is just the investment of one company, and there may be countless secret accounts including Goldman Sachs and Morgan.

According to our monitoring, in the last few days before the crash, there were a large number of concentrated telephone trading in both the stock market and the bond market (the U.S. market still has a large number of anonymous telephone trading channels).

On the day of the crash alone, there were abnormal and violent fluctuations that were seven or eight times the normal trading volume, especially because large investment banks matched a large number of buy and sell hedge contracts at the same time.

Without exception, those who short sell are the proprietary departments of large investment banks, and the sources of funds include many well-known American billionaires or friendly partners, as well as indescribable bigwigs.

The buying party is deceived through American public opinion channels, or is forcibly bound to third-party economic entity funds. For example, SoftBank Group was forced to contribute about US$4.5 million.

Others include the K Fund of Big Cats, the sovereign funds of big investors, and by the way, the fund companies that we exposed in the open were also deceived into investing $1.2 million. Without exception, these funds are now insolvent. “

As he spoke, he leaned forward and laughed mysteriously, “But according to reliable information, those who ran away from Dongda in recent years have suffered heavy losses. The money they deposited in American banks was fooled by various so-called professionals.

Basically, everyone lost every penny in this energy futures war.”

“So miserable?” Li Zehua was happy, “That’s really gratifying, it’s worth calling friends to have a few drinks to celebrate.

As for our loss, we just consider it as paying the toll. At least this time the US capital followed the rules and did not overturn the table. “

“Hehe, I believe this is the fate of capital, not only those who ran away from us, but also the big cats and the capital groups in Southeast Asia that we drove out.

Even some large European and American groups’ capital in the United States were deceived into taking over in large quantities. “Lin Wenhui was well-informed and knew all the top-secret inside stories that were unknown to the public.

As he was talking, he brought the topic back to how Wall Street would respond. “The Fed guy proposed a condition through an intermediary, hoping that they would cooperate for a while and not sell too much at one time.

It would be best if we could release some news together and push the price up together, creating a classic long-short double kill situation and earning more profits.”

Otherwise, it’s Wall Street, which is obsessed with making money and won’t miss any opportunity to make big money.

For example, right now, the crude oil futures prices on the New York Stock Exchange and the Chicago Stock Exchange have fallen to two circuit breakers in a row, as it approaches the last few days before the New Year at Tokyo University.

Its price has fallen from the highest of $123.5 before the crash to the current $96.25, not only setting a record of the lowest level for 65 consecutive weeks since the outbreak of the European debt crisis, but also leaving the market with endless imagination of further crashes.

If there is no sufficiently strong external force to intervene, I am afraid there will be a bloodbath in the next week. According to estimates of various economies, it may even fall below $70, which has scared some large institutions on Wall Street.

If the market continues to fall like this, not only will all their positions be liquidated and they will lose all their money, but the European economy, which has been barely held on due to high chemical and energy prices, will also be suppressed.

In particular, the German manufacturing groups collectively let out a breath of fresh air, which will have a great impact on the layout of the German oil company in Eastern Europe. In case all walks of life in the two cats enjoy the universal benefits brought by low oil prices.

Will you continue to make trouble with Zhu Pai?

At this stage, many large groups in the second cat country are arguing about the high oil prices, saying that the big cats disregard brotherly friendship and use high oil prices to make too much excess profits from the second cats.

These arguments are so popular that they have forced Big Cat to show greater sincerity in buying off Second Cat. It is also an added benefit brought by high oil prices. Big Cat’s economic situation has never been so healthy.

As a result, the big man waved his hand and directly took out 170 billion US dollars from the oil fund, plus a part of the big cat’s finances to make up 220 billion US dollars, preparing to focus on purchasing industrial equipment and other products from the second cat.

This plan aims to stabilize the employment environment of the second cat, win over the second cat, and prevent it from getting too close to the North Atlantic Public Agreement Organization (at this time, the weak big cat has agreed in principle to the second cat’s conditional joining of Europe Meng).

Everyone can see the situation, so Wall Street is also evaluating the overall impact. If oil prices are allowed to remain high, the big cat’s ambitions are bound to expand. After all, a country that relies on the export of energy and mineral resources will have money in its hands.

We must find ways to invest to ensure the stability of sales channels. This is the inevitable choice made in the face of inner uncertainty crisis!

Therefore, if Wall Street wants to fight back, it must accept the joint call of various economies to lower oil prices. Once oil prices drop, European manufacturing, which was barely suppressed, especially Hans Gaul, will rise again.

This forced Wall Street to speed up its actions. Secretly, support from American capital arrived at Husky and Ermao as soon as possible. With massive financial support, opposition forces within the two economies quickly jumped out to make trouble.

In Li Zehua’s view, things that were originally going to happen a year later may now break out ahead of time, because the external environment has changed dramatically, forcing American capital to take action ahead of time.

To put it bluntly, the cooking faction is now in a dilemma. It is difficult to offend the public anger in the futures market, so it simply sells short crazily in private, and even resorts to all means that damage its credit to force all parties to retain capital groups with large assets in the United States.

To pay for the massive long positions they held earlier, big investors have expressed their grievances at this point, because since the outbreak of the European debt crisis, they have been looking for a new leader to transfer risks.

The big investors established a $500 billion sovereign investment fund in New York. Later, under the threats and temptations of the cooking faction, the scale of this fund continued to expand, reaching around $ billion at one point.

In order to please the United States and seek protection, the big investors also agreed to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in related American industries in the next five years and to list Aramco on the New York Stock Exchange.

As a result, when they received the money, they made good promises, but they never expected that Wall Street would slap the big investors in the face. In the previous raw material futures war, large Wall Street institutions lost hundreds of billions of dollars in principal, so they couldn’t help but take action in advance.

A portion of the investment shares were taken away from the big investors’ funds to fill the investment plans that suffered heavy losses. This time it was even more excessive. Under the planning of the cooking faction, the big investors initially signed an energy futures hedging plan of about 400 billion US dollars in a confused manner.

There is nothing wrong with using it to balance and share risks, but in the end, the U.S. capital was too lazy to even put on an act and simply sent an email as a notification, and then blatantly authorized professional managers to invest in U.S. oil.

The targets of taking over happened to be those long positions that the American capital had left behind and could not handle before, when the big investors arrived with clear authorization documents and hurried to New York to stop it.

I’m sorry, a small half of the money in the sovereign fund has been directly pledged. If it comes slower, I’m afraid that all of Wall Street’s investment losses this time will be offset by the money from the big sovereign funds.

A prince, a big investor who tried to stop the incident, was so angry that he nearly exploded on the spot. After some investigation, he realized that the tricks of Wall Street were so complicated that ordinary people could hardly imagine them.

For example, any project in which a sovereign fund invests more than 5000 million US dollars requires the signatures of the president appointed by the major investor and the head of the major investor’s finance department. But some people simply circumvent this restriction.

They directly used the high-quality projects that the sovereign fund had already invested in to apply for additional funds from large banks such as Citibank to avoid supervision by personnel sent by large investors, and then continuously signed crude oil purchase agreements with a scale of less than 5000 million US dollars.

By the time they found out, the wealthy prince was so angry that he laughed. Thousands of agreements worth $4999 million filled up the bank safe. There was no way to go back on his word because everything was legal and compliant.

It didn’t exceed 50 million US dollars, and secondary mortgage investment is the business scope of professional managers. It’s just that they chose the wrong direction. As for the bet agreements signed with certain specific large institutions?

completely fine!
Because apart from large institutions, no one in the market has such a buying position. This is a rare commodity and no one dares to buy it except for a psychopath.

No matter how furious the prince of a wealthy family is, it is useless today, because he is not as skilled as others, and getting angry will only make people laugh, and it will not change the situation at all. In addition to taking the direct person who handled it and the exposed middleman to an altitude of 10,000 meters to fly a kite to test whether the human body is correct for attracting lightning, there is not much that other wealthy families can do.

After filling the management loopholes of the sovereign investment fund, the big investors had to suffer the loss regardless of their wishes. However, when the news got back to China, the big investors immediately decided to cut their original investment of US$100 billion in the American market by half.

In addition, Aramco canceled its listing in the United States and temporarily planned to list on the stock exchange of the major domestic companies. This gave Dongda room for maneuver. People were sent to lobby for listing in the Hong Kong market…

“Mr. Li agreed. The remaining European and traditional American capital is no problem. The loss this time is so huge that we must make up for it from other economies, such as Chicken with a Foot Basin, Korean and White Elephant.”

In the Federal Reserve meeting room in New York, several people were exchanging information quickly with their heads down. As the head of the family, Bob, against all odds, stated his plan, “Don’t let the big investors and big cats go either.

Give orders to mobilize all propaganda tools to promote the idea that energy prices are about to collapse and attract investors from all over the world to short the market.

Wait until the scale reaches a certain level, and then catch them all in one fell swoop.

In addition, we must inform the secondary and tertiary markets (the crude oil trading markets of other economies) that the long positions must leave enough shares for Wall Street, otherwise everyone will die together and no one will be able to live in peace. “

Bob was very resentful, but he didn’t know who to take revenge on for a while, because he was fighting with Ou Meng and couldn’t add any more chips. He couldn’t just send Mold over to start the fight directly, right?

As for turning to deal with Todai and Southeast Asia, I’m sorry, no matter how powerful an individual is, he cannot stretch out both hands at the same time, fight against two evenly matched opponents in two directions and win.

Especially in this conference room, there are a lot of Hans’ descendants. They know better than anyone how Hans, who was once the best in Europe, was stuck in the quagmire of fighting on two fronts and was dragged to death!

So in the end, the few people couldn’t argue out a better plan, and Bob could only curse fiercely: “Let it run rampant for a few days, and wait until the European layout is successful, and then take back the power at the crossroads of Asia and the Mesopotamian Basin.

It’s time to block it completely.”

Tommy, the actual controller of the Federal Savings Bank who had suffered a great loss before, looked relieved, “No need to be so troublesome. If you want to deal with Dongda, there is a better and more convenient way.”

There were no fools present, and someone immediately responded: “The RMB has been exported on a large scale. As of today, more than 3.5 trillion RMB swap agreements have been in effect.

In fact, more than 2.3 trillion RMB has flowed out of Dongda, with Southeast Asia being its main destination.”

“Then the conditions for investing in the Dongda stock market, Hong Kong and Singapore’s Chinese concept stocks market are ripe.” Bob understood immediately, “Previously, investing in the Dongda market was subject to foreign exchange control regulations.

Invest 1 million and earn million, but it will take ten years to convert all the currency back. Now the RMB of Dongda has gone abroad, and their central bank and finance department have the next decoupling plan.

Perhaps in the next one or two years, more than 5 trillion RMB, or even more, will continue to flow out of the country. By then, even if there is still internal control at Dongda, it will not affect our continued long positions in the stock market and bond market to obtain enough RMB. “

“Hey, as long as the scale is large enough, there are many things that can be done.” Tommy smiled beside him, “In 97/98, they only had 7 to billion US dollars in foreign exchange reserves, but now they have more than trillion US dollars in reserves.

Once we get enough RMB, we will launch long positions in the stock market, bond market, foreign exchange market, and an industry that has stopped development but has accumulated a large amount of deposited funds in the early stages, and cooperate with external joint encirclement and suppression at critical moments.

A fatal blow would be enough to cause the RMB to collapse directly, and the profits earned by then would inevitably be settled in trillions of US dollars, which would be enough to earn the huge profits when the big cats split up.”

(In fact, it is more than 8.5 trillion US dollars, of which about 3.5 trillion US dollars are foreign currencies retained in the accounts of various financial institutions in the East, including US dollars, euros, pounds and yen.

Qingyun Group, HSBC, Singapore financial institutions, and micropayment internet financial accounts have more than one trillion US dollars, Hong Kong dollars, and Singapore dollars.

The remaining approximately 3 trillion US dollars are funds deposited by enterprises and financial institutions in third-party financial institutions in various forms such as investment, unsettled foreign exchange, guarantees, loan mortgages, etc.
Everyone present was moved when they heard his plan.

Because Todai itself really revealed its flaws.

They have been wanting to short Dongda for a long time. Even though they only had one channel in Hong Kong and a capital of only 400 to 500 billion RMB, they were still being targeted by Wall Street every day.

Nowadays, RMB is exported overseas on a large scale. In fact, it is clear without any investigation, because no matter how the data released by the Central Bank of the Central Bank of China is compressed, it cannot hide its huge size.

If you want to blame someone, blame the industrial upgrade, which was successful at least five years earlier than the original time and space. There was no one dragging it down, so it was indeed going smoothly, but being too smooth is not always a good thing.

Ordinary people may not feel it, but those who control capital, especially entrepreneurs who have risen by relying on foreign trade, increasingly feel that the crisis is imminent!

Because the total amount of RMB issued by the central bank cannot keep up with the pace of economic development, this is a very dangerous signal!
No matter what you choose, there will be endless troubles.

If we do not hard decouple from the US dollar as an anchor and continue to issue RMB at the current exchange rate of 1 to 8, there will only be one result, which is a surge in domestic labor costs in the University of Tokyo.

Because Dongda’s production capacity has exploded, its productivity is almost equal to the sum of Europe and the United States. In addition, Qingyun Group continues to layout in the mid-to-high-end market. In fact, Dongda’s industrial chain no longer has any development shortcomings and limitations.

This further leads to the fact that the products produced by Dongda have unrivaled competitiveness in the world, which is not a good thing because the RMB does not have the right to participate in international trade settlement.

Europe, the United States and Japan will not give up this power easily. If they cannot directly use RMB to settle goods, they must rely on mainstream currencies such as the US dollar, which is equivalent to giving the initiative to the United States.

The best outcome of cooperation between the two sides would naturally be close relations, that is, the Federal Reserve would change the credit basis for issuing US dollars to one bound to the productivity of the University of Tokyo. The problem is that the Federal Reserve would eat up all excess profits.

So it is doomed to fail.

There is only one result left: the Federal Reserve cannot (and will not) supply enough US dollars to the market without the credit endorsement provided by the University of Eastern Europe.

Conversely, the scarcity of the US dollar will inevitably force the whole world to force the University of International Business and Economics to either restrict the development of its own productivity or to wildly appreciate the RMB until a balance is reached with the US dollar, productivity, and foreign trade.

Wall Street thinks that a ratio of one to two is pretty good, and then the labor costs of the University of Tokyo will soar to an alarming level, and the productivity that has not yet completed the transformation from quantity to quality will inevitably fail.

Everything that happened to Big Cat fell upon Dongda University. The exchange rate plummeted, and all the hard-earned wealth of everyone was ruthlessly harvested by Europe and the United States through the exchange rate difference.

Therefore, the University of Tokyo must achieve a hard decoupling, control the freedom of issuing RMB, and allow RMB to actively go global and participate in free settlement of international trade.

Even if the majority of the country were to oppose it, it would not be able to stop this process (the issuance of RMB at a rate of 10-20% per year would dilute the price of existing assets, which is equivalent to passive impairment).

Because if they don’t send it, everyone will die together.

By issuing and expanding the total size of the pool, except for the foreign trade industry which will be damaged, everyone else can continue to survive. This is essentially no different from transfer payments.

Faced with a move of this magnitude, slightly stronger economies are well aware of the situation. For example, American capital is ready to follow the express train of this unprecedented asset surge.

First, go long on all Dongda’s assets, and then before Ermao completes his layout to suppress Ou Meng, Moldy will fully recover his strength, and then turn around and go short before he can punch out.

Regardless of whether the price goes up or down, you will make a profit… (End of this chapter)
