"Feng Yu, I remember you told me that there are more financial speculators in the United States and the capital market is bigger. If you want to speculate in energy futures, won't they?"
"And their capital is much greater than yours, right? There are many more wealthy people in the United States than in China. Your capital is not enough to speculate in the US dollar, right?"
Hearing Zhang Ruiqiang's question, Feng Yu said with a smile: "The United States, there are more speculators in the United States than in Europe as a whole. Even many European wealthy people also like to invest in the American market."
"You see that the financial market in the United States is very prosperous and there is a lot of capital. You think I can't win, right?"
Zhang Ruiqiang asked, "Can you still win? Although I don't know much about financial investment, but like you said, controlling the rise and fall of prices, then the competition is about who has more funds, right?"
"You can use leverage, and they can also use it. You can lead a large number of people to follow suit, but why can't they? And there are so many people who are looking forward to pulling you down from your position as the world's richest man."
"If we compare purely with cash flow, we are indeed at a disadvantage. But what if the U.S. capital market has problems of its own?" Feng Yu looked at Zhang Ruiqiang with a smile.
"You have a problem? What problem can there be? You know better than me how prosperous the U.S. stock market is, right? Even many of our state-owned investment companies are investing in the U.S. stock market and can make a lot of money every day."
State-owned assets are also following the example of Europe and the United States, investing pension funds and other funds to make money. Because the pensions paid out every year are already rising, and the rate of increase is greater than the rate of collection.
What's more, if money is placed in the bank and earns interest, including normal inflation, it is a devaluation in itself. If the investment is done well, it is possible to double the principal.
In that case, not only will there be no need to increase the amount of pensions paid by residents, but more pensions can be paid to retirees, which is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
There are risks in doing so. That is, once this investment loses money, it will be a big deal.
Fortunately, in recent years, not only the economic situation in Europe and the United States has been very good, but also the economic situation in China is very good, and most investments are making money.
Especially in the past two years, I have made more money.
"Are state-owned funds still investing in the U.S. stock market? What are the main investment directions?"
But you can't lose money from state-owned assets when you're tossing around in the U.S. stock market.
"Our investments are relatively conservative, and they are all big companies in the United States, the Fortune 500. They may not rise as fast as some emerging companies, but they are more stable. They include energy, real estate, electronics, networks, automobiles, There are many kinds of food, etc., spread out very widely, so that even if the stock falls quickly, you won't lose a lot."
Feng Yu frowned: "Didn't I tell you that investing in real estate is not recommended?"
"It's not an investment like buying a property, we just buy real estate-related stocks."
"Be prepared. Before May Day, sell all real estate-related stocks. The same goes for cars. Then gradually sell electronics, Internet, food, etc., and by the end of May, sell all energy stocks. Lose."
Zhang Ruiqiang didn't understand: "Why are you selling them all? Even if one industry falls, it can't be that all industries fall? Besides, didn't you say you want to raise the price of energy futures? Then shouldn't the stocks of energy companies be the right ones? Is it a big rise?”
"Lao Zhang, every industry has linkages. You think they belong to different categories. If one kind of decline may not affect other industries, but if several consecutive declines, especially those blue chip stocks that lead the rise, then the entire The stock market will fall."
"If you go back and ask them to study the Internet bubble a few years ago, the stocks of only two large companies began to fall. Then what? The entire U.S. stock market collapsed, which also had a serious impact on the entire world's financial markets. A large amount of money was either short-sold or simply invested in other things, but the industry developed very well in those few years."
"When most stocks are falling, even if energy futures rise sharply, the stocks of energy companies are also very variable. And I said that after pulling up, we will reverse operations to suppress it, so as to obtain the maximum benefit. Benefit."
"It would be fine if I were the one leading the suppression, and I could tell you to flee in time. But if other hot money takes action first, I will never compete with them for funds. I will also respond in reverse to suppress futures prices and sell short." Make money. By then, it will be too late for you to leave."
Zhang Ruiqiang pinched his eyebrows: "I seem to remember you telling me that the real estate market in the United States is about to collapse again. This time, is this the cause?"
"I can't tell you the specific reasons in detail, but the analysis results of my analysts tell me that the United States will be in big trouble this time, and their economy will suffer a heavy blow."
"This is also a good opportunity for us to narrow the gap between us. At the same time, we must also be vigilant and pay for the mistakes of others like the island countries did back then."
At the end of the 1980s, the United States also had a real estate bubble, and then the disaster was transferred to other markets such as Japan, which caused a decade of economic recession in the island countries and also gave China rapid development opportunities.
During this period of time in the previous life, the stock market in the United States fell sharply, but the market with the largest decline was the market in Asia, which of course also included the Chinese market.
The United States can always transfer its bad luck to others when it is unlucky. It's like my family has lost money this year, but other families have suffered more losses than mine, so our family is still the richest.
China's financial market has always wanted to be in line with international standards. But we are cautious, fearing that if we open up too much, too much international hot money will pour in, and the market will easily be manipulated by others.
But many people also say, with so many foreign exchange reserves, how could China easily allow others to control the market? One is administrative management, and we can also have funds to stabilize the stock market.
But if your investment abroad is stuck, wouldn’t the first thing that comes to mind be to get out of the trap first? When he came back to his senses, his house was already in chaos.
"Feng Yu, this matter is so serious, the superiors must hold a meeting to discuss it. Why don't you come back and join our meeting?"
"Not interested. Again, if I sell this news to those big financial investment institutions, it will be worth at least several hundred million U.S. dollars. I'm telling you for free now, and if the boss doesn't believe it, there's nothing I can do. Your family will be there again soon. It’s time for guests to arrive, so I’ll leave first.”
