Soros propped his head on one hand and looked at the screen in front of him. It was the program where Professor Liang was a guest on "Financial Trends".
Next to Soros sat Zhukan Miller, the only remaining member of his original four kings and the one he relied on most.
"Ken Zhu, what do you think of this news?" Soros's voice was still loud and powerful.
"This is a very clear signal. Xiangjiang is ready to join forces to speculate in crude oil futures, and they are all bullish."
"There are many rich people in Xiangjiang, and the ones who are more prominent in finance are the Fu family. This Professor Liang is also a well-known financial expert in Asia, and has also served as a consultant for large investment institutions in Europe."
"For several days in a row, they have been publicizing this news in order to attract international hot money to join in, thereby forming a powerful force and driving up the rise of crude oil."
"And the vanguard here is actually Fengyu Consulting, which is Feng's company!"
Quantum Fund is also good at these methods, and Zhuken Miller has appeared on financial TV programs.
Soros nodded, yes, this leader must be Feng. I haven't seen Feng take action for a long time. I didn't expect that when he did, he was ready for a big one.
Many people think that Feng Yu cashed out the stocks of his listed subsidiaries just to acquire Li Chaoren and Huang's port controlling interests. But Soros believes that it is just a cover.
Feng Yu's real purpose is to raise funds and prepare to enter the futures market to make a fortune.
The current situation in the stock market is good. It would not be a surprise if Feng Yu invested in stock index futures, but Feng Yu did not. He invested in crude oil futures.
Does Feng Yu think that the rise in crude oil will exceed the stock index? Why does he think so
"Ken Zhu, please investigate how much money Feng has raised."
Knowing how much money the other party has, and then seeing how much the other party has invested, combined with some other data, can help him analyze the other party's investment strategy and direction.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
After Zhuken Miller went out, Soros was still staring at the screen in a daze.
He was originally called the best financial investor after Buffett and the world's number one hedge fund manager. Even many people who are not involved in finance know the name of Quantum Fund.
But later, the Quantum Fund was almost finished. If he hadn't reversed his strategy in time, he might have lost everything.
The turning point was the financial crisis that swept across Asia in 1997.
At the beginning, he was also unstoppable. It successively attacked the currency and stock markets of several countries, brought down the other party's financial system, and made huge profits.
But at that time, he was cooperating with Feng Yu. Only by joining forces could the two parties achieve those goals more quickly. But at that time, Feng Yu actually warned him that he was not allowed to touch Xiangjiang and Lisboa, which made him very unhappy.
At that time, he was at the height of his power, and his reputation once surpassed that of the stock god Buffett. How could he take Feng Yu seriously
In particular, he believed that Feng Yu did not have much funds and could not defeat him. Besides, he didn't believe that Feng Yu really dared to confront him, and both sides would suffer.
But in the end, Feng Yu really confronted him head-on, and even brought the entire wealthy people in Xiangjiang and Lisboa along with him. In addition, the government over there and the Chinese government took action, causing him to lose a lot of profits.
And then he attacked the Russian market. Does this have nothing to do with you, Mr. Feng Yu? As a result, Feng Yu intervened again, and the Russian government's tactics became even tougher, causing him to spit out all his profits and even lose his principal.
If he had not cut off his courage and admitted failure in time, then he would have lost all the principal of his Quantum Fund, and would have also lost all his customers' money. In that case, he would not only be bankrupt, but would even be in more serious trouble.
All of that was thanks to Feng Yu, who turned him from a big star that attracted everyone's attention to a shooting star, and almost fell.
Fortunately, during the Internet bubble, he rose up again and allowed Quantum Fund to return to the ranks of the world's top hedge funds and regain his glory.
But no matter how successful the Quantum Fund is now, he is still under the light of Feng Yu.
At that time, his assets were only one-tenth of Buffett's, but he could complement and even outshine Buffett. Now his assets are only one-tenth of Feng Yu's, why can't he be on par with Feng Yu? Why can't he overshadow Feng Yu
If he wants to overshadow Feng Yu, he does not need his assets to exceed Feng Yu. It is enough that the profit rate of his investment exceeds Feng Yu.
In this way, the Quantum Foundation will become the most well-known fund in the world again, which will bring him more profits. Instead of being like now, Fengyu Consulting is the myth of the industry, and his Quantum Fund is only in the second gear.
Isn’t Feng Yu going to invest in crude oil futures this time? He was originally more optimistic about this. But this time, he made more money than Feng Yu, letting everyone know who is the best financial investor!
How to be more profitable than Feng Yu? That would require him to buy a contract with a wider spread and use a higher leverage ratio.
Leverage operation is what Soros is best at, and many managers in his Quantum Fund are also very good at it. In other words, when he hired those managers, he focused on this point.
His team must follow his style. If anyone is different, then get out!
What Soros has to do now is to suppress the price of crude oil and make the price even lower, so that he can obtain the maximum profit from the price difference.
The amount of money from the Quantum Fund alone is not enough. He and some regular large clients have less than 20 billion US dollars in assets in the Quantum Fund, of which he personally owns about 6 billion US dollars.
These funds are not enough to fight Feng Yu.
If it were someone else, then these funds, through a complex three-dimensional speculation model, could have the effect of hundreds of billions of dollars, and he could easily make profits. But it depends on who his opponent is. The opponent is Feng Yu, and he is also familiar with his tricks, so it will be difficult for him to be effective.
If you want to successfully lower the price of crude oil at this time, you must require more funds to ensure success.
Of course, it would be better if the price could be lowered so that Feng Yu could lose a lot of money. However, he also knew that this was unlikely. No matter what the price of crude oil was, it would be difficult to fall below fifty dollars, so it would be difficult for Feng Yu to liquidate his position.
What's more, they usually do hedging, or set aside enough risk reserves to increase principal and reduce leverage at any time.
But it would be very good to cause some trouble for Feng Yu and reduce Feng Yu's profits.
Soros grabbed the phone on the table: "Notify me, there will be a meeting in five minutes!"
