Chapter 388: Homework

A luxurious Lincoln extended limousine drove on Wharton Street, Zhou Ming, Chen Shu, Ye Ning, Li Yang, three finance class students and Edward were all sitting in the car, they were just going to the sky ladder building, and all the students in the finance class were waiting there. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Teacher, according to Sister Lin's operation, Wharton and Brooke Investment Company have been merged into Jinming Fund Company, and the company's office is still in the Tiantai Building. ”

On the way, Chen Shu kept reporting to Zhou Ming about the company's situation, although they had also reported to Zhou Ming when Zhou Ming occasionally called back, but now that he saw Zhou Ming himself, he still felt that it was necessary to report it again. And the title of 'Sister Lin' is naturally for Lin Muqing, Lin Muqing knew that Zhou Ming was the homeroom teacher of these students, so she asked them to call her sister too.

After about ten minutes, Zhou Ming and the others arrived at the Tiantai Building, although Zhou Ming did not notify them in advance, but when they took the elevator upstairs, they still saw the students of the finance class at the door to greet them. Voices like 'Hello teacher' and 'Welcome back teacher' came and went, obviously they were all the same as Chen Shu, and they were very excited and happy to see Zhou Ming come back.

"Hello classmates, I think you haven't eaten yet, right? But it's not early today, let's go downstairs to Ruoke's restaurant to eat, you are all teachers' treasures, if you starve, I'll be a sinner!"

Zhou Ming quipped, and then went downstairs with his classmates to the Ruoke restaurant in a burst of laughter.

This is the self-operated restaurant of the ladder building, which usually should be closed at this time, but because Zhou Ming temporarily ordered a meal today and gave enough tips, the owner of this restaurant specially stayed for Zhou Ming until now and chartered Zhou Ming.

"Mr. Zhou Ming is very welcome to dine here, for Mr. Zhou Ming, our chef has not gone back to rest, and is waiting to serve you at any time!"

The manager of the restaurant was waiting for Zhou Ming at the door, and since this kind of private charter was given to him with an additional commission, the restaurant manager was naturally very attentive to Zhou Ming.

came to the cafeteria and sat down, and after the dishes came up, Zhou Ming stood up and said, "Students, your homeroom teacher is back!"

With Zhou Ming's words, the restaurant suddenly cheered, which made Edward who came with him completely confused, he felt that this was unreasonable, Zhou Ming was not just a class teacher?

When the cheers subsided, Zhou Ming continued: "Although I have been away from Brighton for a long time, I hope that your studies have not fallen behind, because you are all carefully selected students in the finance class, if I let me know that you are lazy, I will definitely not let you go!"

In response to Zhou Ming's words, the class leader Chen Shu first replied: "Teacher, don't worry, we haven't fallen behind for a moment, we study seriously every day at Harvard, and we have also completed some investment models that you explained and calculated before leaving, and we have also started to enter the stock market and futures markets with these investment models, and have generated more than 100,000 US dollars in income so far!"

Li Yang said: "Teacher, as well as your campus convenience store project, we have now received the first round of financing, and we have opened the store to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology next door!

After them, the other students also told Zhou Ming about their achievements in the past six months.

In fact, Zhou Ming was not surprised by their achievements, after all, these are all geniuses carefully selected by the country, with their abilities, it is not uncommon to reach what height, Zhou Ming is afraid that he is only afraid of hurting Zhongyong's story, and his excessive talent makes them lose their motivation to forge ahead, especially if they are not here for half a year, if they are really slack, then they will be too guilty.

But fortunately, these students themselves are very powerful, which also reassures Zhou Ming, maybe in the near future, they will be his greatest help.

Zhou Ming thought it was okay, but these reports made him dumbfounded in Edward's ears, because no matter how the content of these reports sounded, they should be reports made by senior investors in some large investment banks, and it was hard for him to imagine that it was really just a group of students who were still in school. Before, he only knew that Zhou Ming had brought such a financial class from China, but he hadn't investigated it carefully, he didn't expect it to be so powerful!

After some commotion, Zhou Ming still took them to eat first, anyway, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and they were hungry no matter what.

While eating Zhou Ming, he asked Chen Shu: "You should all know about the recent pound sniping incident, which is the handiwork of hedge funds, simply put, it is to take advantage of the weak domestic economy in the UK to sell the pound and force the pound to depreciate, so as to create income." ”

Zhou Ming paused for a moment before continuing: "Now we see from the results that this is indeed the case, and this way of operation is also extremely risky, because if the British attitude can be tougher, or other European countries can help the UK, then this investment will fail, but do you know? Hedge funds are actually a very safe way to invest at the beginning. ”

Chen Shuye Ning and Li Yang were very surprised by these words, because from this pound sniper war, no matter how you look at it, it is a big speculation, how can it be a safe investment?

Zhou Ming then explained: "The so-called hedging of hedge funds actually refers to an investment behavior that has both long and short positions, because we have invested in both long and short positions, so no matter how the market changes in the future, we can get benefits." ”

The outspoken Li Yang first said: "Teacher, according to what you said, it is true that in theory hedge funds can achieve such investment results, but the problem is that the returns brought by this investment method are too small, and it is also due to the fact that two-way investment under the premise of uncertain market trends will cause a large amount of investment waste, which is unnecessary." ”

Zhou Ming is very satisfied with Li Yang's analysis: "That's true, so generally hedge funds will use financial leverage, and use a small amount of money to amplify the market amount they want to manipulate through financial leverage, which is like a margin in the futures market, so that they can maximize their returns." ”

As soon as Zhou Ming explained this, Chen Shuye Ning and Li Yang fully understood, because in the futures market, the futures contracts generally used for trading will not pay the full amount because they have not yet reached the delivery date, but only need to pay 10% of the margin, that is, through the investment of 100 US dollars, you can leverage the market amount of 1,000 US dollars and get a higher return than 100 US dollars.

Of course, as the saying goes, the greater the return, the greater the risk, once a loss occurs, the margin loss will also increase exponentially.

"So the hedge fund model is your next phase of work. Zhou Ming gave Chen Shu and them homework.

After dinner, Zhou Ming asked the students in the finance class to go back to school first, after all, they all have to go to class tomorrow, they are all such good seedlings, Zhou Ming doesn't want to ruin them, as for Zhou Ming himself, he will go back to the Kendini Investment Bank Building with Edward.

In the car, Edward asked Zhou Ming curiously: "If I'm not mistaken, these students of yours are only in the second grade now, is it really okay to expose them to such a very complex thing as hedge funds now?"

Zhou Ming shrugged his shoulders senselessly: "Is there any problem with this? Didn't I already instruct Joros to make a hedge investment in the pound? I believe that after the incident of the pound, hedge funds will have a greater impact on the world in the next few years, so it is necessary for them to grasp the operation mode of this fund in advance." ”

"I know that this may be too much pressure on them, but as you know, Mr. Governor, my country started too late in terms of finance, so we can only grieve them in order to catch up with the world, in order to make the country suffer a little less in this regard. Zhou Ming added, "But my students, they are all carefully selected elites by the state, and I am very confident in their ability." ”

Edward asked again: "Mr. Zhou Ming, as the head teacher of this finance class, are you going to train them all to be people like you?"

Zhou Ming smiled slightly: "Mr. Governor, what do you guess?"

For Zhou Ming's rhetorical question, Edward gasped, he didn't know how to say it, if these students in the finance class really became people like Zhou Ming, even if they were just a little worse than him, it would be enough to change the whole world.

Edward didn't want to think about it, and it wasn't something he could handle, and after half an hour, they returned to the Kendini Investment Bank Building, and each went back to their respective lounges to rest.

The next morning, because he had rested for a long time yesterday, Zhou Ming got up very early, and when he walked to the bed and opened the curtains, he saw the situation below, and understood why Edward had to let himself live here.

"You damned liars! You promised you the best return on your investment and the lowest risk, but in reality these are all the most frenzied deceptions! What a despicable thing you damn scoundrels, you must give us back our money, we will not believe any of your explanations anymore, and your words have no legal meaning! God will punish you!"

Many people gathered at the entrance of the Kendini Investment Bank building, holding banners, and at the front was a white man in a turban, who was holding a bullhorn and kept shouting, and as he shouted, others echoed the words 'Kendini liar' and 'Kendini pays back'.

At this time, Zhou Ming had already walked out of his lounge, and was standing upstairs in the office with Edward at this time, seeing all this in his eyes.

"Since that investment failure, these people have been demonstrating here every day, and we have called the police to drive them away, but it has no effect, and there are people guarding both the front and side entrances, and even the employees who work in investment banks have to be careful when entering and exiting, and now they are all picked up by buses hired by the company. Edward said to Zhou Ming, "I didn't see it last night because they would go back to rest at night, only during the day here, and the morning is the most violent time." ”

Zhou Ming smiled slightly and nodded: "It's already blocked at the door and scolding, it seems that this is going to target your Kendini Investment Bank to the end!"
