The big boss had a new order, Gao Renqiang didn't dare to delay at all, hung up the phone, and asked the front desk secretary to book the earliest ticket for the next day.

Then, he continued to tap on the keyboard, and before he left work, he would finish reviewing the investor-facing report. Since the release of the private placement product to the outside world, a professional team has been set up internally to write the report, but every time he will make the final check, not even a single punctuation mark.

In the past two years, Gao's life has been turned upside down. He went from a down-and-out analyst to a well-known fund manager in Central. Now Ding Le has handed over the Black Panther to him to take care of and become the senior partner of the Black Panther, Gao Renqiang cherishes and values all this in front of him very much, and he does not allow his team to make the slightest mistake.

After the email was sent, Ko took off his glasses, turned his chair, straightened his hands and feet, and looked out the window at Victoria Harbour, which was his most relaxing moment of the day.

"What kind of investment opportunities did the big guy find?"

Thinking of Ding Le's phone call just now, Gao Renqiang faintly looked forward to it.

In Hong Kong Island's financial circles, only 5% of people actually make a lot of money, and these people will own villas in Tai Ping Shan, yachts in Victoria Harbour, and luxury cars. The remaining 95% are just groveling to survive and wait for the day when they dream of their town.

Because of Ding Le, he is fortunate to become the 5% of the financial circle, but human nature is greedy, who would think that he has less money?

……

Early the next morning, Gao Renqiang appeared in the office of Galaxy Investment before Ding Le went to work. The boss moved his mouth, the employee broke his leg, from the Xiangjiang River to the Huangpu River, this sentence is very suitable to describe Gao Renqiang at this moment.

After meeting the big boss, Gao Renqiang reported on the operation of the Black Panther Fund in the recent period.

After obtaining the SFC's 149 license, the private placement product issued by the Black Panther Fund, Caiyuan Rolling No. 1, was quickly subscribed by investors, and it was originally planned to raise 500 million Hong Kong dollars, but later had to be increased to 1 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Investors used real money to give a high degree of recognition to this private placement that shorted Wall Street. After the funds were raised, Gao Renqiang built a position step by step in accordance with Ding Le's investment strategy, and the yield so far is not bad.

"Investors speak highly of us, and Zhang Geshen even made a special call to invite you to watch his concert!"

"Concert?"

Gao Renqiang's words surprised Ding Le very much, and the scene of Zhang Geshen coming to the demon capital to interview him a few years ago is still vivid.

"When I'm done with this, I'll definitely go!"

After Gao Renqiang finished reporting his work, Ding Le didn't go around in circles, but asked bluntly: "Have you paid attention to the commodity market recently?"

"Commodity markets?"

Gao Renqiang was a little hesitant, as a professional investor, it is the minimum requirement to keep an eye on the mainstream market, but that is just a concern, he is not good at specific operations. So in the face of the boss's question, he was a little at a loss where to start.

Gao Renqiang pondered in his heart for a while, and replied cautiously: "Is the boss talking about gold or crude oil? In the first half of the year, the prices of these two varieties continued to rise, and they have come out of a wave of bull market one after another, and I estimate that they will continue to rise in the second half of the year!"

"As the closest currency-like commodity, gold is highly sought after for its safe-haven properties. Historical data shows that gold prices are highly inversely correlated with the movement of US real interest rates. In an environment of accelerated global economic downturn and loose liquidity, gold often ushers in an upward trend. For example, whether in 1984, 1989, or after 2001 and 2007, as the global economic locomotive of the United States, the economic decline sharply, fell into recession, the price of gold showed an upward trend. ”

"In September last year, OPEC started a new round of production cuts, in March this year, the leak of a Russian oil pipeline added additional upward momentum to oil prices, and oil prices rebounded nearly 9% in a day, and the G20 summit in April brought a stable signal to the global economy, and the global economic upturn boosted oil demand. The resonance of both fundamentals and macros pushes up oil prices!"

Gao Renqiang, who opened the chatterbox, became more and more out of control, and his previous restraint had long been forgotten.

"Don't look at the international oil price is rising sharply now, but there are too many uncontrollable factors, and the price may fall below $0 one day in the future and become negative, believe it or not!"

Ding Le looked at Gao Renqiang and said like a god.

In fact, while Ding Le said this, he didn't know that in the time and space before his rebirth, the timeline would roll forward for another 5 years, and one day in 2020, the oil market would really usher in the worst crisis in history.

The day started on any other dismal Monday, but it ended the day off in an unusual one, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude ending at -$37.63 a barrel in May, down more than 300%.

This is the first time that oil futures have fallen into negative territory since trading began on the New York Mercantile Exchange in 1983, and there are reports of an "epic crash".

The collapse in oil prices turned negative, and the entire market seemed to be thrown into another parallel world, where traders were willing to pay $40 per barrel for someone to take their crude oil quickly......

"My target is LME copper, I don't want you to make a move this time, but you have to help me find a few traders!"

Gao Renqiang didn't mention colored goods for a long time, so Ding Le simply took over the topic and said his thoughts directly.

He didn't mean to blame Gao Renqiang. After a long period of development, the capital market has long evolved into a highly complex monster, taking trading as an example, the trading is divided into market-making transactions, and there are market-making transactions specializing in commodities within the market-making transactions. So he has a specialization in the art industry, and he knows where Gao Renqiang's strengths are.

"This is on me, I will definitely find the best traders!"

The boss arranged the work, Gao Renqiang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time expressed his attitude at the first time. In the workplace, attitude is always more important than ability, and he firmly believes in this.

With the outbreak of the financial crisis, layoffs are becoming more common, and many of the star traders who used to be big investment banks and well-known investment funds are now unemployed, and there will certainly be a large number of candidates available in the treasury of headhunters.

"At present, the price of LME copper is in the stage of shocking after breaking through new highs, the market does not have much time left for us, you must make preliminary preparations within a week after you go back, and I will go over to personally supervise the battle next week!"

Ding Le is still very relieved about Gao Renqiang's efficiency, but he still has reservations about some words. In this industry, to deal with the smell of hypocrisy, loyalty, integrity is extremely scarce.

"Once the candidates are ready, a new internal team will be set up to be responsible for this operation!"

"At the same time, the positions held by the Black Panther Fund should also be appropriately adjusted to provide sufficient funds for this operation. ”

Ding Le issued a series of instructions, and the Black Panther will raid the capital market again!
