Chapter 342: Guo Shouyun's personal account

……

"Boss, I would like to know what you think of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae?" asked John Luthmi.

"Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae?" Guo Shouyun frowned slightly, "Do you value the U.S. real estate market?"

"Yes. I remember my boss talking a lot in public about his vision for the future of the U.S. real estate industry. Judging by the current trend, the U.S. housing market is indeed rising. But the magnitude has not been significant. So, I'm not sure if there's excess profit in that. ”

"I'm not sure. However, as the federal funds rate falls, liquidity increases. At present, it seems that the real estate market is likely to drive economic growth in the end, and there is enough market to absorb the money. So, I think it's going to go up big in the future. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are the hegemons of the U.S. secondary market. Their stocks have good investment value. ”

"Got it!"

After a moment of thought, John Luxmi nodded.

"Compared with the stock market, I am still more optimistic about gold, oil, and iron ore futures products. They are the cornerstone of industry, and as the global economy recovers and grows, so will their prices. Zhang Shaoling said.

John Rusmie focuses on the U.S. housing market, Michael Barry focuses on the biotechnology industry, Qin Zhicheng focuses on the fast-growing China market, and Zhang Shaoling focuses on the futures market he is most interested in.

In this way, everyone has a focus, and different investment areas can not only diversify the risk, but also get more profits.

After chatting with the four of them about the views and investment strategies of each market, Guo Shouyun ended the conference call.

Of course, this is not the end of the matter. In addition to the Thunder Fund, Guo Shouyun has other hedge funds that need to be explained.

"Boss, you're disturbing the dinner I'm eating!" Zhang Lei smiled.

Hong Kong is seven hours ahead of London. When it was afternoon on Guo Shouyun's side, it was already evening on the Hong Kong side.

"I don't want to, either, but who let the opportunity come?"

"Opportunity?"

Thinking of Guo Shouyun's previous explanation, Zhang Lei's eyes lit up.

"Looking for a place where you can talk?"

"Okay, wait a minute!"

After a moment of murmur, "Okay, how much cash does the Mangzhong Fund have now?"

"After selling all of the bonds and some of the equity, there are now $7.3 billion! In addition, GCA can also draw $2 billion from the inside. ”

"That's right! I'll give you another $700 million to make up a whole of $10 billion. Boost the gold market from now on. 10x leverage, 20% reserve!"

Although Guo Shouyun is most optimistic about oil, he cannot put his eggs in the same basket. With the oil head of the Thunder Fund, the funds of the Mangzhong Fund were arranged by him into the gold market.

But what puzzled Zhang Lei was not Guo Shouyun's layout of the gold market, after all, his past experience made him expect Guo Shouyun to invest in gold.

"Boss, do you think the war in Iraq will break out?"

"That's right, you must know the U.S. Congressional resolution. Moreover, I know George W. Bush, a hawk with adventurism at heart. Moreover, the major American conglomerates standing behind him will not tolerate Sa ~ Damm, a powerful figure who has repeatedly undermined the hegemony of the 'petrodollar'. So war is inevitable!"

"But the United Nations has been opposing, will the United States insist on going its own way?"

"It is true that from the perspective of ordinary Chinese people, but Americans have never taken the United Nations into account. Without the United Nations, the United States is still the world hegemon. But without the United States, how much authority is left in the UN?"

Zhang Lei was silent, not to mention a hegemon like the United States, even ordinary small and medium-sized countries did not treat the United Nations as a dish.

"Okay, that's all I have to say. You explain to Yu Fei and let the Mangzhong Fund start to act. Once it's late, the profit margins left for us will be compressed. ”

"Understood. I'll call him right away!"

"Let's do this first, send me an email if you have something!" After nodding, Guo Shouyun hung up the phone.

Glancing at the time, "Matthew?"

"Boss!"

"Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"

"Ready! Would you like to bring it to you?"

"No, put it in the trunk. We went out an hour later. ”

"Yes!"

After waving his hand for Matthew to leave, Guo Shouyun picked up his phone again.

"Wendy, is the family okay?"

"Good. Can you rest assured?"

"What about Elizabeth and George?"

"Uncle and Aunt Lincoln took them to the garden. ”

Guo Shouyun nodded and then changed his words, "How much money do I have in my account?"

"About $770 million, what's wrong?"

"770 million US dollars, a bit less!" Guo Shouyun said in his heart.

He has a lot of assets, but Guo's, Ruby, Enron Pacific, Matrix, Apple and other valuable companies are all under the name of the six charitable foundations he founded, and the assets that really belong to Guo Shouyun are only the copyrights he wrote, the property rights of seven villas, and the shares of the United Real Estate co-founded with Cheng Tinghua, plus the NBA Clippers.

The share of sales and film and television rights is the bulk of Guo Shouyun's income, providing him with nearly $1.1 billion in cash in the past three years.

After deducting expenses, such as buying the Clippers, paying loan installments for various villas, maintaining his 15 percent stake in Union Real Estate, buying art, and maintaining the training and equipment costs of the growing bodyguard team, there is still about $500 million left.

The reason why there is still 770 million is naturally the credit of Guo Shouyun's capital operation.

"Set aside $700 million, I'm going to use it right away!"

"Got it! However, with so much money missing, our family's financial expenses may be tight for a while. ”

"It's not that exaggerated, it's almost the end of the month. Thornbird's sales share and matrix's film and television copyright share add up to $40 million, which is enough. ”

"Didn't you say you wanted the oil painting of Van Gogh's Still Life and Poppy Flowers that Sotheby's took in the autumn? Wendy chuckled.

Guo Shouyun suddenly realized that investing in top art is what he has been doing all these years. He also likes classicism, impressionism, realism and Chinese art. Van Gogh is a representative of Impressionism, and his works are naturally the focus of Guo Shouyun's investment.

"If you can't do it, let's take out a mortgage on the art in our house. After weighing it, Guo Shouyun said.

After answering, Wendy was curious: "$700 million is a lot of money, what are you going to do?"

"I saw a good opportunity and wanted to operate in the capital markets. ”

Wendy understood, but she didn't ask much. has gradually moved away from Guo Shouyun's career circle, and she concentrates on her family, except for taking care of finances, she rarely asks about Guo Shouyun's career.

"Elizabeth and George are back, I won't tell you yet. Otherwise, if they see me, I'll call you again, and these two annoying little guys will be arguing for you again!"

"Wendy, thank you!" Guo Shouyun said sincerely.

"Hmm!"

After a gentle answer, the phone hung up.

Listening to the blind sound of 'toop', Guo Shouyun looked at the phone with a complicated expression for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief.

After dealing with some official business, seeing that the time was almost there, Guo Shouyun walked out of the house with Matthew.

At No. 19 Wood Street, Guo Shouyun, who had been here many times, knocked on the door with a familiar car.

With the sound of footsteps far and near, the closed door opened. Immediately after that, a little blonde girl with a ponytail showed her round little head, and after seeing the person standing outside the door clearly, her little face immediately showed a look of surprise. The small body came out from behind the door and threw itself into the arms of the visitor.

"The Godfather?"

"Haha, Jessica, do you want to godfather?"

Guo Shouyun picked up the little girl who had now become his goddaughter, and after turning around, he smiled.

"Of course. But the godfather never came to see me. ”

"You goblin. The Godfather has a job to do, too. Give, this is a gift delivered to you, like?"

"Nemo, I like Nemo!"

Jessica held the clownfish in her arms and was overjoyed.

"Bruce, put her down. She is 9 years old, she is no longer a child, and it is time to be sensible. ”

"Rowling, you're always so harsh!"

After laughing and putting Jessica down, "Neil, long time no see!"

"Long time no see, Bruce!"

After hugging Neil Mori for a while, looking at the little guy hiding behind Rowling and peeking at him with his little head exposed, Guo Shouyun squatted down, "Hey, little guy." Your name is David, isn't it?"

David Murray, who is one and a half years old, is the son of Rowling and Neil Murray, about half a year older than his two children with Molly Bevan.

The little guy looked a little scared, but when he saw the Garfield doll that Guo Shouyun was holding in his hand, there was still a look of longing on his little face. Under the gaze of the three adults, especially when he saw his sister getting the gift, after hesitating for a while, the little guy finally left his mother's thigh, walked to Guo Shouyun with a shake, and stretched out his chubby little hand.

"Haha, David is awesome!"

Putting the Garfield doll into the little guy's arms, Guo Shouyun reached out and hugged him.

"Wow...!"

Before he could be pleased, the little one's cry was already ringing in his ears.

"Mom...!"

Rowling smiled and took the child from Guo Shouyun, who was a little embarrassed, "David is a little scared. ”

"This kid is not as good as his sister!Bruce, come in!" Neil Mori beckoned Guo Shouyun, took Jessica's little hand, and walked into the living room.
