Chapter 413: Layout (2nd Update)

[Thank you for the 5888 tip, thank you very much! ] 】

Hu Yifei rested at home for a week, and the crew had urged him several times.

Obviously, Reggie couldn't bear it, but Hu Yifei was not in a hurry. Because the filming has entered the final stage, it is much faster than expected, and Warner can't say anything no matter how urgent it is.

It was already May 2007, and U.S. mortgage risks began to surface. HSBC Holdings added $1.8 billion in bad debt provisions for its subprime mortgage business in the United States, and Countryide-Financial-Corp, the largest subprime mortgage company in the United States, reduced lending and declared it on the verge of bankruptcy. U.S. stocks fell sharply again, with the Dow down 2%, the S&P down 2.04%, and the Nasdaq down 2.15%.

Standard & Poor's downgraded subprime mortgage bonds, sending global financial markets in turmoil.

In May, one of the world's top 500 companies, the world's leading financial services company, and the former fifth largest investment bank on Wall Street, Bear Stearns' hedge fund was on the verge of collapse, a move that led to the resignation of Bear Stearns president Warren Spector. American-Home-Mortgage, a real estate investment trust, filed for bankruptcy protection.

The U.S. subprime crisis has spread to Europe, and the European Central Bank has officially intervened......

On this day, central banks around the world injected more than $326.2 billion in 48 hours to bail out the market, and the Federal Reserve injected $38 billion into banks three times a day to stabilize the stock market. The subprime mortgage crisis continued to intensify, shaking Wall Street for the first time.

At this moment, looking back at Hu Yifei's article last year, it seems that everything is slowly advancing according to his script, and there has been no deviation so far.

At this point, no one dares to underestimate Hu Yifei's financial insights. The day after the Fed's capital injection, Time Magazine, Washington Daily, Los Angeles Times and many other newspapers reprinted Hu Yifei's article published in the Wall Street Journal at the end of last year.

"A financial genius who meets the world, and the economy of the whole world is advancing according to his script, and you obviously want to stop it, but you can't do anything about it...... Is the financial crisis really coming? But there are still people who deny all this, "Ridiculous, just a superficial encounter, and it is not certain that it is a financial crisis, and the global economy is still thriving." ”

"Even if there is a real crisis, the U.S. government will not sit idly by." And so on.

The US Treasury Secretary also said that the Federal Reserve will work hard to prevent the credit crisis from harming the economy, and Bush promised that the administration will adopt a package to save the subprime mortgage crisis.

But none of this has anything to do with Hu Yifei, whether you believe it or not, he won't lose a single hair.

He woke up early in the morning, and after exercising, he swam in the pool.

Scarlett was busy losing weight every day, and she took a break for a year, but this year did not make her fame drop in the slightest, but because of her scandalous relationship with Hu Yifei, she repeatedly became the headline on the front page, and her fame rose instead of falling. Many directors have come to her to work with her, and she can't wait to make a comeback.

After eating breakfast, I couldn't help but kiss the child gently, but I didn't expect the little girl to wake up all of a sudden, stretched out her hand and kicked her legs, wow wow crying, Hu Yifei quickly checked it, only to know that the little girl was peeing......

This kind of thing makes the dad a little distressed, children are like this, eating, drinking, sleeping, there are only such things all day long, and they are unreasonable, in order to serve them well, it really makes people feel that time flies very slowly, and I can't wait for them to grow up to eighteen or nineteen years old or twenty years old all at once.

But many things are just the troubles of happiness, and if you don't do it, you won't be happy.

Of course, there are nurses at home, but when Hu Yifei is at home, he still hopes that he can be familiar with them. He can appreciate the fun of hands-on activities, otherwise he will miss a lot in this life.

Scarlett is going to work, Hu Yifei is leaving, and the child will definitely not be able to take care of it, but Hu Yifei's mother has nothing to do all day, and she is even more happy to see it.

Hu Yifei hugged the child for a while, and when he heard the housekeeper say that the guest had arrived, he went to the living room to meet the guest.

It was Ma Rujun and a professional financial operation team who came, all of whom were acquaintances, and they didn't need to say hello. After Hu Yifei had a brief understanding of the current international financial situation, he began to issue orders and began to lay out investment matters during the entire financial crisis.

Short!

More than a dozen companies related to real estate, such as Wal-Mart and Home Depot, are all shorted. Short U.S. real estate, short Merrill Lynch. Use the principle of leverage to go short.

But this kind of thing is easy to be remembered, especially at this sensitive time, if you are not careful, you will be beaten upside down and said to be malicious short. Fortunately, the economic order in the United States is relatively sound, and if Hu Yifei dares to do so, he will be "invited to tea" in minutes.

Naturally, the trigger for the real financial crisis was Lehman Brothers.

Historically, it was because Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy protection that the U.S. government took over the two houses, and the Bank of America bought Merrill Lynch, and then the financial crisis broke out completely.

It's an adventure, and history is being changed. Bears may become a trap, but Hu Yifei is confident that he will benefit. He remembered that David Einhorn, known as the "King of Bears", had only made billions of dollars, and Hu Yifei was eager to compete with him.

Of course, shorting is not so easy to do, otherwise everyone will go to get rich. If shorting had been easy, there would have been no suicide of the speculative genius Jesse Livermore, known as the "King of American Speculation", after three bankruptcies.

There is a saying in the investment world that "buy antiques in prosperous times, buy gold in troubled times".

The "eternal value" of gold that will not evaporate and wear out from the world has left a bane for the market. This is because there are an estimated 125,000 tonnes of gold that has survived for thousands of years, about one-third of which is in the vaults of central banks, and the rest is in private gold and jewellery collections. On the one hand, the central bank is selling, and on the other hand, the number of gold miners is increasing.

As a man who made his fortune with gold, Hu Yifei naturally did not ignore the outstanding performance of the gold market during the financial crisis.

If the historical wheel doesn't deflect, gold will be in its biggest madness of history next year, with gold hitting record highs of more than $1,000 per ounce and New York Mercantile Exchange crude oil futures hitting record highs.

Hu Yifei naturally can't remember the specific data.

But he knew that there was a historic volatility in the price of gold, which fluctuated close to $100 an ounce a day, and it was related to Lehman Brothers' declaration of bankruptcy.

Laying out an investment plan is a very important thing for him personally. After more than a day, he will continue to monitor the trend of the entire market and fine-tune it.

Hopefully this year will be a good one. (To be continued.) )
