Chapter 215: Shorting Wall Street

On January 16, at 21:12 Yanjing time, the Tomahawk cruise missiles launched by the multinational forces to carry out the first wave of strikes took off from seven warships in the Persian Gulf, aiming directly at Baghdad, the capital of Iraq.

After five months of mediation by all sides, the Gulf crisis finally failed to make any progress in a political settlement, and Saddam Hussein insisted on going his own way, not wanting to spit out the fat in his mouth at all.

Perhaps Lao Sa really underestimated the determination of the Americans, or perhaps it was the support given by the Americans in the previous Iran-Iraq war that made him misunderstand something, in short, the peace effort failed, and the multinational force began the phase of military strikes.

Liu Feng, who was connecting with Bao Daxing, immediately learned the news. All along, Liu Feng's team has been paying close attention to the situation in the Gulf, and Bao Daxing's side is also gearing up, ready to fight at any time, and it is a battle in the financial market.

Liu Feng decisively ordered as soon as he saw the news: "Open a position!" A billion dollars full of short positions! ”

A few little women who were playing mahjong suddenly stopped the game in their hands and ran to Liu Feng's side. Zhang Jiaojiao's eyes widened and asked, "Old Gada, the battle has just started, why did we establish a short contract?" I don't know how long it will take, is it too dangerous to fight so early? ”

Zi Dou knew that Liu Feng was also gambling that time, and everyone was apprehensive. However, questioning Liu Feng in person, Zhang Jiaojiao is still the first person. It's just that everyone is absolutely concerned, Liu Feng knows that everyone also wants to know the reason for what they are doing.

"How much chance do you think Saddam Hussein has of resisting the multinational force? Or how long can Iraq survive in this situation? ”

At this time, even Hu Jiao and Han Weidong came from the guest room, and Hao Ya said crisply: "If the multinational force launches a ground offensive, I'm afraid Iraq will not hold out for ten days and will be defeated." ”

Liu Feng glanced at everyone, and no one objected to Hao Ya's statement. In order to deal with this short contract, everyone has been paying attention to the situation in the Gulf, and almost half of them have become military fans.

Everyone often discusses this issue together, with Han Weidong, the captain of the military special brigade, and several military compounds, they are not military blind, so everyone looks at the problem quite objectively.

Liu Feng said with a smile: "Look, we all know that Saddam Hussein can't hold on, are the tycoons in the financial market all crazy?" ”

Hao Ya was praised by the madman's brother, and her face turned red, but she didn't flinch at all, and her eyes were full of happiness.

Han Weidong frowned and asked, "Old Gada, seeing that the price of oil is still rising now, is it a bit too hasty for us to intervene?" ”

The two of them were in the same tone, and Liu Feng stretched out a finger: "Always remember one thing, we are not gods!" Especially in the financial market, if you want to make a profit at the highest point and open a position at the lowest point, the only possibility is to lose miserably.

Maybe oil futures will rise, but what we are doing is the general trend, and following the trend is the king. Even if we may lose some of our money right now, as long as we grasp the general trend, the one who will make money in the end will be us. ”

Hu Jiao's eyes lit up: "Old Gada, how much profit will we make this time?" ”

Liu Feng smiled slightly: "There are two possibilities, one is to lose all the money, but to double the amount of money invested." ”

Xiao Mei'er pouted: "Little madman, are you going to play outlaws again?" Hmph, whatever you want, Hao Ya, Frangipani, Xu Ying, let's go on to play mahjong, I don't have time to be idle. ”

"And me, and me!"

Zhang Jiaojiao stopped paying attention to that damn oil futures, and Hao Ya said with a smile: "That Jiaojiao sister plays, I watch the battle." ”

Xiao Meier glanced at Zhang Jiaojiao: "Bride, don't you want to watch your own family?" If you stay for a while, you'll be uncertain, and you won't be allowed to lose. ”

"Look at people! When will I rely on Zhang Jiaojiao's account? Anyway, today's old Gada gambles the most, simply, we also raise, Hao Ya, let's get the two sisters together. ”

The three men were not so easy, because of the news coming back from Wall Street, oil futures were still rising! In just one hour, it rose from $33 to $34.02 a barrel, that is to say, it rose by another $0.63, and the short contract that Liu Feng had just opened was in danger of liquidation.

"Brother Bao, how did you do with the stock mortgage before?"

"In the United States, the banks are more tightly regulated and the short-term lending rates are high, but I still borrowed $1.5 billion. What, old Gada, do you think oil futures will go up? ”

"Looking at the current momentum, our short contract liquidation is certain, but Seon is not blessed! The higher it rises, the greater our profit in the future, Brother Bao, increase the margin amount to ensure the safety of funds. ”

Hu Jiao listened to Liu Feng's order silently, and suddenly felt very strange, he was afraid that he would lose all his money before, but when Lao Gada really started to fight, he didn't have a trace of nervousness.

Han Weidong yawned loudly: "It is said that getting married is fainting, and I understand it completely now." Your brother is busy, I'll go to sleep, tomorrow there will be busy! ”

"What's the matter, Han Weidong, do you regret it?"

Zhang Jiaojiao asked in a manly voice while touching the cards, and Han Weidong was sleepy when he arrived: "How come, hehe, Jiaojiao, being able to marry you as my lover is the greatest blessing in my life." Come Jiaojiao, brother will help you rub your shoulders. ”

"It's disgusting!" Hao Ya frowned and looked at the little couple who were like no one on the side, "Brother Han, you have gone too far!" ”

Xu Ying exaggerated the action of vomiting: "Tell you Han Weidong, don't kill the seedlings here, Hao Ya is the flower and bone of the motherland, if you two are led to the next way, I will not finish with you!" ”

Hao Ya stepped forward to scratch Xu Ying's armpits: "Sister Xu Ying is too bad, how can I go down!" ”

"Giggle, don't, giggle, Hao Ya, stop, hahaha!"

After a while, Xu Ying was squeaked by Hao Ya and rolled in the kang, Liu Feng looked back and saw the relaxed appearance of several people, obviously not taking billions of dollars of futures trading to heart. Liu Feng shook his head, I don't know if it is better to say that they are ignorant and fearless, or if they are full of confidence in themselves?

"34.7 US dollars, it is still rising, I feel that the multi-party forces in the market are still very strong, Lao Gada, do you still need to continue to increase the margin?"

"Don't rush yet, if we want to endanger our funds again, we have to rise by at least 5%, I don't think the market may have that much momentum."

"The latest market dynamics are out, and analysts say that oil prices are likely to hit new highs and break through record highs."

Hu Jiao took out the cigarette case boringly, then put it back in his pocket, turned back to Xiao Mei'er and shouted: "Mei'er, what about the old Gada's autumn wind smoke at the old man's place?" Take it out and let the eldest brother enjoy it, there is no taste in his mouth at all, and he is uncomfortable. ”

Xiao Mei'er asked Hao Ya to help look at the cards, returned to her room, and took out one after a while, Liu Feng was anxious: "Sister Mei'er, that's-"

Hu Jiao snatched the cigarette and put it in his arms: "It's stingy, it's just a cigarette, it's not as good as Mei'er's generosity." When my brother arrived in Baoshan City, he didn't even have anything to support the faΓ§ade, and this article was confiscated! ”

As he spoke, he slowly took out his own and handed it to Liu Feng, who was full of grievances: "Pull it down, you don't have a big addiction to smoking, aren't you using it to fool people?" Come, my brother will give you something. ”

Liu Feng took a sip viciously, as if he wanted to make up for the lost one, but he didn't want to choke himself to the point of coughing endlessly.

Xiao Mei'er said angrily: "After the New Year, I'm twenty-five cents old, and I still look like a child, can't we worry about it!" ”

Hao Ya ran out, and after a while, he served tea to everyone, Liu Feng drank the tea and asked Bao Daxing, who was far away on the other side of the world: "Brother Bao, how is the energy of the long contract now?" ”

"The long contracts seem to be starting to decrease, the short contracts are increasing all the time, but the price is still rising, it is already 34.975."

Liu Feng said with a smile: "Brother Bao, don't worry, now I'm afraid that there are funds deliberately driving up the price of oil, in order to make a lot of money on short contracts." It is estimated that the 500 million we have in reserve will not be used, and it will rise to about 35.5 at most, and it will fall. ”

"Old Gada, how can you be so sure?"

"Hey, now the long contract has seen that the momentum is wrong, how can the short contract open a position without them taking orders? Unable to open a position, it is meaningless to continue except to increase the pressure on your own funds. ”

Hu Jiao didn't even stay by Liu Feng's side this time, came to the mahjong table, began to watch the women's fighting, and muttered: "It's not exciting at all!" ”

Zhang Jiaojiao pouted: "It's easy for Brother Jiao to find excitement, as long as you play against Lao Gada, he plays short, and you can play long." ”

"Gotta get it, my brother doesn't have a masochist hobby, so it's better for your family Han Weidong to play."

Everyone laughed, Xu Ying looked at the cards in her hand and sighed: "It's too much to memorize today, why don't we change the way we play?" Hao Ya and Brother Jiao of the province watched them dryly, weren't they too angry? ”

Zhang Jiaojiao likes to be lively the most: "How to play?" ”

Liu Feng watched Xu Ying sit in the village, mixed the two decks of poker together, and learned the methods of those little liars in Sichuan and Chongqing City to tempt a group of sisters to bet, and shook his head with a smile. Several people did not have the slightest awareness of being fooled by the "liar", one by one betting to see the cards, and they were nervous, for fear of being seen the hole cards.

I heard Bao Daxing shouting on the phone: "Old Gada, it's starting to fall!" $35 lasted only a few minutes and then it started to fall! ”

Liu Feng said with a smile: "Brother Bao, you can go back to sleep, this round of falling channel formation will last for a while." In a short time, you'll have nothing to do. ”

Bao Daxing laughed: "But yes, anyway, there are professionals doing it, and I'm just a shadow behind the scenes." Hehe, why don't my brother go to Hawaii to play, will it be? ”

"Of course you can, in the future, Brother Bao will have time and money, as long as you don't get tired of playing."

"Hah, all killed!"

Xu Ying shouted loudly, her voice was full of joy, and Zhang Jiaojiao muttered in annoyance: "How can this be reasonable, how can it explode?" Han Weidong! Stay away from me, you idiot! How could I possibly win money by my side! ”

Han Weidong had no choice but to exchange places with Huang Suxin, and complained in a low voice: "Jiaojiao, don't be so unreasonable, okay?" How can I affect your winnings when I'm around you? ”

Zhang Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and scolded: "Haven't you heard of the love scene and the casino frustration?" You're slimy, so close to me, aren't you waiting to lose! ”

Xiao Meier stretched out her hand and gave Zhang Jiaojiao a brain meltdown: "You are a brutal little daughter-in-law, you are so tricky before you are married, if you are a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law in the future, will you still have a way to live?" ”

Zhang Jiaojiao rubbed her head and raised her head: "Hmph, if you want to be my daughter-in-law, you have to listen to me!" If you want to make the old lady angry, no way! ”

Everyone was defeated by this fierce Zhang Jiaojiao, this bride-to-be is simply taboo-free, it is too yellow and violent!
