Chapter 205: Uproar (Three Watches)

The world's seven largest gold trading centers, Zurich, London, New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney and Melbourne.

Among them, London gold is the oldest gold trading market in the world, with a history of nearly 300 years. Prior to 1968, it had a monopoly on South African gold acquisitions and gold reserves. But in 1968, the temporary closure of the London Gold Market gave the Zurich market a chance, and thus the London Gold Market ended its monopoly era.

Ma Rujun said: "Gold, it is indeed a relatively safe way to manage money, and I will do it as soon as possible." ”

If you really want to make money, you have to count China's real estate. However, Hu Yifei has no good feelings about real estate. If he wants real estate, he will also follow Wanda's model of building a commercial plaza, but unfortunately it requires a huge flow of funds. He doesn't have a banking connection to take out a loan, so let's stop.

Before being reborn, Hu Yifei also played stocks, gold, and foreign exchange, and there were gains and losses, and in general, he lost money. Although I can't remember the details with certainty now, I know all the big changes several times. With the principal, don't grab the money too quickly.

London gold was chosen because of its high leverage, no delivery deadline, and large trading volume.

Ma Rujun quickly sorted out the information and handed it over. Although HSBC is focused on the Asia-Pacific region, it has branches all over the world, and London is no less, so opening an account is even easier.

Gold investment has a certain risk, and there are many factors that affect the price of gold, among them, war, economy, employment, supply and demand, interest rates, stock market, politics and other aspects will make gold prices fluctuate.

The lowest international trading price of gold occurred on July 20, 1999, at 252 US dollars per ounce, equivalent to about 67 yuan per gram.

These prices are the first-hand prices of gold raw materials. Gold raw materials are processed into finished jewelry through layers of wholesale, and then wholesaled, and only after about 7-8 links can they reach the terminal sales. After these links, after arriving at the counter, it basically rises by about 50 yuan per gram (including management fees and taxes in each link). That's why the old jewelry in the gold store is much more recycled than the finished one.

Since the 9/11 incident in 2001, the international gold price has been on an upward trend and has continued to rise sharply since 2003. At the beginning of 2003, the price of gold was US$345.25 per ounce, and in early February of the same year, the price of gold rose to nearly US$388.9 per ounce. After several twists and turns, it hit a high of $394 at the end of September 2003, rose above the $400 mark in early December, and rose to $407.76 on December 9. The international gold price rose by about 17.8% in 2003.

The main reason for the continuous rise in international gold prices is that the global economy is still facing many uncertainties, and the depreciation of the US dollar and economic instability have increased investors' safe-haven demand, triggering a rush of investors to buy gold, pushing gold prices to an eight-year high.

The dollar is at risk of falling sharply, and gold is a safe haven.

Hu Yifei knows that in the next few years, the international currency will depreciate all the way, and the price of gold will rise in a straight line. From the current price of $402, it has climbed all the way to a height of nearly $2,000.

I remember that this year's U.S. election year, affected by the U.S.-Iraq war, the international gold price will have a large fluctuation this year, climbing from $402 to $500 before it eased down. If the butterfly's wings aren't as fast as they are, it should be around the Olympics.

Out of gold, international oil prices have been rising. And the investment that makes the traveler happy is Apple stock.

"I once had a very cheap Apple stock in front of me, but unfortunately I didn't buy it. Later, when I wanted to buy it, it had already soared all the way to the ......" story, which is estimated to be the shame of all investors, the prejudice against new things and the loss of the growth of Apple stock for more than ten years.

Apple made its first profit in five years in 1998, and by 2000, Apple's stock had risen ninefold in the frenzy of the dot-com. But in the ensuing three-year Internet winter, the stock price fell all the way down, and in 2003 it fell back to the level at the end of '97 when Steve Jobs took office.

At the beginning of 2004, the iPod was the first truly functional digital music player on the market to be compatible with Microsoft's PC software, and the explosive growth of the iPod finally began. Now, as of June, Apple has sold 50 million songs online.

As a result of this craze, Apple's stock will more than triple in 2004.

And investors, who have just been tormented by the three-year cold winter of the Internet and are extremely afraid of high-tech investment, will probably have their first instinctive reaction to Apple's stock: another bubble is coming. It's a pity that the market no longer lacks strong competitors in the same period, and Apple's stock continues to soar, doubling again in 05.

After reading the information compiled by Ma Rujun, Hu Yifei carried out his first financial operation since his rebirth.

He prepared 320 million yuan for his first financial operation. Converted into US dollars, it is equivalent to 40 million US dollars. There are many restrictions on sending money abroad, but HSBC will help him do it, as long as he signs a few more formalities.

Han Mi is also a shareholder of the company, and when he learned that Hu Yifei had withdrawn a large amount of funds, he ran over to him suspiciously and asked, "What are you doing with so much money?" ”

Hu Yifei said: "To do some value preservation investment, a large amount of money is put in the bank like this, it is really bad." Rest assured, I have enough cash on track to run the company. ”

Han Mi frowned, "Anyway, it's your own money, and I can't control it." Anyway, you take it easy. ”

"Well, do you want to do it together?"

Han Mi rolled his eyes, turned around and walked away with his little buttocks, obviously distrusting him as a novice.

Hu Yifei touched his nose and turned on the computer with a wry smile.

London gold is 24 hours trading, but in the morning is the Asian and Australian trading, the trading is relatively light, the afternoon Europe opens, and the European and American markets are traded together in the evening, with the largest trading volume. However, for London gold, which has a daily trading volume of trillions of dollars, Hu Yifei's tens of millions of dollars can be traded at any time.

He was also hesitant to take this step.

Maybe this one decision will unleash a financial monster.

But he really needs to make investments, and he needs money to take the next steps, so is he just left in the bank to do nothing?

Out of prudence, Hu Yifei's first operational target fell on Apple stock, which is the most impressive stock and the most certain. Although I can't remember the daily trend, the general range is still very clear.

When I opened the software, Apple's stock was now trading at only $6.36 and was experiencing a three-day losing streak. Compared with the stock price that was once as high as 705 in later generations, if he left it for a few years like this, it would be much better to make money than to make a movie, it would be a money grab.

He placed an order directly and bought a single of 2 million bets. The impact of the financial bubble in the United States was so profound that the $12.9 million was dropped, only a little pull and then sank again, and finally the average transaction price was $6.45.

This operation is also terrifying. It was the first time for him to operate such a huge amount of money, but after the operation was completed, he somewhat realized the feeling that those bigwigs had more money than numbers.

I looked at the oil market again, but I couldn't understand it, so I simply opened the familiar gold trading software. Now the London gold trading price is 402 US dollars / ounce, he has made 650 long orders, one hand is 100 ounces, that is to say, the gold price fell for one dollar, he lost 65,000 US dollars. The leverage of his account is 100 times, and the margin for long 650 lots is less than 600,000 US dollars, while his account capital is more than 400,000 US dollars, the risk is not large, and the actual leverage used is only about 10 times.

He thought about it, opened Facebook and began to write:

"Children's Day is coming, this baby wishes all the babies a happy holiday."

""Prison Break" is about to usher in the finale, and the outside world is generally concerned about a topic, that is, whether the final ratings can break the ratings of "Returning the Pearl...... I don't care about it, I can't control it anyway. ”

"There are two goals in the second half of this year, one of which is that the movie "Source Code" can break 100 million at the box office, and then make another movie in the second half of the year! Goal 2: I hope that the number of valid registered users of Facebook will reach 100 million before the Spring Festival, and I will send 100 million yuan in red envelopes to celebrate the New Year for everyone. ”

The picture of this round of operation was screenshotted and sent it directly.

As soon as this article was published, it immediately caused an uproar!
