"Boss, this Brian, must be crazy, now he is shorting 0703 and longing 0704 so much, and he must be crazy when he makes a move."
Brian of the Thunderbird Company, after observing the movements of Brian of Amaranth for several days, could only say this to Jin Xiaoqiang.
Jin Xiaoqiang did not express his position, and there were still Huang Guotao and several directors of the technical department in the conference room, and everyone did not express their opinions at this time, but obviously everyone was confused by the crazy actions of Amarans and their star trader.
You must know that the price difference between 0703 and 0704 is only 25 US dollars, and the supply of natural gas in the market is still very stable, and users have not shown a special demand for natural gas this summer, but this Brian actually dares to operate such a big deal, this is a bit too nonsensical, does he want to commit suicide?
This is what many people think in this room, but Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't think so.
Generally speaking, the difference between the 0703 and 0704 contracts is very stable, especially when there is no fork in the oil extraction, natural gas extraction and supply in the United States.
Although there will be some small fluctuations during this period for those traders to arbitrage, in general, such markets will be very short-lived, and will also occur in mid-August, or late August, or even September.
In the past two months, due to natural disasters or various political activities, the prices of various international bulk futures, especially the price of natural gas, will have some irregular fluctuations.
But such fluctuations are usually short-lived, and traders who can take advantage of such fleeting opportunities become the stars of their exchanges.
And it is precisely because of this reason that there are not many opportunities for natural gas futures, and the plate is not very large.
Unless the United States is hit by Hurricane Katrina, as happened last year, destroying a large number of offshore mining platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, the supply price of natural gas futures will fluctuate significantly.
However, such situations are generally rare, unless you are a person who has passed through rebirth, otherwise it is difficult for ordinary traders to make a very accurate prediction of such natural and man-made disasters.
And this Brian. Hunter seized the opportunity last year to become famous in one fell swoop and become the hottest guy in the US capital market at present.
It's the peak of U.S. natural gas use, and it's almost August, and Brian's move at this time is clearly trying to revive Americans' memories and fears of last year's natural disaster.
And this Brian, apparently, is not a crazy person, because he is very clever in timing his shots - and he has a very accurate prediction of this market.
Surely no one else would have thought of this Brian. Hunter is going crazy, and the whole of Amaranth will go crazy with him, you must know that the current Amaranth is an investment fund with more than eight billion funds.
Once they give that Brian the maximum authority to use the funds, then if this Brian uses the more than 8 billion funds, plus the principle of leverage, he will be enough to leverage the entire natural gas capital market.
In the original history, he also did exactly that, and began to fight back in June, creating an atmosphere of panic, plunging the entire market into chaos, and all kinds of funds and investment banks that did not know the truth began to invest in rats and suspicions of each other.
In such a situation, he continued to make one after another, continued to short the 0703 contract sharply, and then bought the 0704 contract, using the principle of leverage and sufficient funds on hand, and pushed about 700 billion capital onto the gambling table. …,
At this time, those investment banks and institutions who gambled with him were suddenly stupid by such a huge amount of money, you must know that it is more than 7 billion US dollars, plus the principle of leverage, this money immediately became a terrible sledgehammer, not anyone has the courage to play with him.
And this Brian. Hunter, it was by virtue of this method of reducing the ten meetings that he crushed the psychology of all the institutions and investment bank traders who bet on him, and then artificially widened the difference between the 0703 contract and the 0704 contract, and finally after breaking the psychological defense of all opponents, he once again threw the last billion chips in his hand on the gambling table to expand the results for himself.
It was this kind of desperate gambling speculation that allowed him to recover all the billions he had lost in this market last month in a little more than a month, and after this battle, he also consolidated his position in the Amarants Fund.
At the same time, I also prepared a shovel for digging the grave!
It was his pride, his arrogance, and his stubbornness that would have destroyed Amarans and the nine billion dollars he had on hand in just one month.
And what Jin Xiaoqiang has to do at this time is to follow his pace, first eat the first bite of meat in this market, and then bite off a big piece of fat from Amarans's body as much as possible.
"No, he's not crazy, he's shrewd."
Jin Xiaoqiang's speech broke the silence in the conference room, some of the executives present did not know Jin Xiaoqiang very well, only knew that the big boss of his city company did not often appear in the company, and there were even many people who focused on the industry, and they didn't know that this young man was still the big boss of an automobile company.
But his speech has an absolutely pivotal position in the company, after all, the company can grow to this day, and the accurate judgment of the big boss is inseparable.
Hearing Jin Xiaoqiang's words, Huang Guotao, Brian, and other company executives all pricked up their ears.
"Follow his pace, don't be too obvious, let's follow him quietly, with a bigger hand, and strive to put all the money in our hands as soon as possible!"
Jin Xiaoqiang smiled and said something that stunned the employees present, that Bryan of Amarans was obviously gambling, but why did his boss actually bet heavier than him?
Could it be that the boss is crazier than that madman?
Brian and Huang Guotao were obviously confused, because this time the boss did not give a very precise explanation.
"Hurry up, let's do it, the sooner we get out, the more we will gain in the end."
Seeing that the group was unwilling to leave and wanted to persuade his subordinates, Jin Xiaoqiang said loudly.
Now that Brian has begun, the rest of the players on the market have been confused by his actions, and his approach is sure to bring back memories of last year's Hurricane Katrina.
You must know that finance is sensitive, and once people have panic, then the most direct manifestation of the economy is that there is a shock in the financial system, and this Brian is trying to artificially create this shock.
And in order to expand his influence, I believe that it will not be long before he will increase his investment, so the sooner he follows him, the greater the harvest.
Although I don't know why Jin Xiaoqiang made such a decision, Brian and Huang Guotao still went out to carry out Jin Xiaoqiang's instructions, after all, Jin Xiaoqiang had also put forward very outrageous instructions before, but in the end they both won. …,
Now they'd rather believe in Him for once......
It took more than a week of effort, and the funds of the Thunderbird company finally began to quietly enter the market through a place of retail investors, you must know that two billion US dollars is not a small amount, and after being smashed by Brian's two billion, the difference between 0703 and 0704 has risen to three US dollars, and now in the case of the quiet entry of the Thunderbird company's funds, this difference has been smashed to 35 US dollars.
And saw Amarans and Brian, who had the Allies starting to enter. Hunter was even more happy, he made another move, this time it was still not weaker than before, and he threw out $2.5 billion again.
After the funds were smashed, the price difference between 0703 and 0704 has risen to 42 US dollars, and the retail investors who were still a little hesitant, as well as other investment institutions, were a little unable to sit still, although the price and supply of natural gas in the current market are quite stable.
But who can guarantee that Hurricane Cortrina won't happen again in a month's time, given that the United States has a reputation as the home of tornadoes.
When I think about the crazy growth of natural gas prices after last year's hurricanes, many people are suddenly enthusiastic.
Obviously, some people continue to be not optimistic about the season of hurricanes in August, so since someone has already expressed their position, everyone might as well keep up, even if they can't make any money, at least they can follow the excitement, right?
The stock and futures markets are like that, if someone buys something, the more people buy it, and the more people buy it, the higher the price of such a thing.
It is under the influence of such factors, as well as investment banks that continue to follow the trend and join the influence of institutions, that the price difference between the 0703 contract and the 0704 contract is getting higher and higher.
People are betting that there will be a hurricane like last year in August this year, and even if there is no hurricane, the shadow brought by last year's hurricane cannot be so simply lingered.
And by the end of July, the difference between 0703 and 0704 had risen to a very outrageous ten dollars, and even so, that Brian. Hunter is still tirelessly throwing money into the market.
And until this time, Huang Guotao and Bryan of Thunderbird Company understood the power of their boss, don't look at the price and supply of natural gas in the market are very stable, but if the people's hearts are unstable, what if the price and supply of those natural gas are stable?
