Chapter 688 Stoneing You to Death with Money (Part I)

$117, $118, $120. Stefan sat in front of the computer and sneered at the futures market, his orders kept decreasing, and there were fewer and fewer short orders in his hand. Naturally, Stefan took out more and more $100 billion in losses, and the traders under Stefan were each in a cold sweat, and they couldn't help but suggest that Stefan close his position.

Because obviously the opposite side has eaten Stefan has no funds, even if he does not close the position now, there is only one result, that is, it will be eaten away by the other party little by little, because you don't have any funds in your hand, even if every barrel of oil rises by one cent, the short position in Stefan's hand will be forcibly closed a lot to maintain the remaining short orders. And his boss just held on to it.

"Haven't closed the position yet?" The old Rockefeller asked his assistant with some curiosity, although the Covante family has nothing to do with the Rockefeller family, but everyone is considered to be the top wealth family in the world, so everyone naturally knows each other very well, but so far, the funds in the hands of the Covante family have been swallowed up at least nearly 70 billion US dollars, and now they only maintain about 20 billion US dollars of empty orders, and the remaining 10 billion US dollars are basically lost in the process of filling short positions and so on.

"How profitable are we now? What if you close all the positions now? Old Rockefeller pondered for a moment and spoke. At present, we have invested about 18 billion US dollars, because many positions are bought at high prices in order to eat up the other party's short positions, but now there are not too many high-priced short orders, many short orders are purchased at relatively low prices before, if we force the liquidation now, although we have made about 6 billion US dollars from the Covent family before. However, once the position is forced to close now, I am afraid that the profit will be about $1 billion. ”

"So low?" The old Rockefeller was taken aback, the Covant family lost $70 billion and was divided up by them, and now they can only make a profit of less than $10 when they close their positions, and the remaining $5 billion is actually thrown out?

"Yes, because we forcibly raise the price in order to eat them, if we can't close the position all at once, we must maintain the international oil price at the current price for at least three months, so that we can slowly buy short and retreat safely. We must continue to raise oil prices even if necessary. His assistant pushed his glasses.

"How much do you think you can pull up?" Old Rockefeller immediately asked in a deep voice. A premonition welled up in his heart that it was not very good. "According to the current state, it is estimated that the maximum is about $127 per barrel, and our approach now is to attract some retail investors, and then take over our long orders, and then we will steadily retreat ourselves. However, this high price will remain in place for at least three months before we have a chance to redeploy. ”

Why does the Covant family not close the position? Do you really want to fight to the death? But in three months, their short orders must expire first. When the last hope is extinguished, it will be extinguished. "Forcibly flatten it in half." Old Rockefeller thought for a moment. Then he spoke in a deep voice.

"We can't do it now, we need to mobilize new funds to buy short, and now in order to maintain the high price of oil prices, we currently have an extra short order of up to $150 billion above this price, according to our news, several major consortiums in the United States are involved, including several consortiums in Southeast Asia. Even some countries have already participated, and it seems that the U.S. government has also had small sums of money involved. This is also the reason for maintaining high oil prices, everyone is buying long, and no one takes our long orders. Therefore, the price will be high, and only if we short-sell ourselves and sell to ourselves, so as to keep our profits unchanged, can we completely get these mouth-to-mouth profits. ”

After listening to his assistant's words, the old Rockefeller couldn't help but rub his forehead, and after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth decisively and said: "I have about $7 billion in my private bank account, all of which will be handed over to you. Let's buy back the batch of orders with the highest price first. ”

"What do you mean?" His assistant is an assistant who specializes in investment, and naturally he immediately heard the meaning of the old Rockefeller's words, "I think the Covant family should have some back-up, just in case, it is better for us to retreat as soon as possible." The old Rockefeller shook his head, and his assistant hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Sir, probably not, there are more than 150 billion US dollars in the market now, if we don't start shorting slowly, if we want to pull this price down, we need at least close to 200 billion US dollars." Even governments can't come up with such a large sum of money at once. ”

This assistant is right, there are restrictions on the capital investment plans of various governments, but it is not that you want to invest it, you want to invest in futures, although governments will occasionally buy it under the condition of ensuring their victory, but they will not buy it casually, don't think about large-scale capital mobilization, if you let Congress and other people know the Tao, it is impossible for the people to agree, what are you kidding? Futures are like gambling, what if you lose? Therefore, the funds of these countries are generally invested in very safe investment plans.

Although the Rockefeller family's family assets are very large, but most of their family assets are real estate, etc., so the advanced investment is not much, at least in this operation, the Rockefeller family's investment is basically in the middle and low, and it can be seen from the income.

"By the way, is there any news of the Starfall Group?" The old Rockefeller suddenly remembered that some time ago, the Star Fall Group stored 5,000 tons of gold to China's central bank, which caused a sensation in the world at that time, 5,000 tons of gold! In the case that there is not much gold trading on the gold futures market, the Star Fall Group made 5,000 tons of gold? That's not a small number, where did this gold come from? No one knows, and there is no gold that seems to have disappeared from history.

The most is the 1,600 tons of gold that disappeared after the Russian tsar of the year, the problem is that the thing disappeared into Lake Baikal in Russia, which is the most reliable statement, because it is impossible to disappear in other places, and 1,600 tons of gold is not a small number, but in that place, if there is a foreign company entering, the Russian government will know that it is impossible to reach Yang Yiwei's hands at the first time.

Many media speculated that the Starfall Group has always been at the forefront of the world in terms of ocean, especially deep-sea operations, because the Starfall Group is now the only company that is mining deep-sea manganese nodules on a large scale, so these media are speculating that the Starfall Group has found the legendary Daxi Prefecture in the deep sea? Atlantis?

Otherwise, where did all this gold come from? But none of this matters, no matter where the Starfall Group got the gold, they already have it, and the gold has been shipped to China's treasury, which proves that this is true, and ...... Just now his assistant said, that condition...... Starfall Group can achieve it! The elder Rockefeller has not forgotten his impression of the young man.

"Starfall Group?" His assistant was stunned for a while, how could he mention the Starfall Group, but soon he also thought of what the old Rockefeller meant, such a big move in the futures market, there is no consortium in the whole world that may not know the way, although the Starfall Group is now just a company...... A group ...... But people's strength is awesome, even if it is some consortiums, it may not be comparable, and what is even more terrifying is that these strengths are gathered in the hands of one person, just like so many big consortia in the United States, the two major consortia on the east and west coasts, plus Rockefeller and Morgan, but in fact, can they play such a great role as the Starfall Group?

No way! Because the Starfall Group is a voice, Yang Yiwei said that if he goes east, others have no right to refute, but what about these consortia? Although the funds of the overall consortium are very scary, but everyone has a few thousandths of a share, a few percent of the shares, and nearly ten percent of the shares are very small, so the number of shareholders of these consortiums is amazing, you make an investment, you think it is feasible, but not all shareholders think it is feasible, especially when you need to mobilize huge amounts of money.

It is also necessary to get the consent of shareholders, so that in the futures market, stocks, and financial markets, it is easy to have problems, which is also for the reason that the famous investment companies in the international market are not these consortia, but hedge funds such as Soros, not that Soros has a good grasp of the market, but because although people are holding the customer's money in their hands, because of the existence of the contract, once they start, there is no worries.

And these consortia are different, "So why am I going to mobilize funds now?" The old Rockefeller's assistant also became serious, although the Starfall Group did not intervene, no one knew what to do, and even many people ignored the Starfall Group, after all, the Starfall Group was born too shortly, and it has not fallen into the eyes of these traditional consortia enough to be deeply impressed.

"Flatten it as quickly as you can, leaving half of it." Old Rockefeller thought about it, and still said, if it is flattened, at least ensure that there is basically no loss on his side. As soon as the old Rockefeller's voice fell, his assistant's phone rang, and the assistant immediately picked up the phone in his hand and answered it directly, because the phone was from his trader.
