Chapter 7: The Ascension of the Chicken and the Dog

What Sakata didn't know was that today's Zhongshi not only gained a lot, but also forced out the predators lurking in the market to a large extent.

"Who could it be? Or maybe it's an institution that is shorting the stock market? Sitting in the Mercedes Benz back to Repulse Bay, Zhong Shi pondered bitterly.

The Mercedes-Benz is a scooter that I just bought, and as for the sky-high Porsche, it is not yet time to pick up the goods. Zhong Shi had no choice but to buy a more "ordinary" Mercedes-Benz business car for his own use.

Somewhat similar to later generations, Mercedes-Benz cars are also a high-end and atmospheric model at this time, and not many ordinary people can afford to buy a Mercedes-Benz just for transportation.

As for the more extravagant Rolls-Royce, Bell Stone doesn't like the antique cars, even though each Rolls-Royce is handmade and the official use of the British royal family.

Some countries in Europe have an aristocratic heritage, especially the United Kingdom, which has always been a royal constitution, the royal family still retains the status of head of state in the constitution, and the British army is also loyal to the queen according to the constitution.

It's just that with the Prime Minister and the Upper and Lower Parliaments, the British royal family is only a nominal head of state, and the actual power is in the Prime Minister's Mansion at 10 Downing Street.

As a typical island country, the British conservative atmosphere is still relatively strong, but compared to some other island countries, it is not so obvious.

Every time the president of the United States visited Britain, he had to practice a traditional set of etiquette in front of the Empress, and at this time, the British press often ridiculed the Americans for their rudeness and ignorance as a way to highlight the former glory of the declining empire.

As a royal car, Rolls-Royce also follows the tradition of self-ownership, not only requiring each car to be handmade, but also carefully selecting customers, claiming that it is not possible to buy this car with money.

As a British colony, Hong Kong has been influenced by the British in many ways, and many of the city's wealthy people prefer British cars, especially Rolls-Royce.

However, Zhong Shi was deeply educated in American culture, accepted the values of freedom and equality, and did not agree with those British styles, and sometimes even sneered.

Think of a person wearing a gentleman's hat, holding a staff of civilization, carrying an antique pocket watch, and a thick velvet trench coat, Zhong Shi thinks it is funny, this set is not feasible in Hong Kong, the weather in Hong Kong and the weather in London are completely two types, if you dress like this, you will have to die of heat.

Due to the lack of information and the weakness of Shili in the United States, Zhong Shi has no way to know the source of this fund, unlike those large institutions and funds in the United States, who may have a rough understanding of his position and the source of funds.

The S&P 500 futures index was issued from 82 years, and people did not know much about this new investment method at the beginning, when the daily trading volume on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange was only about 15,000 lots, but as people became more and more aware of this investment method, the trading volume of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange futures index also increased, becoming a very safe haven for stock investment in the New York Stock Exchange.

As a simple example, those institutions that are long stocks on the New York Stock Exchange can short Chicago futures to hedge their risks, and this is still when there are not many investment varieties. In fact, with the increasing number of financial innovations and trading varieties, various unbelievable trading methods and hedging methods have emerged in an endless stream.

"Such a large sum of money will definitely be shorted on the New York Stock Exchange, which side it is, you will find out another day!" Zhong Shi thought for a long time, but he didn't have a clue, so he simply stopped thinking about it, anyway, he knew that the Dow in New York had reached the highest level in recent years, and the days to come were slowly declining, and in October, this decline suddenly increased, so that on October 18, with the speech of the US Treasury Secretary, this panic that permeated the market was suddenly amplified, and then a rare stock market crash occurred.

"What do you think? It worked so well today, I made so much money in just one repetition, I never thought of it before! Since he came out of the futures company, Zhong Yi has an excited expression on his face, even if it has been more than half a day, he has not calmed down.

"What would happen if I did the wrong thing today?" Zhong Shi looked at his cousin's somewhat forgetful expression and said lightly.

"......" Zhong Yi was a little stunned, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore. If they do it in the wrong direction today, then it will be a situation where tens of millions of dollars will be lost, and they only have a total of 200 million dollars, and at such a rate of loss, it will only take more than ten days to go bankrupt.

Zhong Yi couldn't help but shudder, and a fear rose in his heart. Futures are originally a zero-sum game, someone makes a profit, someone must lose, so being able to survive is the most important, and if you don't make money, you must think of stop loss, so that it can last for a long time.

Looking at his cousin's increasingly serious face, Zhong Shi no longer continued, but said with interest to Lu Hu, who was listening to the two brothers with his ears on the side: "Brother Lu, how did you use the money you earned last time?" ”

Last time, at the instigation of Zhong Shi, Land Rover and several brothers partnered to raise a sum of money and used it to run Zhong Shi, and as a result, they bet on Argentina to win the championship, and Land Rover was also very arrogant, taking three million and sharing it equally with the other three, and each of them received as much as 750,000 Hong Kong dollars.

With money, the first thought of several people is to buy a house, the property market has just recovered in recent years, a few people's money is enough to buy a small apartment, and several people have bought houses in the New Territories, Causeway Bay and other places, which can be regarded as settling down. However, Land Rover has more eyes and is not in a hurry to take the money in his hand to buy a house, and he now lives in Zhongshi's mansion, so he has no such considerations at all.

Land Rover has been thinking about asking Zhong Shi to give him an idea at the right time and give him instructions on how to invest in order to make this money more and more, but there has been no chance, but today the opportunity came.

"I kept that money in the bank, and I don't have any plans for the time being!" Land Rover is a joy, his eyes are still staring ahead, but his heart is alive.

"In the bank, this is the most loss-making, although it is safe, but the return is also the lowest. Have you ever thought about investing in it? Zhong Shi frowned at first, and then asked tentatively.

Although he has a bad relationship with Land Rover, he is not good at making ideas for others when it comes to money. There's a good idea right now, but if you don't use it, it's a bit too wasteful.

Who would have thought that Land Rover was waiting for him, as soon as he heard this, Land Rover's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and his throat kept making a "uh-huh" sound, for fear that Zhong Shi would not see his nodding action.

"At the moment, there are two haode options, one is to invest in the Hang Seng Index, and the other is to put it in the stock market, I don't know which one you want to invest in?" Zhong Shi was also happy when he saw him agree.

"Huh?" Land Rover was obviously stunned for a moment, as soon as his hand slipped, the car involuntarily rushed out, he hurriedly stabilized his mind, tried to pull the car back to the right way, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and then asked carefully: "I don't know what the difference is between the two?" ”

He was envious when he saw that Zhongshi invested in the S&P 500 market and made tens of millions of dollars in just half a day. But then he heard Zhong Shi talk about another situation, and he thought that it was very likely that he had lost tens of millions of dollars.

Thinking about it like this, he was also a little afraid, thinking that this stock index didn't rely on luck? What is the difference between gambling and gambling? So as soon as I heard Zhong Shi say the index, I was a little overwhelmed.

Although he didn't understand what the S&P 500 and the Hang Seng Index were, according to Zhong Shi, the two should be about the same. As for stocks, he has heard a lot about them in the past two years, and he also has a certain understanding of its operating rules.

"What? Hang Seng Index? With his little money, isn't he a mermaid? Zhong Yi said with some surprise.

In May '86, the Hong Kong Futures Exchange successfully launched Hang Seng Index futures, and by October '87, the trading volume had exceeded 25,000 shares, but each contract was an index point multiplied by 50 Hong Kong dollars, and the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index had risen to around 2,000 points at that time, and the value of each contract was about 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which was undoubtedly a lot of money for Land Rover.

When shorting the S&P 500, Zhong Shi also thought about doing something on the Hang Seng Index, but the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index market was too small to achieve his goal of growing capital rapidly.

Hearing Zhong Yi's unintentional words, Land Rover's face couldn't help but turn red, and he quietly turned his head and looked ahead carefully.

"There is a small way to play, as long as the operation is flexible, you can also make a lot of money!" Zhong Shi said without mind. In fact, it is true, although it cannot be easily doubled as much as you like, but a fifty percent income per year is basically worry-free.

"Lao Lu, in fact, if you invest in the Hang Seng Index, you may quickly earn several times in the short term, and if you invest in stocks, you will be able to earn for a long time, although the growth is slow, but it grows with the company, and the future is no less than investing in the Hang Seng Index."

"Then if I invest in the Hang Seng Index, will I lose it all?" Land Rover looked at Zhongyi's face and asked a little cautiously.

"Of course, it's called liquidation, not only can't have a penny left, but you will also be charged for debts!" Zhong Yi had a serious look on his face, obviously he had worked hard in the financial market during this time and knew a lot about futures.

"Then I'd better invest in the stock market!" Land Rover looked at Zhong Shi with the same expression, and knew that what Zhong Yi said was not a lie, he didn't think about it, so he said categorically.

"Okay, you find a brokerage house as soon as possible, and when the time comes, I'll point you out a few stocks." Zhong Shi nodded, and stopped talking.

This kind of risky thing is really not suitable for ordinary people.

(Today, I found that the Shanghai Stock Exchange is about to launch individual stock options, and now I am conducting online training, and interested friends can go and have a look.) )
