In January, there was a strong wind in London, and there was often a little light rain in the sky, and the sticky and wet feeling was like the rainy season, which made Jerry very uncomfortable!

All right! It's the first time I'm in the UK, so let's just do it! There is really no other way but this!

The London gold market has a long history. Since 1804, London has replaced the Amsterdam Exchange in the Netherlands as the center of refining, sales and exchange of shijie gold, and since 1919, the London gold market has implemented a daily pricing system, with two daily prices in the morning and afternoon. The gold market price of the day is determined by the five major gold banks (the five major gold banks are Rothschild International Investment Bank, Maple Leaf Bank of Canada, Deutsche Bank, HSBC Bank of America and Credit Suisse First Boston), which is the most important gold price of Shijie, which has affected the trading of the gold market in New York and Hong Kong. The main supplier of gold in the market is South Africa. Prior to 1982, the London Gold Market was mainly engaged in spot gold trading, and in April 1982, the London Gold Futures Market opened.

"Jerry, do you really want to short gold?" Robert. Soros is worried, because the international price of gold basically floats in a certain range, and it is not as manipulative as stocks or other futures.

"There is this idea! But how to do it, I think we need to ask the experts! Rest assured, Robert, even if I wanted to short the price of gold, it wouldn't be now! ”

"I hope you'll think about it!"

Jerry shrugged his shoulders.

The idea of making a splash in the gold market is indeed a bit abrupt.

Jerry's main purpose is to meet the thief a year later, Leo. Vantaa!

Of course, in order not to attract the attention of the FBI, he had to intervene in the gold market to make further contact with this latent figure. Isn't he shorting? Well, then before he shorts the gold market, we take a long position (in futures trading, the position that is reduced after buying a long futures contract is called a long position, in short, it is a bullish position)! On 2 August 1990, Iraqi forces invaded Kuwait, overthrew the Government of Kuwait and declared its annexation. The United States-led multinational force, with a United Nations mandate, began its military offensive against Iraqi forces in Kuwait and Iraq on 16 January 1991. Once the Gulf War starts, the price of oil will inevitably soar! And the international gold price, which is closely related to oil futures, is bound to soar!

For Leo. Vantaa, Jerry's admiration is more than just a surging river!

In January and February 1991, this legendary figure shorted a total of 2,000 tons of gold, forcing the rising international gold price to plummet. The Soviet Union, which had relied on gold exports as a lifesaver, was finally dissolved on December 25, 1991, after the collapse of gold, which deepened its domestic crisis.

Although it is not true to say that he single-handedly stole the $27.5 trillion wealth of the Soviet Union since its founding, Leo Vantaa's shadow was real in the process of the collapse of the Soviet Union.

"Hello, Mr. Mason! I'm Bob. Cummings! Bob inherited the tall and strong bloodline of the American, although he has black hair and black eyes, but under the long-term milk feeding, he has a height of 1.7 meters at the age of 13. Compared to Soros, it is still a little worse, but in Jerry's eyes, this is enough, at least as a person standing in front of the stage, his height is enough! What's more, he's only 13 years old, and he's still growing taller!

"Hello, Mr. Clemmings!"

Transactions in the gold market are generally carried out through gold brokers. Mason is a gold broker who has a golden seat in the expensive London gold market! This is also the case with Robert. Soros contacts haode gold broker in advance! …,

Although it is only a general futures operation, having a gold broker will still save a lot of trouble! Jerry doesn't want to be like the 1987 Wall Street stock market crash, because he was under tremendous pressure to go into battle in person! In this case, it is too hard! Yes, not at all for his hard work!

Due to the impact of the small crash of the Wall Street stock market around October 1989 and the bursting of the bubble in the Japanese stock market in December, the international gold price is now 345.90 US dollars per ounce, and it is gradually recovering!

Jerry's order was very simple, and before February 1991, as long as the price of gold did not fall below $400 per ounce, Royer. Mason can continue to buy gold futures contracts! That is, they are taking a short position against the price of $400 gold! Once it falls below this price, sell all futures contracts immediately!

This is a crazy behavior, because such an operation behavior is simply to kill the wrong person and not let it go!

Over the course of almost a year of operation, the number of gold futures contracts will accumulate like a hill.

"Do you really want to do that?" Royer. After listening to Clemmings' description, Mason felt that his head was big.

Is this guy human?

No! Definitely not!

If so, how could he be so crazy about making short positions in gold!

This simply doesn't make sense!

Could it be that their money is black money?

Besides, what kind of reason is there to explain such desperate gambling?

"Of course, Mr. Mason. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have come to you through Mr. Soros. You're an experienced broker, and I think you should know which futures contracts you can buy and which you can't! Your job is to help me pick the most profitable contract! I don't need those junk contracts, understand? You don't need to bother with everything else! $400 per ounce, here's the stop limit I gave you! Of course, we will give you one of the highest commissions in a London gold bank. "Bob. Clemmings stared at Royer. Mason's eyes, "How about it, Mr. Mason, do you have the guts to take this commission from us!" ”

(The trading content of most gold futures markets on Shijie is basically similar, mainly including margin, contract unit, delivery month, minimum volatility limit, futures delivery, commission, daily trading volume, and order orders)

Royer. Mason hesitated for a moment, "I just hope that the money you have flowing into the London gold market is not black money!" ”

Obviously, before Jerry and his party came to the door, Royer. Mason had done some research, and at the very least, he knew that the King's Fund was located in the Andrés Islands in the Caribbean, which is the supreme tax haven, and in addition to that, it was also a place where black money flowed.

Bob and Jerry looked at each other, then hahadaxiao, "Mr. Mason, I think you're very humorous!" ”

"Mr. Cummings, please don't take this as a joke! If your money is really black money, I'm sorry, I'm Royer. Mason doesn't do this business of yours! ”

"Alright, Mr. Mason, rest assured, every money we make will have a proof of origin! We will guarantee the legitimacy of this money! Of course, if you are not at ease, we can sign a waiver contract, how about it? ”

Eventually, Royer. Mason still agreed to the commission of the King's Fund, after all, that generous commission is something he can't shirk no matter what!

Alas~ It's a pity, I finally came to the UK, but I didn't meet Kate. Beckinsale, what a failure!

When he stepped on the plane to Moscow's Sheremetev Airport, Jerry looked at the misty London and was filled with emotion. ……，
