425. Short the US dollar
So if you want to short the United States at this juncture, this road will not work at all, even if you make money, I'm afraid you won't spend it, because then the CIA and FBI will chase you down, which is no joke.
So how can you take this opportunity to make a fortune in the United States? In fact, as long as you use your brain, it is not impossible to operate, and one of the easiest ways to do this is to short the dollar.
Since Bush Jr. took office, the United States has not performed very well in its import and export trade, and its import and export trade with the European Union, China, and Japan has always been in a state of deficit, and the US Government has been running deficits one after another.
As a matter of fact, the Bush administration has long been thinking about lowering the exchange rate of the US dollar to stimulate import and export trade, but there has been no suitable excuse, and it is not very feasible to operate rationally commercially.
The most important thing is that if the dollar is lowered without any external force and domestic economic pressure, it is likely to cause a crisis of confidence in the dollar.
After all, the European Union, which has just emerged in the past two years, and their euro have performed very eye-catching, especially the euro, which has been very strong during this time, and on the Asian side, there are even some countries that intend to use the euro as a reserve currency, which makes the Americans who have long tasted the sweetness of the dollar as a shijie currency how can they accept it?
If the exchange rate of the dollar is lowered voluntarily, it will cause the dollar to lose more international trust, and the US government has always been in a deficit and has to rely on the issuance of treasury bonds every year to maintain its operation.
If the dollar loses credit, then who will buy your US Treasuries?
But if you don't lower the exchange rate of the dollar. Then in the country George W. Bush. They also have to face the pressure of import and export traders. Especially for exporters.
Now because of the price of the US dollar, their products are in the shijie range, and they are not competitive at all!
General Motors, Microsoft, and other domestic export giants will certainly be unhappy with George W. Bush, which will affect his re-election two years later.
However, bin Laden's two planes helped Bush Jr. solve all the problems.
Basically not waiting for the US government to do it. The price of the U.S. dollar in the international market is to turn straight down, and the first step for many foreign investors to enter the United States is to convert their own currency into U.S. dollars, and then invest in the U.S. market.
In this way, the dollar has become a strong commodity in the market, but when the United States is attacked by terrorism, because of the consideration of the safety of their own capital, many foreign investors will choose to withdraw from the United States one after another, so that they will abandon a lot of dollar assets. Then exchange the dollar for another currency and withdraw from the United States. This will cause a sudden explosion in the supply of dollars in the market, and the price of the dollar will inevitably fall.
In addition, in order to save the domestic financial market, Bush Jr. asked the Federal Reserve to open the floodgates and release water, which will also have a contributing effect to the depreciation of the dollar, so after entering September, it will definitely be very profitable to start shorting the dollar.
Not only is it very profitable, but it may even become Li Yifan's real first pot of gold, and become the cornerstone of his future business empire!
Now he still has more than 100 million dollars in his hand, last year from Qi Mantian and Wan Yajun, knocked out 200 million dollars, and later snatched about 8 million from the hands of those Albanians, but after paying the old Edmund's ranch payment, he still has 108 million dollars left.
Originally, he planned to find a suitable project to invest in China, but he didn't expect that the family's businesses were running well, coupled with the Shuguang Construction Company controlled by his eldest brother-in-law, and the continuous cash inflow caused him to have a very abundant cash on hand, so although the family also opened a lot of new projects last year, the money has not been used.
At the beginning, he picked up the net for Wang Teng, and except for 30 million yuan, the rest of the money was kept in the bank and left untouched, which was a bit of a waste in Li Yifan's opinion, but this time it was finally usable.
The money has been kept in a Swiss bank, and it is not like that, but this time it is used just in time, and if it is done properly, it may not be a problem to double it.
Playing foreign exchange indexes, this is very risky, but the profit is also very large, it is possible to double these assets in minutes, but to carry out such operations, he is not proficient, so it is better to find some professionals.
Since waiting for Heidi's news from Billy more than a month ago, Li Yifan has been thinking about what to do with the resources in Li Yong and Heidi's hands.
He had also spoken to Heidi on the phone a few times before, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he believed that Heidi must have a lot of bank stocks and other assets in her hands, after all, her cheap dad is a big man who often deals with banks.
So when she asked her for this matter, she was the most trustworthy, and sure enough, Heidi did not disappoint herself, and when she made a request with her, she agreed without thinking about it.
But now that she asked, she couldn't tell her, because Li Yifan really didn't know how to explain it to Heidi.
Could it be that in a little more than a month, that madman bearded man in Afghanistan will kidnap two planes to ram the World Trade Center in the United States, and I plan to take advantage of this time to short the dollar?
Isn't that a joke? Who would believe that?
The current United States is the number one NO.1, but anyone with a normal brain will not go to the Americans to tease the tiger's whiskers during this time period, not to mention that in the past hundred years, there has never been a war in the United States, let alone suffered any heavy losses, so no one will believe it at all.
Since it can't be said, it's like a separate way to prevaricate the past.
"Recently, the economic situation in the United States does not seem to be ideal, Bush Jr. is a completely conservative stupid, engaged in politics, he may have a set, but in the economy, he is not as good as his predecessor, and now the European Union launched the euro is very strong, so I plan to engage in exchange rate investment, you know, last year I made a batch of funds, but it has been in the bank, not much movement, this year or so, I am very busy, I have no time to think about this money, now I have time, so I think about making some investment to see."
Li Yifan's explanation made Heidi nod, is it still like saying this, how much money this kid has, Heidi knows, after all, the money was only washed through her uncle.
"However, I heard that the risk of investing in the exchange rate is quite large, the fluctuation of the exchange rate is very large, and it is very fast, and there are many factors in the hand, and one will lose money if you are not careful!"
Heidi stared at Li Yifan with blue eyes, looked at Li Yifan very seriously and said, Li Yifan smiled slightly after hearing it, and then said.
"It doesn't matter if I lose it all, who made me meet a little rich woman recently, if I go bankrupt, you will support me!"
Li Yifan said and smiled, and then patted it gently, the greasy round buttocks in his hand felt real and good, and his heart was shaken.
"Okay, then I wish you a good family, it's best if you don't have a dime left......"
Heidi suddenly raised her head, looked at Li Yifan very seriously and said.
"Wow, you vicious woman......"
Li Yifan's heart warmed, and then he reached out violently to attack the pair of magnificent murder weapons on Heidi's chest, Heidi not only did not hide, but stood up, and then a fierce man plunged into Li Yifan's arms, and the two of them quickly became entangled in this big bed again......
When Li Yifan woke up, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was the hottest time of the day outside, Heidi next to him was still sleeping in Haitang Spring, he got up and picked up the pants scattered on the ground, and then took out the phone and looked at it, sure enough, it showed that there were three missed calls, and when I looked closely, they were all called by Tang Tian.
Li Yifan hurriedly walked to the living room outside the bedroom, and then dialed back Tang Tian, with a little guilt in his heart.
The phone rang a few times, but no one picked it up, or it became the state that the phone you dialed was on the phone, and it seemed that Xiao Nizi was angry.
Li Yifan smiled helplessly, put the phone aside first, then went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then picked up the phone and dialed Tang Tian again, and this time the call was quickly connected.
"Humph! Mr. Li, you are a busy man, why did you remember to call me? ”
Listening to Tang Tian's slightly angry tone on the phone, Li Yifan couldn't help but think of the scene when she was angry and liked to wrinkle her little nose.
"I'm so sorry, Tiantian, hehe! I forgot to tell you yesterday, I bought a house here in Pudong, and I've been buying furniture or something for the past two days. ”
"What? Did you buy a house in Pudong? ”
Tang Tian was also taken aback when he heard it, how did he buy it in Pudong, aren't there many good houses in Puxi now on the market? This kid is fast enough, and he bought a house in Pudong in one day's work!
Yesterday, all day long, she was dragged out by his aunt and uncle to socialize, to visit her father's old friends in Puhai, and she didn't have time to talk to Li Yifan on the phone, so she didn't expect this kid to buy a house in one day.
"Hehe, yes, it's next to the Jin Mao Building where I live, I drove around here yesterday, I wanted to help my sister look at the façade, but I didn't see much of the façade of haode, but I happened to fall in love with this house. Puxi over there, there are many people and cars, they are dense buildings or something, I don't like it very much, it just happens that there are newly developed villas here, and the environment is not bad, I bought it! ”
As soon as Li Yifan explained like this, Tang Tian understood, he had been dating Li Yifan for so long, their family was rich, Tang Tian had known it for a long time, people like to live in villas if they are rich, of course, this is understandable.
"By the way, big villain, when are you coming to me?" (To be continued......)
