After the meeting in the morning, I got Buffett and Bloomberg, who came all the way at noon.

In the afternoon, Abel went about his routine as usual.

“…… Judging from the monthly and weekly patterns, the international spot gold entered a new upward channel after breaking through the upper track of the rising channel formed since October 2002 last week, and there are signs that the international gold price will enter an acceleration period, which I call the acceleration channel. ”

In the conference room of Smith Capital, Abel leaned back in the boss's chair in an extremely relaxed posture, listening to the group of "Smith Knights" under him explain.

As Smith Capital's corporate culture gradually took shape, "Knights and Kings" became the symbol of the big Wall Street investment bank.

Although compared with other major investment banks, Smith Capital is still far inferior in terms of numbers.

But the impact on various industries, as well as its status on Wall Street, because of its existence as "King Smith", is not lost to several others at all.

Even in terms of appeal and the degree of jealousy they are stronger than Goldman Sachs and Morgen Stanley.

But after all, it doesn't feel like the past. The shotguns had been replaced with cannonballs, and Able didn't need to do everything himself.

Now Smith Capital, many times it can act alone. Only when Abel felt the need did he personally intervene in command.

Or an action initiated by himself, which he needs to work hard.

Otherwise, Smiths Capital, which now has expanded to more than 5,000 people and more than 30 offices around the world, does not need to invest much effort from Abel.

What Abel needs to do to Smith Capital now is generally a high-level job.

Of course, there are certain big trends, such as international gold and oil in large transactions.

He would still be a little concerned to see if Smith's knights had made any unforgivable mistakes, and then guide him.

The advantage of this is that it can prevent the prestige of Knight Smith and his king from being damaged on Wall Street, thus affecting Smith Capital and his "golden body" as a king.

Listening to David Mellon's debriefing, Abel glanced at the briefing a few times.

This week is the 22nd trading week of the year, and the international gold price closed at $11.96 a gram.

However, the London and New York markets use ounces in ounces, which is equivalent to about 28 grams per ounce.

In other words, the international gold price for the week is $334.38 per ounce.

This price, compared to about $190 an ounce when Abel was first reborn, can be said to have risen a lot in less than 4 years, and it is not much worse than doubling.

This rise, without a doubt, has once again hit a new all-time high. But even if there is no "talent", Abel knows that this height will continue to be refreshed.

He vaguely remembered that before he was reborn, a gram of gold seemed to be more than 400 RMB.

When converted into dollars, that's about $1,700 an ounce.

$334/oz is nothing now.

But Abel didn't say anything, and he continued to listen to his subordinates' reports.

“…… At present, from a technical point of view, after the gold price enters the acceleration channel, its upper band may be a new pressure level. $420/oz could serve as a swing high for this rally. ”

Hearing this, Abel nodded, feeling a little relieved.

Because of these subordinates, the calculated high point of the band is similar to that judged by his talent.

And they are not as gifted as themselves, they are calculated through the market and insiders, as well as the corresponding technical models.

This is the difference between a cheating player and a normal high-end player.

This also means, at least now, even if I lose my talent.

Smith's group of knights are still qualified in their professional skills, unlike their own echo worms at the beginning.

Continuing to listen to David's report, Abel glanced at the briefing in his hand again.

In the past year, the large amount of gold he holds in his hands can be said to have made him a lot of money. The British branch also used the pound sterling in its hands to speculate on gold futures.

As of last year, Smith Capital's earnings on gold were around $11 billion.

But just five months or so later, Smith Capital's profit in the new fiscal year has now reached $90.

The speed and magnitude of making money is much faster than last year.

And according to the future market, at least before the end of the year. This number will more than triple, and this year's Smith Capital's earnings report in this regard will look even better than last year.

In terms of international gold, Smith Capital has the hope of reaching more than $250.

This is an exaggerated figure, and it will make Smith Capital even more dazzling.

It will make the entire Smith Financial Group shine in the industry.

"What about crude oil? Who is in charge of crude oil futures? ”

After understanding the gold situation, Abel put aside the gold trading briefing in his hand and picked up the crude oil futures trading briefing next to him.

"I, boss, are our group." As he spoke, a young man with a shiny back combed quickly took out a picture from the folder on the table, handed it to a person next to him, and walked to the projection screen to explain.

Unlike other Abel companies, Smith Capital has been bullish until now.

Just because David Mellon is the CEO of the head office doesn't mean he's in power.

First of all, on the European side, Jace is decentralizing power, and secondly, on the American side, there are other corresponding elites competing with David in different fields.

David, the CEO, only enjoys the social influence brought by this position, and the power is not as much as one person under ten thousand people as outsiders imagine.

There are many reasons for this, one of which is the reason why David Mellon's surname is Mellon.

And Mellon, after the split, has always been very close to Rockefeller, especially this one in New York.

Therefore, David's decentralization was predestined a long time ago.

"After breaking through the psychological resistance level of 35 yuan / barrel, crude oil has maintained a strong momentum, closing at $41 / barrel this week, setting a record for a single month in history in April."

“…… As you have seen, crude oil is indeed entering an acceleration period at present. Although the rise is large, from the perspective of the weekly pattern, the K-line pattern is relatively even, the trend is stable, and it will not be the last madness. I've always believed that the end of a trend can only be judged after the final madness, and the same goes for gold. ”

Abel nodded, he knew very well that he was talented.

Since George came to power, the world economy is suffering from "high oil prices" due to the continuous depreciation of the dollar.

Since the beginning of this year, oil prices in the international market have been rising steadily, approaching historical highs.

Among them, there is a large amount of speculative capital coming in, but more importantly, the uncertainty factor in geopolitical justice -

In front there was Fu Khan, and after there was Rakyin.

Despite the two wars, the current external rhetoric of the Elephant Party has been victorious. But both the Donkey Party and the discerning people know that in order to turn victory into spoils of war, the United States must continue to invest military power and military spending.

When it will be a head, it is not seen at all.

These two wars have transformed the situation in the whole of West Asia from the stability of the 90s to turmoil.

West Asia is also the world's most important oil producer.

The combination of this factor has caused too many speculators to put their money into oil.

All these have contributed to the rise in oil prices.

After the young man's report, Abel spoke again to make a summary:

"The profit point is set at $49 per barrel, we can't be too greedy, no country will accept such a high oil price. 50 US dollars may be the pressure line of various countries to suppress, you can't always let the group of local tyrants in the desert profit, after the profit escapes, you can backhand short, remember not to be greedy, just leave with a profit, I think there will be a big harvest. ”

Although oil prices will continue to rise, after all, it is only 2003.

Ultra-high oil prices, approaching $100 per barrel, will not appear until at least two or three years later.

In recent years, when the U.S. industry had not yet moved away, and when the U.S. had not yet transformed into an oil exporter.

The United States is also a powerful fighter in suppressing high oil prices, so the "high price" of about $49 a barrel is now the limit.

If the price of oil is really high, it will not really start until the financial capital of the United States succeeds in deindustrializing the United States.

When the world police. Chacha didn't need much oil to sustain its industry, but instead began to sell oil to make money as a resource country.

Then the price of oil cannot be cheap, this is the reality.

In addition to gold and oil, Abel's investment in other aspects of Smith Capital didn't care much.

In other aspects, it is decent. Other investment banks have businesses, and Smith Capital does the same.

With Abel's name and the endorsement of the already powerful Smith Financial Group, Smith Capital is only stronger than Goldman Sachs in this area.

Today's Smith Capital has entered a positive cycle.

To put it mildly, even if Abel loses his talent or burps right now.

Smith Capital can also maintain its development, and may not be able to be the top six investment banks on Wall Street, but it can at least rank in the top 20 in the field of investment banking.

Because the boss was not interested in the content behind, this regular meeting of Smith Capital also came to an end for the time being.

The others began to leave, and David and the other two leaders stayed behind to listen to the rest of the boss's explanation.

Reaching out and picking up the coffee cup on the edge of the desk, he took a sip of it beautifully, smashed his mouth, and enjoyed the harmless sunlight shining in from the floor-to-ceiling window next to him, Abel narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lazily to David and the other two executives:

"A free gold market tends to reflect and measure the degree of confidence in the currency. Gold is a sensitive and accurate yardstick for predicting future inflation, and has the unique ability to predict inflation better than consumer prices. ”

"When inflation quietly comes, you can increase your gold holdings. Or ask yourself, have you regained confidence in the dollar, which continues to depreciate? Have inflationary pressures in the US and globally eased? ”

"If the answer is no, then we don't have to wait for others to tell us where the international gold price will go."

David and the other two executives were nodding, equally impressed.

With an open boss like Abel, their job is to understand all the ways they can make money and give advice to the younger boss, whether it's gold, crude oil, or other financial products.

All that's left is to listen to the boss and use your ingenuity.

After a few more conversations, I explained the matters that Smith Capital should pay attention to in the next few months in international gold and international crude oil.

Then Abel asked David and them to go out, and called in several important people in charge, such as Allen and Smith Intelligence.

The Smith Intelligence Group has grown from 7 people at the beginning to a medium and large company with a total of 1,000 employees and more than a dozen office locations around the world.

The company's current business encompasses a wide range of businesses.

For example, one of them is mainly responsible for keeping an eye on the various investments involved in the boss's funds, and making predictions and conducting risk assessments every day.

Another is to evaluate the assets that the boss is interested in, make a plan to buy or even make an acquisition, including but not limited to an antique car or a company with a market value of 10 billion dollars.

But in summary, the only job of the owner of this company is to revolve around the boss of Abel Smith.

They only need to be accountable to Abel, they don't need to report to the Texas consortium, and they don't need to report to other companies in the Smith department.

They are Abel's "Military Aircraft Department", "Upper Study", and "Cabinet".

Many of these elites have gone out to serve as middle and senior managers in other Smith and Texas consortium companies.

This made the company, secretly nicknamed "Smith's West Point".

It means that the people who come out of this company will be more trusted by Abel Smith, the "principal".

The middle and upper echelons of the Smith department composed of these people will also give Abel real control over most of the assets under his name.

There will be no large-scale overthrow of him as a boss.

"Let a few of you come over, for a simple reason. As you may know, Smith Wisdom is going to be reorganized. ”

To Allen and them, Abel said directly: "After the restructuring, you will be both my think tank and my trilateral committee, and things are as simple as that." ”

As soon as the boss's words fell, the senior executives of the Smith Intelligence Group present all looked happy.

Think tank or something, that's their job. But if Smith's Trilateral Commission came to fruition, they would be too excited.

On the bright side, the Trilateral Commission of the United States is an international non-governmental policy research organization founded in 1973 by scholars from 14 countries in North America, Western Europe, and Neon, as well as political and economic leaders.

Representatives of the three regions are required to meet on a rotational basis as hosts every nine months.

The Rockefeller consortium and the Mahogon consortium in the United States, the Deutsche Bank consortium, BNP Paribas consortium, the Anglo-Dutch Shell oil consortium in Europe, and the chairman or manager of Neon Electric's Toshiba Electric, Sumitomo Chemical, Nippon Steel, Nissan Motor, Neon Seiko, Neon Electric, Hitachi Manufacturing, Panasonic Electric, and Toyota Corporation are all members of the organization.

Former U.S. Commander Carter and officials who once held important positions in the government, such as Zbigniew Brzezinski and Vance, are also members of the Trilateral Commission.

Do you see? If you don't understand it, let's just say it - in fact, this thing is "Rockphil, Morgun, and their international doglegs......

It is an organization that is used by the combined Mahogon and Rockphil to control and influence all regions and consortia in the world that they can influence, while controlling the interior.

It can be seen as the embodiment of the international influence of the Mahogon Rockphil consortium.

If Smith Wisdom can become Smith's trilateral committee, it means that its power will become more solid and powerful on the basis of what it is now.

How can these people be upset about this?

Watching these people, including Allen, try to suppress their excitement.

Abel smiled, this was actually his preparation for the joint consortium.

He's thinking bigger now.

Since it is a joint consortium, why does it have to be an American consortium, not a world consortium?

As long as you can focus on yourself, you can make your voice louder and more influential.

Of course, the more the better.

And the reorganized Smith Intelligence Company is one of the means of preparation for his future intention to control and influence this world consortium.
