Chapter 1862 A Small Income of 550 Million
The futures market has always been weird and unpredictable, and all kinds of shady operations make laymen confused.
For example, the recent surge in copper prices is dizzying.
From the initial price of 880 yuan/ton, to 1,300 yuan/ton, and then to break the 1,500 yuan/ton mark, it went straight to 1,700 yuan/ton, which made people dumbfounded.
Is copper goods going to soar into the sky?
Telephone lines all over the world are busy. From time to time, overseas calls are disconnected and busy, causing the person on the call to grab the microphone and slam it on the phone, yelling "F-K," F-K. ’
Copper mines in South Africa, South America, Indonesia and other places have experienced problems one after another, and output has fallen one after another.
The demand in Japan, Europe and other countries is increasing day by day, the market supply exceeds demand, and prices naturally rise.
However, this crisis came so unexpectedly that it even felt a little ridiculous.
Suddenly armed threats broke out in various places, and the mines were either in crisis or experiencing collective strikes.
Including giants like AD-B have also been affected, and even they are unable to fight against this chaos, which sounds too strange.
But no matter what people think, more and more "insider" information is spread by word of mouth in the market, making it unpredictable.
In short, no matter how confused you are, making money now is real.
As a result, major investment companies and banks also joined in, and national-level athletes began to become cautious.
Only the two investment institutions in the United States, supported by Washington, are rampaging in the market, showing a rebellious behavior that refuses to accept anyone.
1801 yuan/ton.
Under the joint efforts of many forces, the international copper price began to soar towards the 2,000 yuan mark.
Compared with the previous price of 880 yuan/ton, the increase reached 104%.
In 45 days, the price of copper has increased much more than in the past 50 years.
Some powerful retail investors have made a lot of money, but it is the national players and international giants that really affect the price trend.
AD-B remained silent during this turmoil, while the stock price of UUS (American Steel) was suppressed and it also remained silent.
Steel companies controlled by giants such as Mellon,
He also kept silent about it.
This weird situation made it difficult for retail investors to understand, and the savvy people began to choose to wait and see, while the greedy people put all their wealth in with a gambling mentality.
The giants at the center of the vortex began a new round of plans.
They want copper prices to reach the 2,000 yuan/ton mark.
Wells Fargo and its cooperative institutions, which bought at 1,401 yuan/ton, are quietly clearing the goods.
"It takes two days to ship the goods. If it is faster, it will be easily noticed. The revenue this time is about 500 million to 530 million, and the total investment is 2 billion US dollars."
Looking at his boss's calm face, David Unkos, the director of the investment department, was full of admiration for him.
In just 45 days, more than 500 million US dollars were collected in the futures market. What a huge deal.
But David Unkos still had some small regrets in his heart. Time was too short.
If they are given enough time in the early stage, they can raise at least double the amount of funds and earn over $1 billion in profits.
"David, you can't be too greedy." Li Zitao said with a smile.
Because it has not been completely cleared, the price will fluctuate with the transaction volume, and the final income will inevitably be affected.
"Notify our partners that they still have three days to withdraw." This wave of gains is almost over, and it's time to cut a wave of leeks.
The price of copper mines has skyrocketed, and no one knows the pressure Aegis was facing some time ago.
Almost all well-informed organizations believe that this incident was planned by SHIELD.
Even if it wasn't planned, it was the fuse it lit.
Li Zitao has been carrying this blame for a long time. In order to avoid being called to explain everything, he had to hide in Cape Town during this period.
Fortunately, the 'Four Golden Flowers' are with him, and the skills of the hand-to-hand combat master have become more and more pure, and he can eat as much seafood as he wants.
Even if they are a bit weak, they have to do "life factor care" every now and then. It's for four people. Who can withstand this!
Two days later, Wells Fargo cleared the last order.
Unexpectedly, the price would increase instead of falling, and the final revenue would reach US$550 million. Li Zitao could only say: Excellent!
Not only are the giants continuing to enter the market and driving up prices, but also a large number of retail investors who are blinded by money are also buying with all their strength.
Futures Markets Interim Operations Department, Cape Town.
More than 60 telephones are placed in every corner of the room, and 16 telephones are always open and connected to the United States, London, Germany, and Luxembourg.
32 operators are on call 24 hours a day, every 12 hours. If you feel sleepy, you can go to the next room to rest. The entire second floor has been completely blocked.
Except for Li Zitao and Annie, or with his orders, no one else was allowed to leave.
"How is the mobilization of funds going?" As the financial entity of the Lee Group, the amount of funds that Wells Fargo can mobilize is staggering.
Relying on its close relationship with Rockefeller (Manhattan Chase), Mellon (Bank of New York), and McCormy (First Bank of Chicago).
L-BhG controls nearly a hundred banks, including Deutsche Bank, which is a controlling shareholder. This force is modest even if it says it is as rich as the enemy.
After 45 days of planning, L-BhG gathered a huge amount of US$8.5 billion overseas.
In this era of relatively backward technology, only a consortium can mobilize such a huge amount of funds in such a short period of time.
As for the specific plans, Li Zitao and representatives from each company did not explain much.
A simple and shocking sentence: I am personally responsible for this transaction.
The extent of Li Zitao's influence in this regard can be seen from Rockefeller's move of mobilizing US$2.2 billion without saying a word.
Mellon also subscribed for US$2 billion and asked if he could wait longer and subscribe for another US$1.5 billion.
McCormick's side is slightly weaker, but it still spent $800 million in one go.
One phone call, $6 billion, this is the power of legend and credibility.
How much Li Zitao earned during the Great Depression and the silver market, his analysts probably have an estimate based on time and operating traces.
There is no fancy operation, just enter directly, make money and leave!
The operation method is like a rookie, but its profitability is blinding to everyone.
It felt like there was "inside information", and everything was under his control, and there would be no surprises at all.
This time, there were rumors in the circle that SHIELD deliberately provoked it, and everyone said it was true, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
As the leader of the core family of the consortium, they naturally would not listen to the rumors, but at this time Li Zitao personally stood up and expressed his intention to end it personally.
Oh ho~ The answer is already obvious.
Even if he is not behind the scenes, it must be related to him. Why don't you just follow the meat eating?
