Chapter Eight Hundred and Thirty Eight Was Regarded as a Fat Sheep
Chapter 838 Being Treated as a Fat Sheep
Philip Brothers, established more than 70 years ago, is a well-known large-scale listed financial institution on Wall Street, with a market value of more than four billion US dollars.
What supports its high share price is its strength and position in the commodity futures market.
Philip Brothers is the largest commodity futures dealer in the world today, with branches in 45 countries, trading more than 160 kinds of commodities.
It can be said that Philip Brothers stomped its feet, and the futures industry had to shake.
The reason why Philip Brothers can grow to this point is inseparable from the efforts of the dead brothers Gavin Philip and Jess Philip, but Philip Brothers can grow to this point, and it is also inseparable from the help of the Jewish community.
That's right, the Philip brothers are all Italian Jews. They came to the United States to work hard at the beginning of this century. During this period, they were helped by the Jewish community of Wall Street before they were able to rise rapidly.
Of course, many of the shares of Philip Brothers are also distributed in the hands of various Jewish families. The largest shareholding is the Philip Family Foundation, which holds 27.8% of the shares.
It's just that since the death of the Philip brothers, although there have been many elites in the Philip family, they are not capable of running the Philip brothers company.
Therefore, after breaking away from the founder, Philip Brothers embarked on the path that most American companies will take, looking for outstanding partners to lead Philip Brothers to continue to grow.
For more than ten years, Philip Brothers has gradually weakened the family color, but the internal relationship has become more and more complicated, and even involved in the struggle of major family consortia. This can be seen from the list of shareholders of Philip Brothers. figure it out.
Who made Philip Brothers the largest commodity futures trading company?
This day, with clear skies, was a good golf day.
Albert Raphael, director, executive vice president, and general manager of rare metals investments at Philip Brothers, made a low-key visit to the New York golf course.
Here, he met an old man with curly blond hair in a suit who asked him out, Hida Allen, a director of the First National Bank of Chicago.
"Albert, it's 8:59:30,
You were almost late. "
Shea Allen jokes with Albert Raphael shaking hands.
Albert Raphael shrugged and smiled: "Isn't it late? Hida, you know, I'm always on time!"
"OK, it's really on time, let's go."
Shida Allen smiled indifferently, and then the two walked towards the scheduled No. 8 court together.
After a while, the two of them changed into their sportswear, picked up their clubs, and went to the green grassy course to play golf, and chatted at the same time.
Albert Raphael asked First National Bank of Chicago about its investment intentions and what was going on inside the bank, while Hilda Allen was emotional about what was going on inside Philip Brothers.
For these unspoken information, the two seemed to chat without any scruples.
Of course, if you know the relationship between the two, you can understand.
Although Albert Raphael is a director of Philip Brothers, his directorship is given by First National Bank of Chicago, because the First National Bank of Chicago holds 5.4% of the shares of Philip Brothers.
Therefore, Albert Raphael was the representative of the First National Bank of Chicago, and he was obliged to let the First National Bank of Chicago know the specific situation of Philip Brothers.
Chatting and chatting, Albert Raphael asked Shea Allen's real intentions. He didn't believe that the latter just ran over from Chicago and asked him to play golf.
"Xida, does the company have any orders that I need to implement?"
Xida Allen didn't answer immediately, and looked at the hole in the distance attentively. After finding the position, he looked at the golf ball on the grass again, and swung the club with lightning speed, his eyes flying with the white ball.
"Wow, the ball is in, Hida, your game has improved again."
Albert Raphael exclaimed.
Xida Allen smiled, picked up the towel draped over his shoulders, soaked the sweat on his face, and said to Albert Raphael, "Albert, the company needs you to clean up someone."
Albert Raphael's curiosity was piqued.
The First National Bank of Chicago is the second largest bank among the four major financial cores of the Chicago consortium. Isn't the bank's focus now on developing the commercial loan and bond market? Why did you give him such an order all of a sudden?
Who does this mean?
The chaos inside the Chicago consortium emerges in my mind, the Rockefeller consortium, the Morgan consortium, the McCormick family, the Wood family and the Crown family...
Thinking of this, Albert Raphael's head suddenly became big, and he shook his head slightly to clear these things that had nothing to do with him out of his mind.
No matter who he meant, he pretended not to know, and just executed the order.
"Xida, let's talk, what is the specific situation, I have to see if I can help, you know, there are obvious factions in Philip Brothers, mainly Jewish, they are too shrewd, although I am the vice president of the company. , but there are a lot of places where I said it doesn’t count.”
Albert Raphael said reluctantly, get the vaccine first.
Shida Allen said with a smile: "If you can't do it, I won't look for you."
"I have a goal, I am going long on the senior copper futures and aluminum futures of the New York Mercantile Exchange, and the amount of capital is not small. This is a fat sheep. It only entered the US futures market this year. make huge profits.”
Albert Raphael narrowed his eyes and asked, "Which company it is, let's see if I know."
He is the general manager of the rare metal futures investment department of Philip Brothers, and each metal future is invested by different departments under him, so he can do the advanced copper futures and aluminum futures mentioned by Heida Allen. of.
"Galaxy Fund, have you heard of it? It's a branch established by Chinese in New York."
Shida Allen said.
Albert Raphael frowned. It was a little familiar at first, but he couldn't remember it when he thought about it.
But he was certain that he had definitely seen the information about the Galaxy Fund somewhere before, maybe it was mentioned when his subordinates submitted the approval documents.
"I seem to have seen it somewhere, I have to go back and find out more about it."
"Of course, if what you said is a Chinese company that just came to the United States this year, then I don't think it will be difficult. I hope this company is really a fat sheep as you said. This year's gold futures and No. 1 metal futures The second silver futures exploded one after another, and I urgently need new revenue to support my performance."
Albert Raphael said helplessly.
Shida Allen smiled and said, "You don't need to investigate any more. In order to save time, I have brought the most complete information, you can take a look."
With that said, he turned around and returned to the rest area, took out a document wrapped in kraft paper from the briefcase, and handed it to Albert Raphael.
Afterwards, he went into the house and poured a cup of coffee, found a chair and sat down, and drank slowly.
Albert Raphael sat next to Cida Allen and slowly opened the information in his hand.
The more he looked, the more surprised his eyes became.
The strength of this Chinese branch should not be underestimated, no wonder Sida Allen came to him specially.
"It seems that a high-level battle is involved again." Albert Raphael thought to himself.
After reading it, Albert Raphael thought for a while and asked, "Hida, how much do you need me to do?"
Xida Allen put down the coffee, looked directly into the latter's eyes, and said solemnly: "Albert, the company has only one requirement. With the help of advanced copper futures and aluminum futures, we can absorb the funds of the Galaxy Fund to the greatest extent possible, and then Harvest it in one fell swoop and blow up the Galaxy Fund, the worse it is, the better!"
If Xida Allen's request can be successfully completed, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to Philip Brothers, and with the help of huge profits, it can also add a lot of merit to him, no matter how he sees it, he has no reason to refuse.
Of course, in terms of risk, Albert Raphael did not underestimate it, but he did not pay too much attention to it either.
Investment is risky, but the size of the risk can be affected. The key is to look at strength.
Albert Raphael is confident that he will not be able to compete with the mighty Philip Brothers at Galaxy Fund.
"OK, Hida, just watch, I will teach them well."
Albert Raphael said with a smile, with a meaningful smile.
"Albert, looking forward to your performance!"
