In the next year, the price of gold would rise and even touch the 350 USD line. This meant that even if Feng Yu did not use leverage, he could still make tens of billions of USD profits with his huge capital advantage.
Furthermore, how could Feng Yu not use leverage? It was just that the multiple was not high, and he was only hedging conservatively. The profits for this year would definitely double the amount that Wind & Rain Consulting invested.
This way, even if Feng Yu's other companies did not get listed, as the value of Bill Gates' shares decreased, Feng Yu could still become the richest man in the world!
The US stock market was still falling, but it would not fall as much as before. However, the stock market performance was still very poor, especially those blue chips. Because no one dared to buy them, the price still did not rise. Instead, the stocks of some smaller companies showed signs of rising. However, Feng Yu observed that there was a lot of human manipulation involved.
Also, there were still funds exiting the stock market and entering the gold market, which was the main reason why the price of gold continued to rise.
The US's invasion of Afghanistan would not end so easily. In his previous life, the US only officially ended the war two to three years before Feng Yu was reborn. Of course, the US killed Lameng on the surface, but it was also because the US could not withstand the public opinion and domestic economic pressure.
The annual cost of deploying troops was not a small amount, especially the salary of the US soldiers, which was considered the highest in the world. Of course, it could not be compared to Italy.
It could be said that this invasion eased the internal conflicts in the US, but it also brought huge economic pressure to the US government. In his previous life, the US government even went bankrupt, which was a blatant renege on their debts.
If they went bankrupt, they would not have to pay back the money!
However, this invasion also showed the military strength of the US and other NATO countries. If Russia did not intervene, no other country could compete with the US in terms of military strength, not even Hua Xia.
Although Hua Xia's military had been developing rapidly in the past few years, it still lacked offensive weapons. Although it was known as the world's strongest army, Hua Xia was not next to the US. In other words, people could come to your doorstep and beat you up, but you couldn't go to someone else's house and smash it up. In terms of war losses, Hua Xia was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.
Fortunately, Hua Xia's economy had been developing very fast in the past two years. Now that they had money, the plan to build an aircraft carrier had been put on the agenda. Although Hua Xia had always claimed to be a neutral and peaceful country, if you wanted to be neutral, you had to ensure that you had a strong military to protect yourself, especially when your neighbor was a powerful polar bear.
From the perspective of national interests, Hua Xia is a threat to both the US and Russia. The US is used to being the big boss, but Russia is not afraid of anyone.
Since ancient times, there was a saying that befriending the distant and attacking the nearby. The relationship between Hua Xia and Russia had always been on and off. If it weren't for the existence of the United States, the two countries would have fought each other long ago.
Hua Xia does not intend to stay under Russia's protection forever. Those countries that were supported by Russia or the former Soviet Union were attacked by the US, and Russia did not say a word. To put it bluntly, they don't have the money to fight Russia. Anyway, the US doesn't dare to attack Russia.
Even if they cannot support this country, they can still support another country. War is also in Russia's interest. The world's most popular weapon, the AK-47, is produced by Russia. Most of the countries that went against the US had purchased Russian weapons. Russia does not need to do anything and can still make money!
In Feng Yu's previous life, this war lasted for more than ten years, and Russia's economy grew rapidly. At the same time, Hua Xia's economy also grew rapidly.
Because of this war, the US's position as the world's leader was seriously challenged.
Hegemonism is not in line with Hua Xia's culture, but it's fine to have a tripartite balance of power. I will not bully others, but no one can bully me!
Of course, if anyone dares to bully my friends, I will help them fight back!
Feng Yu, Fu Guangzheng, and Li Zekai chatted for a long time. Feng Yu told them about his prediction of gold prices and reminded Li Zekai to be careful.
After all, Feng Yu does not know if history will change. If the lights suddenly went out, then the world's economic trend, including the overall structure, would change dramatically.
Although the probability of this happening is small, Feng Yu must be careful. This is also why Feng Yu cannot use all his funds to buy gold prices with high leverage. He must also set aside emergency funds to increase the margin, lower the leverage, or hedge to cover his losses.
"Brother Feng, you and Kirilenko have gold mines in Russia, right?" Fu Guangzheng suddenly asked.
Feng Yu smiled and nodded. "We have invested a lot in Russia's mines, and according to Hua Xia's culture, Gold Warriors are worth investing in. It's the same in Russia."
Li Zekai heard this and was shocked. That means Feng Yu's net worth will increase by leaps and bounds. Not only will he make high profits from the gold futures market, but he will also make high profits from the mines he invested in.
Seems like what his father said is true. In terms of investment foresight, Fu Guangzheng is not as good as Feng Yu. Feng Yu had started to invest in mines many years ago. At that time, he bought a lot of mines at low prices after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
After that, the prices of the mines did not increase, and Kirilenko did not mine or sell their mines. Instead, they continued to buy more mines. Seems like from this year onwards, Kirilenko's mines will be profitable!
"Brother Feng, I have a friend, and his family is also in the gold business. His family's jewelry brand is one of the top ten jewelry brands in the world. Although it is only ranked tenth, it is one of the top three gold jewelry brands. They need a stable gold supply channel. Are you interested? "Fu Guangzheng asked.
Feng Yu raised his brows. He knows which family Fu Guangzheng is talking about.
"Are you talking about the Zheng Family? They have been importing gold from the US and Africa. They have many business channels in China. Why are they looking for me? "
"That's right. It's the Zheng Family. There are some problems with their African suppliers, and China has many restrictions. There are also many competitors. That's why they need to expand their supply channels and asked me to contact them. I am only asking on their behalf. It's up to you to decide. "
Fu Guangzheng is trying to tell Feng Yu that he is only an ordinary friend of the Zheng Family, and he does not need to give him face.
"If he agrees to adjust the prices according to the international gold prices, then we can consider working together. Why don't you ask him to come over tomorrow, and I will speak to him. "
It's time to sell some of the gold mines.
