"Feng Yu, I remember you told me that there are more speculators in the US, and their market is bigger. If you want to invest in energy futures, why can't they do the same? "
"And their capital is much more than yours, isn't it? The rich in the US are much richer than Hua Xia. Your capital is not enough to invest in USD, right? "
Feng Yu heard Zhang Ruiqiang's question and laughed. "The US. There are more speculators in the US than in Europe. Many European tycoons also like to invest in the US market."
"You think I can't win because the financial market in the United States is very prosperous and there is a lot of capital, right?"
Zhang Ruiqiang asked Feng Yu back. "You think you can win? Although I don't know much about financial investment, controlling the rise and fall of prices like you mentioned is a competition of who has more capital, right? "
"You can use leverage, and they can also use leverage. You can lead a lot of people to follow the trend, but they can also do the same. Also, many people are hoping to pull you down from your position as the World's Richest Man. "
"If we are talking about cash flow, we are indeed at a disadvantage. But what if something happens to the US financial market? "Feng Yu smiled and looked at Zhang Ruiqiang.
"Something happens to the US financial market? What problems can there be? You should know better than me how prosperous the US stock market is. Even many of our state-owned companies are investing in the US stock market, and they are making high profits every day. "
The state-owned companies had also learned from Europe and the US to invest their pension funds. This is because the pension funds are increasing every year, and the increase is higher than the government's collection.
What's more, putting money in the bank to earn interest, plus normal inflation, was a form of depreciation. If the investments are done well, the capital can be doubled.
This way, the state-owned companies will not need to increase the residents' pension funds, and they can also give more pension funds to the retirees. This is a good thing for the country and its people.
There are risks in doing this. If the investments fail, it will be a big problem.
Luckily, not only the US and Europe economies are doing well, but Hua Xia's economy is also doing well. Most of the investments are making money.
Especially in the past two years, the profits had increased.
"Are the state-owned companies still investing in the US stock market? What are the main investment directions? "
He couldn't let the state assets lose money while he was messing around in the US stock market.
"Our investments are more conservative. They are all big US companies, like the Fortune 500. It might not grow as fast as some new companies, but it was stable. It includes energy, real estate, electronics, internet, automobiles, food, and many other industries. This way, the stock will fall faster, and we won't lose too much. "
Feng Yu frowned. "Didn't I tell you not to invest in real estate?"
"It's not like we are investing in real estate. We are just buying real estate related stocks."
"Get ready. Sell all the real estate related stocks before Labor Day. The same goes for the cars. Sell them. Then, we will gradually sell off the electronics, internet, food, and so on. At the end of May, we will also sell off the energy stocks. "
Zhang Ruiqiang didn't understand. "Why are you selling them all? Even if one industry fell, it was impossible for all industries to fall, right? Furthermore, didn't you say you want to push up the energy futures prices? Shouldn't the energy companies' shares rise? "
"Old Zhang, all industries are interconnected. You think they are in different industries, and if one industry falls, it might not affect the other industries. But if a few industries fall, especially those blue-chip companies, the whole stock market will fall. "
"Ask them to research the dotcom bubble a few years ago. Only two big companies' shares started to fall, and what happened after that? The whole US stock market crashed, and the rest of the world's financial markets were affected. Most of the funds were either shorted or invested in other industries. But those few years, the real estate industry was doing well. "
"When most of the stocks are falling, even if the energy futures prices rise, the energy companies' shares will also be affected. Also, as I said before, after pushing up the prices, we will suppress them. This is the best way to get the most benefits. "
"If I am the one leading the suppression, it's fine, and I can tell you all to escape in time. But if the other speculators start, I will not compete with them. I will suppress the futures prices and make money by shorting them. When that happens, it will be too late for you all to escape. "
Zhang Ruiqiang pinched his brows. "I remember you told me that the US property market is going to crash again. Is this caused by this?"
"I can't tell you the exact reason, but my analysts told me that the US is going to be in big trouble this time. Their economy is going to suffer a heavy blow."
"This is our chance to narrow the gap between us. At the same time, we must be careful not to be like Japan in the past, paying for other people's mistakes. "
At the end of the 1980s, the US also had a property bubble, and the crash spread to Japan and other markets. This caused Japan's economy to decline for 10 years, and this gave Hua Xia an opportunity to develop rapidly.
In Feng Yu's previous life, the US stock market had crashed, but the Asian markets were affected the most, including Hua Xia's stock market.
The US can always transfer their bad luck to others when they are down. Our family suffered losses this year, but the other families suffered more losses than us. This way, our family will still be the wealthiest.
Hua Xia's financial market has been trying to integrate with the rest of the world. But Hua Xia is also careful not to let too many speculators enter the market, and the market will be controlled by others.
But many people say that Hua Xia has so many foreign reserves, and how can he let others control the market? One reason is through administrative measures, and we can use our funds to stabilize the stock market.
But if our overseas investments are tied up, shouldn't the first thing we should do is to get out of this mess? When Feng Yu regained his senses, his family is in chaos.
"Feng Yu, this is a serious matter, and the higher-ups will surely hold a meeting to discuss it. Do you want to attend our meeting?"
"Not interested. If I sell this information to those big financial institutions, it will be worth at least a few hundred million USD. I am telling you for free, and if the higher-ups don't believe me, there is nothing I can do. Your family will have guests in a while, and I will leave first. "
