While the landline was still connected, David Solomon held a cigar in his mouth and glanced at the company's position status solemnly.
Including bits and pieces of secondary subsidiaries, a total of 32,000 short positions are held, the average buying price is US$400.28, the current market price is US$410.86, and the floating profit and loss for the day——
-
US$338,560.
In fact, not including the handling fee, we lost 33.856 million US dollars and vomited out all the meat torn from Mr. Lu!
If the position is closed now, the overall return will still be positive.
Profit of over one million US dollars.
It's nothing compared to the price you paid!
Not to mention the connections of the Federal Reserve, the gold spot sold off, just invested 128 million U.S. dollars in a pig-killing plan, and after more than two months of stalemate with the Three Body, it was impossible to stop.
There is no other reason, the sunk cost is too high!
"David, we must act immediately, come up with a new plan, and continue to short gold."
John Waldron's tone was firm.
"You mean, we have to short gold to the end?"
When David Solomon thought of China's action, he couldn't help but think of the battle to defend Xiangjiang during the Southeast Asian financial tsunami. Because of the tough action of the Chinese government, Soros was defeated in despair.
After all, the Three-Body Problem is like a mayfly to Goldman Sachs, and Goldman Sachs is like an ant to China. This time, shorting gold, if there is a shadow of China...
"Your worries are completely unnecessary! According to my investigation, the gold-buying wave that broke out in China was spontaneous among the people. The main force was all aunts over forty years old and knew nothing about finance."
John Waldron was dismissive. How could Goldman Sachs, a century-old firm, tolerate losing to a Chinese aunt who "shows her sharp horns only after a small lotus" in the gold market?
Isn’t this an attempt to stir up trouble on Tai Sui’s head?
"Is there really no end for the Chinese government?"
David Solomon listened patiently to the analysis.
John Waldron said categorically: "I have asked many Chinese officials and the answer is exactly the same, no, absolutely not!"
David Solomon touched his chin, and the gloomy clouds on his forehead gradually dissipated, but he still could not make up his mind.
"David, shorting gold now is not only for revenge against China, but also for our Goldman Sachs."
John Waldron earnestly advised, this time under the banner of "carving up the three bodies", he formed a short-selling army with Wall Street and even global capital. But now, the price of gold, which has been strongly shorted by Goldman Sachs, is not only strong, but rising.
What does this make the horse boys following big brother think?
I originally expected my eldest brother to eat meat and me to drink soup, but it turned out that my eldest brother couldn't even control the price of gold, so he drank soup. My younger brothers also lost money, so who will hang out with Goldman Sachs in the future?
The gold-lettered signboard can be messed up!
Not only must we go short, but we must go short to the end, and we will not withdraw until we earn more than a dozen small goals from Mr. Lu.
"John, you're right!"
David Solomon couldn't help but feel moved.
"And David, don't you think this is a good opportunity to expand your victory? Hahaha, you know."
John Waldron grinned.
"Yeah, yeah, I understand, I understand!"
As soon as David Solomon was reminded, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he saw the prey that had been sent to his door in vain, and his fierce look was revealed.
Doesn’t the Chinese aunt like gold?
Goldman Sachs sold gold at a high level and asked them to take over the order honestly, and then used their usual tricks. When the gold price continued to fall, the frightened Chinese aunts could spit it out as much as they wanted, polish it at a low price, and ruthlessly
Being stabbed to death!
"Jie Jie~"
The two of them smiled knowingly, and the sharp and harsh laughter filled every corner of the room. They laughed so evilly, so evilly.
"David, what's going on over there in Huaxia Continent?"
John Waldron suppressed his smile, "What did our informant at Trisolaris say? Will he take this opportunity to close his position?"
"There is no news from George yet, I will urge him later."
"Concealment comes first, don't force it, this 'George' will be our key to dealing with the Three-Body Problem!"
…………
"Dong dong dong~"
George knocked on the door with a cup of steaming coffee.
Carlson Bullock shouted "Come in". After seeing the person clearly, he returned his attention to the international gold price trend on the computer screen. While watching, he said:
"Bosch, your Chinese compatriots are so crazy! In just one week, they bought 5 tons of gold, which suddenly destroyed Goldman Sachs's conspiracy to sell short."
"Haha, our great man from China said it right, the enemy always overestimates his own strength."
Lu Fei stayed in the study room of Rose Villa.
Ah, yes, yes, whatever the boss said is right!
Carlson Bullock did not dare to refute anymore. Now the "Legend of the Chinese Aunt" has gradually spread in the Wall Street circle. Looking back, thinking about it, it is simply outrageous to open the door to the outrageous. It is outrageous.
"Bos, given the current strong demand for gold jewelry in China, we expect that gold prices will continue to rise and may break through the resistance level of $415..."
While talking, he noticed the presence of outsiders from the corner of his eye and said, "Thank you, George, you can go out now."
"If you need anything, just call me."
George smiled harmlessly and left the office.
Seeing this, Carlson Bullock took a sip of coffee and slowly relaxed his tense nerves for more than two months. When he heard Mr. Lu ask about today's transaction price, he blurted out:
"$410.86."
"What if we close the 20,000 positions that are about to expire?"
Lu Fei took a pen and scribbled on the paper. Three Body Fund held 64,614 long orders for more than 2 days, with an average buying price of 396.2 US dollars.
"Excluding handling fees, the profit is 29.32 million."
Carlson Bullock is extremely sensitive to numbers and quickly calculated the answer, "Coupled with the investment profits in gold ETF funds, the loss rate has been brought back to 1.3%."
"Close the position and deliver all 20,000 lots."
Lu Fei knocked on the table and gave the order.
"Bos, this is definitely a wise decision! If more than 40,000 other orders can be delivered in advance..."
Carlson Bullock tentatively mentioned that futures have date restrictions and liquidated damages must be paid in advance for delivery, but even if they lose this dollar, they will make at least more than 50 million dollars in profit.
Lu Fei said: "No, don't move after it's been decided."
"But Bosch, now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to close your position. Your countrymen have created it for you!"
Carlson Bullock is worried that the rush to buy gold will not last long. Once the climax is over, when Goldman Sachs makes a comeback, the international gold price will still fall. This opportunity cannot be missed.
Lu Fei disagreed: "Carlson, the great man said the last part. Don't underestimate the power of the people."
"But just relying on China..."
Carlson Bullock hesitated.
"Who said there is only China?"
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth raised, revealing a mysterious smile.
Carlson Bullock looked confused. When he received the order to increase his holdings of gold spot and ETF funds, he even used the $29.32 million he finally got back to continue long gold futures. While confused, he became more and more frightened.
.
"Bosch!"
"Brock, you must keep it secret."
"Huh, okay, although I don't agree with taking risks, you are the boss and you have the final say. I will leave this work to Gordon and the others, and the guys here will not know about it."
"Crooked!"
Lu Fei showed a satisfied smile. Gordon's group of people were all employees who had previously opposed his heavy buying and selling, and their advice was hard to hear. Although the advice may be wrong, they were at least reliable and loyal.
I deliberately opened a new account, used a small account to purchase gold and ETF fund shares, and subsequently covered my long positions.
Carlson Bullock said: "Bos, I think this is not the answer. Is it time to find someone to investigate the undercover hidden in the fund?"
"Don't worry, we are using this guy right now. We will dig him out when we are done with him."
After Lu Fei finished speaking, the two of them talked carefully about the top-secret futures portfolio plan, aiming to go long in gold. The farthest contract delivery period was set in June next year.
Beep beep, the phone was hung up for a while, and the sound of unlocking and opening the door was heard outside the study.
"came back?"
Lu Fei put his hands in his pockets and walked out. He saw Gao Yuanyuan carrying large and small bags, panting and running to the living room and putting things on the sofa one by one.
"Phew, I'm exhausted."
She took out a tissue and wiped her sweat.
"Let me see what I bought when I went shopping with my sister-in-law."
Lu Fei flipped through it casually and counted the clothes he bought for him the most.
"Hehe, I went to Givenchy to watch it. After the movie was released, it was incomparable to before it was released. The business was bleak. After Huang Bo said this, many people felt that they had been betrayed."
Gao Yuanyuan smiled: "You are really bad."
"Is it bad? Why do I feel so bad at the beginning?"
Lu Fei didn't take it seriously, and after rummaging around, he found a huge gift box containing a golden pig, shining with gold, and a three-piece set of gold chains, gold rings, and gold bracelets next to it.
"Oh, that's from Sister Hongmei."
"Sister Hongmei, call me sister-in-law."
"Yes, my sister-in-law gave it to us. The golden pig is for you, and those things are for me. She bought a lot of them, even for Ruoruo when she grows up and gets married."
Gao Yuanyuan pursed her lips and said with emotion: "It's a good thing that we are VIPs of Jin Bank, otherwise we wouldn't be able to grab it at all."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "You seem to have bought one less item."
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised, "No way? I thought I bought too much. Why did I buy less?"
Lu Fei teased softly and said, "neiyi."
"You, you are dirty..."
Gao Yuanyuan blushed and secretly spat: "Humph, don't even think about it. You didn't see that scene. It was like a robbery. When I left, the gold store was completely out of stock. I could only make a reservation. Even for me, I want to make a custom order."
, also out of stock.”
Lu Fei whistled: "You can go to Xiangjiang."
…………
Evening, Wanliu Academy.
"Dad, Yanjing can't buy gold. Mom asked me to accompany her to Xiangjiang. Will you go?"
Liu Qing ran over briskly, and his joyful face suddenly froze. In his sight, Liu Chuanzhi clutched his chest in pain, frowned, and slumped in front of the computer.
"Dad, what's wrong with you, Dad!"
"Suxiao Jiuxin Pill, give me Suxiao Jiuxin Pill quickly."
"Where is the medicine?"
"Right, second drawer on the right."
Liu Chuanzhi felt weak, big beads of sweat flowed from his forehead, and his pale lips kept trembling.
"Dad, medicine, medicine is here."
Liu Qing was at a loss and quickly poured 6 pills.
"Not enough, pour 6 more pills."
Liu Chuanzhi hurriedly swallowed the quick-acting Jiuxin Pill, and the pain in his chest calmed down, and the pain returned from rapid to gentle.
"Dad, you are so good, how could you get sick?"
Liu Qing was puzzled at first, but when out of the corner of his eye he saw the screen on the New York Stock Exchange gold futures page, he instantly understood the trend of the entire gold price, which first fell and then rose, and it rose sharply.
Lost!
And he lost a lot!
"Qingqing, help me dial the number to John at Goldman Sachs."
Liu Chuanzhi did not expect that just a few days after making more than 200,000 US dollars from Mr. Lu, he would actually lose more than 1.8 million US dollars on his books in just one week, which is more than 14 million RMB.
tnnd, that’s not to say it’s foolproof!
My money, my pension money!
Facing his accusation, John Waldron looked embarrassed and didn't know how to speak. After all, he had promised to do so in the first place.
Liu Chuanzhi said angrily: "Why is this happening? Give me a perfect explanation!"
"Ahem, this is completely a sudden factor."
John Waldron explained patiently and in a firm tone: "Don't worry, Liu, it's just an accident for you Chinese people to buy gold. Once this gold buying wave ends, the international gold price will soon fall as we expected, at least to 100% per ounce."
$350.”
"What do I do now?"
The corners of Liu Chuanzhi's eyes twitched and his face turned pale.
"Don't do anything. We have already moved your position to August. Then you can just wait to collect the money."
John Waldron considered that Goldman Sachs could use Legend Capital to enter the Chinese financial market, so he waived all commissions for this order.
"Then I'll watch."
Liu Chuanzhi covered his chest, feeling a vague foreboding.
Starting from the next day, July 18, Goldman Sachs regained its strength and gathered its allies who were short gold. They sold gold aggressively with one hand and frantically shorted futures with the other hand, giving the rising gold price a hard wake-up call.
Not only did it fail to break through the $415/resistance level, it didn't even hold its position at $410 for long, and immediately dived, falling off a cliff to $394.
But Goldman Sachs' combination punch is more than that.
Taking full advantage of the controlled media, including the Southern Department, they have promoted the unsustainability of the rise in gold prices and the possibility of a fall in gold prices, fanning the flames everywhere, creating panic, and asking Chinese aunts to quickly sell all the gold they have hoarded.
The result was a surprise.
Instead of selling, the Chinese aunts wanted to buy more and more as the price dropped. With the mentality of "If you don't buy it, you won't be able to buy such cheap gold", when the price of gold fell, they continued to cover their positions and buy.
With Mr. Lu's propaganda tools at full blast and carpet bombing by sea, land and air, no aunt in the country was spared. They rushed into gold shops and banks to buy and hoard gold.
After all the looting was done in the Mainland, the wealthy people directly formed a group and headed towards Xiangjiang with their suitcases in tow. This frightened the Xiangjiang Gold and Silver Industry and urgently purchased 4 times more gold bars than usual from the London and Swiss vaults.
Goldman Sachs is operating, and Mr. Lu is also operating.
However, fortune has always been on Master Lu's side. Crude oil prices have risen, global inflation has emerged, and international gold prices have skyrocketed, rising back to US$400 per ounce.
It fell but then rose again, giving Goldman Sachs a big slap in the face!
Do you know how much psychological harm this Dabi Kabuto has caused!
"How many gold bars do these Chinese aunts want to buy?"
David Solomon slapped his hands on the table, causing the whole table to shake and shake, and countless information charts fell to the floor.
"Widowed Bitchi!"
"Chinese aunts are all Bichi! Bichi!"
He looked at the rising gold price and his eyebrows twitched.
They are Goldman Sachs, an international financial oligarch and a beacon of Wall Street. They were beaten up by a group of Chinese aunts who do not understand finance and have no culture. How embarrassing is this for Goldman Sachs? What do colleagues think of this?
Just when Incompetent was furious, the secretary hurried in, his face flustered, his steps messy, and his high heels were annoying.
"Fuxk! How many times have I told you, come in and knock me..."
When David Solomon was about to curse, the secretary quickly handed over the report. She said with a straight face: "You'd better take a look at this first."
"What's this?"
"New research reports show that China is not the only main force buying gold. India has also increased its purchases of spot gold."
"What?!"
"In 1999, India abolished the Gold Control Act. The demand for gold was originally growing at a rate of 10% every year. Now in July alone, India's gold imports have exceeded 10% year-on-year."
"fuxk!fuxk!fuxk..."
David Solomon's eyes were filled with anger, and he spoke more than a dozen times. In the end, he ran out of energy and fell weakly on his chair, muttering: "Is God on the side of Huaxia Continent?"
God, you damn motherfucker shouldn’t bless America!
"Bosch, what should we do now?"
The secretary said anxiously: "China and India are two countries with large populations. We estimate that this gold buying wave will exceed 30 tons. If left unchecked, the price of gold will rise to $450 per ounce..."
"Now there is only one last resort."
David Solomon picked up the phone and dialed directly the landline of Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan with the mentality of "fighting for his father".
Mr. Lu doesn't follow martial ethics, and he led the Chinese aunts to beat up my comrade Goldman Sachs, who is more than a hundred years old, to deceive and sneak attacks.
nnd, American dad, save me!
Thanks for the single opening and dual control, it is a big starting coin of 100, and 20211203224620018 is a big starting coin of 500.
