Xiao Congren's promotion to the vice city lord of Su City made the entire Xiao family proud.
On the other side of the ocean.
The international crude oil market wailed.
Since June of this year, under the combined influence of multiple factors.
The national crude oil futures price experienced a precipitous fall.
Industry experts generally agreed.
There were three reasons for the sharp drop in international crude oil prices.
On the one hand, the increase in the US's production of oil caused the total international oil supply to soar, causing the imbalance between international crude oil supply and demand, which became the driving force behind the continuous decline in international oil prices.
On the one hand, the global economic growth was weak, which led to a significant reduction in the demand for oil in the world, which led to the rapid increase of global oil stocks and accelerated the downward pressure on oil prices.
On the one hand, it was the continued strength of the US dollar, speculation in the international financial market, the expectation of the US Federal Reserve to raise interest rates, the huge fluctuations in the stock market, the fluctuations in the foreign exchange market of the emerging Asian economy, and the price war of the yarn that led to the fall in oil prices.
There were many negative factors.
The international crude oil price fell like an avalanche.
In an instant, the Internet was filled with news of the bankruptcy of crude oil futures.
For example, a certain man went bankrupt in order to repay his mortgage!
For example, a certain rich man sold 320 million yuan of luxury houses because he was buying more crude oil futures.
For example, a certain middle school teacher was suspected to have lost millions of yuan in crude oil and jumped to his death.
For example, under the influence of the " white, rich, and beautiful ", a certain man lost 10 million yuan in two months.
Of course, those who were long in crude oil futures lost money.
Those who were short on crude oil futures naturally made a lot of money.
Among them, the one who earned the most was Xiao Luo.
In the middle of September.
Xiao Luo asked the employees of White Cloud Investment Co., Ltd. to help him short international crude oil.
There were many types of futures in the international crude oil market.
For example, North Sea Brent crude oil, Dubai crude oil, Minas crude oil, WTi crude oil, and so on.
The crude oil that Xiao Luo chose to buy was Brent crude oil.
Before the official opening of the warehouse.
He chose to invest in the futures market at the famous Forex Group.
Forex is a global leader in the personal foreign exchange and spread contract trading industry, providing clients with a financial leverage ratio of 1:100.
Moreover, the company paid great attention to the privacy of its customers.
This time, Xiao Luo was short selling international crude oil and took out the 400 million USD he had earned from the stock market.
Speaking of stocks.
Xiao Luo couldn't help but sigh.
For those who had been reborn, 2014 was full of opportunities.
Starting from the end of October 2014, the domestic A-share market index would rise from 2279 points to 5178 points in June 2015.
The domestic stock market would usher in a bull market for a full eight months!
During this period of time, trading stocks was really like picking up money.
Through Anshuo Information, Yingkou Port, Leiman Optoelectronics, Fushun Special Steel, Xuanji Information, and other demon stocks, Xiao Luo easily earned more than 2 billion, equivalent to 400 million USD.
Under the circumstance of using 1:100 financial leverage.
He had 40 billion dollars in his account.
When the time comes to build a warehouse.
Brent crude oil futures were priced at 80 USD per barrel, and 1000 shares were worth 80,000 USD.
Xiao Luo used the 40 billion USD in his account to create a 500,000-lot crude oil futures empty order.
According to this trend.
Every increase in the price of Brent crude oil was equivalent to a loss of 5 million US dollars.
On the contrary, every drop in the price of Brent international crude oil was equivalent to him earning 5 million US dollars.
……
After the establishment of the warehouse.
The frequency of Xiao Luo coming to White Cloud Investment Co., Ltd. had increased a lot.
Brent crude oil futures were traded from 7 a.m. to 5 a.m. the next day.
This also made the company's employees work on two shifts to help him keep an eye on the market.
As a reborn person.
The expected trend of Brent crude oil had long been within Xiao Luo's plan.
Just as he had expected.
International crude oil fell like a cliff.
Mid-December.
The price of Brent crude oil plummeted to 60 US dollars per barrel, a drop of 2000 points.
2000 points, what kind of concept was that?
For every drop in international crude oil, Xiao Luo could earn 5 million USD.
2000 points.
This meant that Xiao Luo could earn 10 billion USD!
Next.
Xiao Luo stopped while he was ahead and asked the employees of White Cloud Investment to help him close the position.
The employees of White Cloud Investment were all elites in the financial field.
They placed 10,000 sell orders in the international crude oil futures market and quickly closed the deal.
It was sold many times in a row.
Not only did it not have any impact on the international crude oil price, but it even caused the international crude oil price to drop by 1 point.
Seeing this, Xiao Luo asked his employees to quickly close the positions.
The employees didn't hesitate and began to close the positions of 50,000 lots and 100,000 lots.
The international crude oil price continued to fall.
When the dust settled.
Inside White Cloud Investment Co., Ltd., a tsunami of cheers erupted.
The reason was simple.
At this moment, in their boss's futures trading account, there was 10.075 billion USD!
According to the latest exchange rate.
10.075 billion USD, equivalent to 61.65 billion yuan!
Looking at this number.
Xiao Luo was very happy.
He promised everyone," This time, you guys helped me short international crude oil. You've worked hard for three months. I've decided to give each of you a reward of 1 million yuan!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The office was in an uproar.
Currently, the average house price in Sucheng was 11,000 yuan per square meter.
The one million yuan bonus was enough for each of them to buy a house!
"What the f * ck? One million each?"
"Long live President Xiao! I love you so much!"
"President Xiao, you're so generous!”
"Thank you, President Xiao. You're the best boss in the world!”
“……”
In the office.
Everyone was thanking him.
Everyone had smiles on their faces.
To be honest.
For nearly three months, they had been staring at Brent crude oil futures all day long. It was more tiring than a dog.
However…
When she thought of the million-yuan bonus that President Xiao gave her.
They only felt refreshed and their fatigue instantly disappeared!
……
Xiao Luo couldn't help but smile when he saw the expressions of the employees.
After selling international crude oil this time and making tens of billions of dollars.
Many of his plans could be carried out one after another.
White Cloud Investment could show off its strength in the field of financial investment and venture capital!
Bai Yun tried his best to start the 10 billion yuan subsidy plan immediately.
White Cloud's Short videos could advertise wildly and attract users.
Baiyun Car could also have more new energy vehicle factories, auto parts factories, research and development buildings, company headquarters, and so on.
The year 2015 was approaching.
It would be a glorious year for the White Cloud Group!
