Chapter 1616 The fifth rate hike

From July to August, the Federal Reserve launched three consecutive interest rate hikes, especially the fourth and fifth interest rate hikes, with less than half a month between Director Huang Rongchen and Chen Dong felt more and more uneasy, and they had to travel all the way to the United States to find Zhou Ming.

Huang Rong and the others have been disconnected for a long time, which is actually normal. On the one hand, although they are foreign exchange investors, they are not as focused as Zhou Ming. Their focus is still in China, so it is impossible for them to stay in the United States all the time; on the other hand, doing long-term Nasdaq is also a long-term investment, so there is no need to keep an eye on the United States all the time. After all, you can also see news about the United States in China, right?

But this time the situation is different. The Fed's continuous interest rate hikes, especially the interval between the last two times was so short, which made them unable to hold back and worried that something was wrong, so the three of them rushed to San Francisco to find Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming explained to them that the Fed's two interest rate hikes after the second time were indeed very abnormal short-range interest rate hikes, but it does not mean that the bubble has reached its limit.

"Nasdaq is now our best weather vane. According to our investment model forecast, after this round of interest rate hike, the Nasdaq index can only reach 4,800 points at most, which is still quite a distance from our expected 5,000 points mark, and this gap is enough for us to react."

Zhou Ming has actually explained this explanation to them many times. Since funds are currently concentrated on the Nasdaq, it is easy to judge the situation by just keeping a good eye on the Nasdaq index.

However, Huang Rong and the others are obviously always uneasy, worried that the Fed will expose the bubble in advance, and worried that the local wealthy Americans will join forces with the Fed. After all, they are together, and it is normal to engage in some conspiracy behind their backs.

What I invested in is the country's foreign exchange, and the hard-earned money of the people accumulated over the past 20 years of reform and opening up, so I cannot waste it at will.

Director Chen even said such words, "If you lose money on the United States, I am sorry for the trust of the country and the people."

To be honest, Zhou Ming can understand their concerns very much. After all, if he hadn't known about the situation of this Internet bubble, he would have doubted whether the situation was beyond his expectations in the face of this situation. But now... Zhou Ming is very calm.

Of course, Zhou Ming's calmness also knew that Huang Rong and Director Shen did not want to give up too early, because Zhou Ming then said: "If Director Chen, you are really worried, you can withdraw first. After all, after the Fed's five consecutive interest rate cuts, you have made a lot of money."

When they heard that they had really let them retreat, Huang Rong and Director Shen and others said whether there was a safer solution. After all, helping the country create foreign exchange is also a major event for the country and the people.

Zhou Ming's tone when he heard them speak was very similar to how he treated the project when he could get a high commission in his previous life.

Huang Rong and Director Shen also understood that their different attitudes were very unresponsive, and they all smiled embarrassedly.

...

Although Huang Rong and Director Shen want to increase their investment returns and are worried that they will continue to hold them, they will not be able to react if the Nasdaq suddenly collapses.

But there is one thing they are right, that is, this time the Federal Reserve's sudden short-range rate hike is indeed a problem.

The last rate hike and cut was not a so-called misoperation, but Green targeted it

Zhou Ming, a Chinese investment group, came from, and his pride as a financial czar, did not allow his Federal Reserve to help him develop policies, even by the way.

That's why there was an operation of hike and lowering interest rates. However, Zhou Ming was not fooled. Instead, Morgan Rockefeller and a large number of Wall Street chaebols were affected. Faced with doubts and pressure from all sides, Green had to push a temporary worker to take the blame and then increase the interest rate hike back, which made him fool the situation.

But on the surface, Green not only did not give up on her targeting Zhou Ming, but instead hated her more and more. You should know when did Green, the Federal Reserve Chairman suffer such a loss? Therefore, he must find the place back!

Since he had made a rate hike and cut interest rates, this trick could not be used anymore. He had to change the method. The result was to shorten the interval between interest rate hikes. The purpose was to make Zhou Ming make a wrong judgment and mistakenly think that the situation had changed, so that he could leave early.

I heard that Director Chen and his group of people from the China Foreign Exchange Bureau rushed to the United States, which made Green very happy because he also knew that China's foreign exchange participated in this investment. So now he is so anxious that he is obviously worried about market changes.

This made Green think that his plan was successful, but after waiting for a day or two, the stock market did not hear the news he wanted. Only then did Green realize that Zhou Ming was not fooled.

Green felt very sorry for this. No matter how much Green gritted his teeth, he had to admit that Zhou Ming was indeed a little capable.

Since you cannot achieve your goal in breathing, you can only find another way.

Green then found his own policy officer to discuss it to see if there were any other ways to teach the arrogant Chinese a lesson.

However, before Green could think of a solution this time, Zhou Ming had a new move.

Although Zhou Ming did not agree with the ideas of Huang Rong and Director Shen, he did not let them leave the United States, but kept them in San Francisco for a while.

Zhou Ming told them that although the interval between the two consecutive interest rate hikes is not a problem, the fifth interest rate hike is enough to pay attention to, because the next interest rate hike will be the last time to burst the Nasdaq bubble.

According to Chen Shu and his calculations, this time the Nasdaq index is likely to collapse rapidly after reaching a peak of 5100 to 5200 points.

Zhou Ming suggested that Huang Rong and Director Shen start to retreat slowly after the index exceeds 4900 points.

Huang Rong and Director Shen are also veterans of investment and understand this truth. What you do in the long term is to maintain stability. It is impossible to bet on the theoretical peak like in the short term. What if something unexpected happens, the Nasdaq will start to collapse at 5,000 points? Or what if the Fed's brain draws raise interest rates in advance?

If it were the past, they would still think that the Fed is the central bank, the world's largest country, and it can be more stable. But when they saw the Fed's misoperation of hiring and lowering interest rates, the two interest rate hikes with a short interval, they dared not have any confidence anymore.

The same thing is true for their foreign exchange investment, it doesn’t matter how much you make, and being safe is overwhelming.

So Huang Rong and Director Shen accepted Zhou Ming's suggestion and began selling arbitrage after the Nasdaq index exceeded 4,900 points, but they would also leave some funds in proportion to reach the peak of more than 5,100 points.

So what investment will be after the capital arbitrage comes out

Woolen cloth?

This is a new question raised by Huang Rong and Director Shen and others to Zhou Ming.

In fact, they were very embarrassed to ask this question, because they had just made such a big profit through Zhou Ming's help, but now they are asking about the next step of investment. They are really a bit of a greedy capitalist flavor. You know, they had the only way to buy treasury bonds in the past!

However, they didn't know that Zhou Ming was waiting for them to ask this question, because Zhou Ming had already figured out the next plan.

"I don't think you are embarrassed. Investors just need to keep moving the funds. If the money is only stored in the bank, it will only keep depreciating."

Zhou Ming then said: "As for the next step, I think we need to focus on the stocks of some large American companies, such as General Motors and Westinghouse Electric, Harvey Machine Tool Factory and Texas Instruments, as well as companies such as Aipex and Amazon."

Zhou Ming said that, and listed a large list of companies for Huang Rong and Director Shen. Huang Rong and Director Shen were both stunned. It was obvious that Zhou Ming had been preparing for this matter for a long time.

"At that time, the Nasdaq stock market collapse will definitely drag down the entire US economy. At that time, the stocks of any company will be sold, causing the overall market value of American companies to fall. At this time, we will buy at the bottom. Not only will we acquire it in the stock market, we will also negotiate with these companies to directly invest in the acquisition of shares, but we also need their decision-making shares." Zhou Ming said.

Yes!

Zhou Ming's words made Huang Rong and Director Shen and others lit up. They also agreed with Zhou Ming's judgment very much. This is not only the reason for the stock market collapse, but also the Federal Reserve's six consecutive interest rate hikes have pushed the exchange rate to a high level, causing banks to tighten their monetary policy, and many companies are prone to funding problems.

At this time, they have a lot of funds in their hands, and of course they can acquire various high-quality assets at a very low price.

Of course, there is no problem with the logic of this idea, but it only makes Huang Rong and Director Shen and others worry.

"Mr. Zhou Ming, do you think we are taking advantage of this financial crisis to acquire shares in the United States in such a large-scale manner, is it really feasible?"

"You know that we are foreign exchange investors in China, and the funds we have come from China."

"The United States is a country that has long been a protectionist country. They regard national security more important than anything else. How could it allow us to acquire their factory companies on such a large scale?"

Faced with their questions, Zhou Ming's answer was also very simple.

"Of course they won't agree, especially General Motors and Westinghouse Electric, as well as machine tool factories and instrument factories, they can be said to be their industrial lifeline enterprises. Of course, it is impossible for the United States to allow us to acquire it," said Zhou Ming.

???

Huang Rong and Director Shen stared at each other, feeling that they were covered in question marks and had no idea what Zhou Ming was talking about.

They thought Zhou Ming would have some insightful or wonderful methods to bypass the supervision of the US government, but they never expected that they would just know how to disagree.

So since you know what you said he is doing?
