Of course, these foreigners did not understand the meaning of this idiom, but after listening to Yang Jing's serious tone, they understood what was going on.
Sure enough, while a few people were watching TV and enjoying the sumptuous lunch brought by Mike Aller himself, at about twelve o'clock noon, a heavyweight figure finally came out after much anticipation...
As Yang Jing said just now, the strength of gold is clearly due to the weak dollar. How can the United States feel? Especially the irresponsible words of the useless U.S. Treasury Secretary have become a booster for the strong international gold price. How can the boss of the useless Treasury Secretary feel?
Therefore, when the market closed at noon, President Carter of the United States finally stood up after much anticipation. As soon as he stood up, he announced to the world with an extremely tough attitude: "The United States will maintain its position in the world at any cost!"
What reflects the status of the United States? Is it the fleet of aircraft carriers spread across the world's oceans? Or the thousands of intercontinental ballistic missiles? Or is it the world's number one economy?
No, none of them. All of these are centered around one core. This core is the foundation of the United States, and that is the only international settlement currency on this planet - the US dollar!
Therefore, everyone can hear the meaning behind President Carter’s words - the United States will maintain the status of the US dollar in the world at any cost!
This is an extremely strong statement. No one would doubt President Carter's statement, and no one dares to doubt President Carter's statement!
As a result, the world was shocked when this declaration was made! The most direct result was that the price of London gold plummeted after the afternoon market opened. By the afternoon close, the price of London gold had plummeted by $50 per ounce in two hours!
Not only was Yang Jing's loss of $164 million before the morning closing wiped out instantly, he even made a profit of $650 million!
This change was even more surprising than a sudden turn of events, and it made Cesar and the other four people look at Yang Jing as if he were looking at God!
In January last year, the international gold price was still hovering around $250 per ounce, and the international oil price was hovering around $15 per barrel. The United States and Iran were still in the same boat.
As a result, as the storm in Tehran suddenly blew, Iran, which had been on good terms with the United States for many years, turned its back on the United States. If the revolutionary storm was just an internal affair of Iran, the hostage crisis that occurred ten months later directly dragged the entire Middle East into a quagmire.
In the 1970s and 1980s, the influence of Iran, a major regional power in the Middle East, was not comparable to that of a small region like Palestine. A mere revolutionary storm had already caused panic around the world. International gold and oil prices continued to rise, and the hostage crisis at the end of the year added fuel to the fire.
In addition, the Soviets intervened at this critical moment and brazenly invaded Afghanistan, turning this region, which accounts for 70% of the world's crude oil, into a powder keg.
Then within this year, the international oil price directly broke through $30 per barrel, and the international gold price soared to the outrageous price of $850 per ounce.
Whether it is the international oil price or the international gold price, this abnormal surge is like someone using an air pump to inflate a balloon. If the balloon is big enough, it would be fine, but this balloon is not as big and tough as people imagine.
Those international speculators are all aware that this wave of market conditions is abnormal, but under the temptation of huge profits, no one can clearly realize when the balloon will burst.
As a result, just this afternoon, President Carter had a needle point!
The extremely sharp needle tip instantly pierced through the thin film that was about to explode, and all that was left was the wailing of the international speculators who had no time to escape.
Only those who are smart enough, who know how to make choices, and who are decisive enough can successfully escape the scope of the explosion. For example, the mysterious Mr. Smith in front of us.
Although this mysterious Mr. Smith usually speaks less than a word or two a day, this kind of vision and this kind of means are simply something only God can have!
At the beginning, they were still doubting the other party's long operation plan, but it turned out that the other party used 27 million US dollars as the principal and went all long at the price of 518 US dollars per ounce. Then, in just 20 days, the selling price was 833 US dollars per ounce, and the net profit per ounce was as high as 315 US dollars per ounce!
With the leverage of margin, the 27 million USD funds bought 52,000 lots of London gold, or 5.2 million ounces of London gold. In 20 days, the handsome and mysterious Mr. Smith made a net profit of 1.638 billion USD!
I guess even the most powerful traders and international speculators in the world would never have imagined that there is someone on this planet who can make 1.638 billion U.S. dollars in 20 days with 27 million U.S. dollars!
Perhaps only God can do this.
What was even more incredible to Cesar and the others was that when the international gold price was at its craziest, this mysterious Mr. Smith decisively went short. Less than an hour after the order was given, President Carter, as if cooperating with Mr. Smith, made those strong statements to the whole world!
As a result, Mr. Smith once again got ahead of the market. The international gold price, which was crazy and unbelievable, plummeted by 50 US dollars in just two hours!
