Capítulo 1133: Chapter 1133: 10 billion dollars in ammunition
Xia Yudan smiled and said, 'I don't know how much money Mexico has borrowed. Apart from the Mexican president and the Mexican finance minister and a very small number of people, no one else will know.'
'But I'm sure it's not much, definitely not more than 10 billion U.S. dollars!'
'In Mexico's difficult situation, such a large sum of money would not be lent by just one or two banks, but at least ten.'
'As long as it was borrowed, news would definitely leak out, but there is none now, so there is only one possibility.'
'Mexico did not borrow enough money and is desperately trying to keep the news from leaking out!'
Hearing Xia Yu's explanation, everyone suddenly realised that this was indeed the case.
If Mexico had borrowed enough money, they would have had enough confidence, so why would they need to hide it? And why are they still borrowing money frantically around the world?
"Boss, if Mexico can't borrow enough money now, and the Federal Reserve raises interest rates again, Mexico will definitely be unable to turn things around and will just have to wait for their execution.'
Liu Mang said with some excitement in his voice.
He was already imagining what the scene would be like and how many opportunities there would be!
Xia Yu said with certainty, 'According to the information I have received, Ronald Reagan's economic reforms have not been very effective, and there is a lack of sufficient funds to stimulate the domestic US economy. The Federal Reserve is already once again considering a policy of interest rate hikes, but it has not been made public for the time being.'
'This information is very secretive, and I had a hard time getting it.'
'The banks behind the Federal Reserve may have thought that Latin American countries and other countries would have problems, but they definitely did not expect that countries like Mexico would dare to go against the world's opinion and default.'
'According to my analysis, once the Fed raises interest rates, the Mexican peso will depreciate again. With Mexico's current debt, the annual interest will further expand, and the more than $10 billion that is due soon cannot be repaid. Before the end of the year, more than $30 billion in debt will mature, and in the future there will be more than $40 billion in debt.'
'Mexico's economy and government finances have entered a vicious cycle. With no hope in sight, Mexico will inevitably choose to default.'
'As long as Mexico dares to be a rogue, other Latin American countries will surely follow suit.'
'At that time, banks in Europe, the United States and other countries will definitely be forced to choose to back down, because if they don't back down in order to seek the smoothest possible solution, a large number of banks will collapse as a result, which will further develop into a financial crisis that sweeps the whole world!'
As Xia Yu said, a country's reputation is indeed important, but the pressure-bearing capacity of each country is like a bamboo stick, which always has a limit to how much it can bend. When the stick is bent beyond its limit, it will naturally break!
Hearing this, everyone was heartened.
They couldn't wait for the crisis to get bigger and better, as it meant they could get in early and make even bigger profits.
As for the survival of other banks or industries, it was not in their scope of consideration.
If one company goes bankrupt, there will always be another to take its place. The world will continue to turn without anyone. They just need to work hard to make money for their boss, and the rest is none of their business!
'Boss, where do we start, and when should we act?'
Liu Yao asked with anticipation.
Xia Yu narrowed his eyes and didn't answer immediately, but instead asked, 'Liu Yao, last time I saw that the company still had 3.1 billion US dollars in funds. What about now?'
Liu Yao immediately replied, 'Boss, right now we still have more than 2.23 billion US dollars in liquid funds, and another 2.65 billion US dollars in assets such as stocks and contracts that can be sold at any time.'
In other words, the Galaxy Fund can gather more than 4.88 billion US dollars in a short period of time!
Xia Yu immediately ordered, 'Sell all the stocks and contracts invested and collect the funds.'
'Yes!' Liu Yao answered sternly.
Then Xia Yu thought for a moment and said again, 'In addition, I will take another 5.1 billion US dollars here to make up 10 billion US dollars for the operation!'
Hearing this figure, everyone's spirits were invigorated.
The boss is indeed as generous as always. One hundred billion US dollars, if spread out and leveraged, can easily leverage tens of billions of US dollars for operations.
'As for these funds, they will be operated in the following ways. Take note of your respective responsibilities.'
As Xia Yu finished speaking, everyone sat up straight, picked up their pens, and opened their notebooks to take notes.
Xia Yu nodded slightly, and then began to speak: 'This time, we will start with the stock market and the foreign exchange market.'
'Tang Yong will be responsible for shorting the banks involved in lending in the United States and Canada.'
'Xue He will be responsible for shorting the banks involved in lending in European countries.'
'Song Yang will be responsible for shorting the banks involved in lending in countries other than Europe and North America, such as island countries and Australia.'
'Li De will be responsible for going long on the US dollar exchange rate.'
'Liu Yao will be responsible for shorting the currencies of ten countries, including Mexico, Argentina, Chile, and Colombia.'
'Ma Kai is responsible for shorting the stock markets of ten countries, including Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, etc. It should be difficult for capital to leave these countries at that time, so your task is relatively heavy. You need to screen out the assets of oil fields, mines, and mineral companies in these ten countries, turn the profits from shorting the stock market into these assets, and hide them.'
'Wang Gang is responsible for shorting the currencies of nine countries, including Brazil, Venezuela, and Peru.'
'As for Liu Wei, you are responsible for shorting the stock markets of Brazil, Venezuela, Peru... these nine countries. The profits will also be converted into assets of oil fields, mines, mineral companies, etc. in these nine countries, and they must also be kept strictly hidden.'
'As for the funds, I will treat everyone equally, and each of you will get 1.25 billion US dollars. As for how to find leverage, you will have to figure it out yourselves. I will only look at the results.'
'You each have your own team, and how to distribute the tasks is also your own business.'
'This is the plan. Does anyone have any different opinions? Feel free to speak up, we can still make adjustments on the spot.
The group looked at each other and shook their heads.
'Boss, I'll follow the arrangement!'
'Boss, I have no objections either.'
'...'
Everyone was indeed speechless at the prospect of 1.25 billion dollars each, because strictly speaking, it was unfair to Liu Jiao, who was more capable.
However, considering that everyone's areas of responsibility were different, and the difficulty and scope of operations were also different, it was impossible to be completely fair.
Therefore, it depends on each person's ability. How much capital can be leveraged using the principal of 1.25 billion US dollars for operations, while also controlling risks and profits, involves a lot of work.
Xia Yu said decisively, 'Okay, since there are no objections, let's act according to this plan. You can gather the information you need yourselves, and list the information you can't find for me. I will mobilise other forces to investigate.'
Then, he paused for a moment, his gaze sharp as a knife, making everyone feel a chill in their hearts.
Xia Yu then said in a stern voice, 'You must pay attention to this: you must never be reckless. We cannot fight a battle we are not sure we can win!'
'The 10 billion US dollars is the majority of my liquid capital that I can currently spare without affecting other companies, so there can be no problems.'
'I will also keep track of your progress.'
'Do you remember?'
'Yes!'
Everyone answered in unison, their faces serious.
'Just remember. Now the meeting is adjourned. You will each gather your teams to study the plan, and I will provide you with the data and information you need in all aspects.'
'Yes!'
...
After everyone had left, Xia Yu sat alone in his office, quietly thinking.
In fact, after he had put another 5.1 billion into the Galaxy Fund, the secret funds in his personal coffers would only be left with a little over 500 million US dollars.
Thinking about it, the first time he went long on gold futures, he made 7.5 billion US dollars.
Then, when he speculated on gold and the US dollar exchange rate, he made another 15.6 billion dollars.
In the meantime, he fleeced the World Cup, stirred up the futures market, and shorted a series of companies in the Swire group, etc., which added up to another 4 to 5 billion dollars.
And when he did oil futures, he made another 4.7 billion dollars.
All in all, just these major moves alone have made him more than 30 billion dollars.
Although he has made a lot of money, he can't help but spend it quickly!
Think about it: He invested heavily in acquiring companies in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and other countries to build a foundation, and then kept injecting assets into various companies under his umbrella along the way. Each of these required a large sum of money.
Fortunately, he didn't use his own funds alone. After all, he also had banks under his umbrella, and many of the deposits of the depositors in these banks were called in by companies under the Jiuding consortium.
In addition, many companies were also good at using the funds of other banks to expand.
If not, relying on Xia Yu to support him, with his current situation, tens of billions of dollars would definitely not be enough.
It is not easy to be able to still have more than ten billion dollars left!
For this operation, Xia Yu had no intention of aggressively mobilising the funds of financial companies such as Jiuding Bank, Jiuding Securities, and Guangming Capital, nor did he want to withdraw the working capital of industrial companies.
At his current level, it was no longer appropriate to take risks as before.
One hundred billion US dollars of capital is more than enough for the operation, and there is no need for him to be too greedy. The amount of capital is too large, and it would be difficult to hide it, which would instead lead to trouble.
Even if there is an accident in this operation and all eight teams fail, losing the hundred billion US dollars of capital, his current consortium will not collapse, and it still has a strong enough ability to generate new capital.
As long as he can hang on for two years, he will be able to regain his strength and continue to make waves!
There are plenty of opportunities in the future!
"However, this opportunity is not only available to Galaxy Fund. We still need to remind people like Peter Lynch, George Berkeley, Liu Tianci, and Wang Qi to avoid the pitfalls in advance. With their abilities, they can also seize the opportunity to make a profit steadily.'
After thinking about it, Xia Yu left Galaxy Fund and prepared to go back and give them a good piece of advice one by one...
