Chapter 711 Shorting

You must know that the professionalism of the financial industry is very strong. Although sufficient funds are also a capital, if the operation is not good, the amount of money is not enough for them to pay.

If you are unlucky with things like stock futures, tens of billions of funds will evaporate in an instant.

In fact, Zhang Manlin is not puzzled by Jiang Cheng's purpose, because he is such a willful person.

Anyway, Jiang Cheng has always been unhappy with those people in the financial industry, and it's normal to want to teach them a lesson.

What she really wondered was why Jiang Cheng was so confident that he could say that he would definitely be able to make money.

With Jiang Cheng's IQ, it is impossible not to know how deep the water in the financial industry is. Is it too unwise to do such a thing rashly?

Jiang Cheng found that Zhang Manlin was still staring at him so puzzled, so he could only helplessly continue to explain.

Well, I am actually going to enter the futures field to have a play, because I am 100% sure that I will be able to make money in the futures.

That's why I suddenly thought of playing, making money and teasing those futures speculators at the same time.

Jiang Cheng's confidence in controlling the futures market actually stems from the phone call he just hung up on.

He just remembered about platinum after being reminded by Xiao Peng on the phone.

A large amount of platinum will be shipped back to the earth soon, which will definitely have a great impact on the precious metal trading market.

When these platinums are transported to the earth, the price of platinum does not know how much it will drop.

This time, the rocket transported 500 tons of platinum ingots back. It wasn't that Jiang Cheng didn't want to transport more, but that the rocket's carrying capacity had reached its limit.

If the I1 rocket flies back and forth between the earth and Mars, it can only carry 500 tons of cargo at most.

If the rocket's carrying capacity exceeds this range, the nuclear fusion fuel on the rocket may not be enough.

Regardless of the fact that the figure of 500 tons is nothing in the industrial age, the annual output of those steel industries is "380" to hundreds of millions of tons.

But if the figure of 500 tons is added to the front of platinum, it will be a very scary figure.

The reserves of platinum on the earth are very low, and the annual output is only a little bit.

It is precisely because platinum is so rare that its price is as high as gold. Now there is no annual platinum output on the earth, which is about 85 tons.

The 500 tons of finished platinum shipped back this time has already exceeded six times the annual output on the earth.

That is to say, Jiang Cheng got back the earth's six-year platinum output from Mars at once.

With so much platinum flooding the market at once, the price of platinum will drop a lot in an instant.

What's more, this is only the first batch, and the output on Mars will only increase in the future.

Although these platinum Jiangcheng is not going to sell, but this news alone can have a great impact.

Now Jiang Cheng has not announced what he did on Mars. Everyone only knows that after the establishment of the Mars base, there are still five astronauts staying on Mars.

If Jiang Cheng said that those astronauts were helping him to mine platinum on Mars, the precious metal trading market would be turbulent in an instant.

Especially the platinum futures market will definitely be messed up by him.

So when the platinum mine was mined, Jiang Cheng was ready to watch those good shows.

It's just that Jiang Cheng has changed his mind now, and is ready to make money by himself while teasing those people.

With 500 tons of platinum in hand, Jiang Cheng can control the price of platinum.

When he knew that the price of platinum was bound to fall, he knew that on platinum futures, he could make a big fuss this time.

Futures trading is a large part of the financial industry, and Jiang Cheng's riskiest financial transaction is at the same time.

In futures trading, you can lose billions in one second. This kind of thing has happened more than once.

There is an essential difference between futures and spot goods, which are actually goods that are delivered after a period of time.

A financial market has been derived from this kind of goods traded in the future.

Simply put, the futures market is a game of commodity prices. Everyone predicts the future price of a certain commodity, and then conducts long-short transactions based on the prediction.

If your prediction is correct in the end, you can make a lot of money in the futures market, otherwise you will lose money to grandma's house.

The futures market is actually an adventure for both parties. Everyone bets on whether the future price of this kind of goods will rise or fall.

If you think that the price of this kind of goods will rise in the future, then you can go long in the futures market. If the price of this kind of goods rises in the future, you will make money, otherwise you will lose money.

If you think that the price of this kind of goods will fall in the future, then you can go short in the futures market, which is actually the same as going long.

It's just that the camps on both sides are different. Some people make money and some people lose money.

To put it bluntly, the futures market is a huge casino, and futures trading is a zero-sum game, where someone makes money and someone loses money.

Since Jiang Cheng can predict that the price of platinum will inevitably fall this time, he can go short on the platinum futures market.

Then when the rocket reaches the earth, he will be able to make a lot of money as soon as the price of platinum drops.

Of course, by the way, it can also make those who do more lose money to the point where even their mothers don’t know them.

In fact, the futures trading market is far from that simple, and there are many tricks for short-term operations.

It's just that Jiang Cheng is going to do long-term this time, and now he is going to be short-selling until four months later.

Anyway, there is no problem with his funds, even if the price of platinum rises temporarily, he will not be liquidated due to insufficient funds.

As long as he has enough words in his hand, those who fight against him will die.

Anyway, the price of platinum will definitely fall in four months, so as long as he keeps shorting until then, he will win.

Even if you lose money temporarily due to the price increase of platinum, you can make it back in one go.

It is precisely because Jiang Cheng has inexhaustible funds and the ability to control the price of platinum that he can say such confident words.

After Jiang Cheng told Zhang Manlin about platinum, this CE0 dispelled his doubts.

Now she truly believes that Jiang Cheng will be able to make money, and he will be able to make his opponent go bankrupt in an instant.

But just after Zhang Manlin resolved her doubts, she immediately became excited.

Being able to do things in the financial market has been her dream for a long time.

It goes without saying that she can trade futures without losing this time.

Then get busy signing the documents first, I will take care of the trader business right away, and I will definitely find you the best trader back, this time we must make a good profit.

After Zhang Manlin finished speaking, she left Jiang Cheng's office directly, but she still did not forget her responsibilities, and even if she left, she had to let Jiang Cheng finish her own affairs.
