American Fortune Life
Chapter 661: Return to rational investment
For Ivana's proposal, Andy groaned and nodded slightly. He didn't want to contact News Corp.'s offer to acquire the Dodgers so early, but his sports investment company did an in-depth investigation.
It was found that this McCarter who had signed the agreement from News Corporation and wanted to make money by operating the Dodgers to buy money from News Corporation without spending a penny was still a little capable. He was short of money, and was financially confused. The management method is very good, the current team lineup is very good, in the next one or two seasons to enter the playoffs without any difficulty.
In this way, Andy needs to consider the cost of time. Under the economic crisis, the depreciation of the US dollar is certain, and the value of some high-quality assets will not fall. It is better to take advantage of the market panic and win early when the future is unknown.
"In the past, News Corporation bought the Dodgers for a total of US $ 430 million. You can tell Wendy Murdoch that I would buy the Dodgers for US $ 500 million. In the current economic environment, this price News Corporation should I can accept it happily, and the rest depends on whether Murdoch wants to sell it. "
"Okay, I see. I asked Wendi to come out for lunch at noon. In fact, this is also an opportunity for Wendi. She doesn't want to get involved in News Corps' thoughts any more."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Andy reached out and nodded Ivana's nose, and smiled, "She has great ambitions and ability, but unfortunately Murdoch and his two sons will not give her this opportunity. ... "
Ivana nodded in conviction. Everyone knows that Murdoch's News Corp shares have been put into the family trust fund. Wendy Murdoch did not receive any shares. The two daughters only received one. The small point can only pay dividends without voting rights, which is also a compromise Murdoch made to his children in order to marry Wendi Murdoch.
Of course, Murdoch ’s defense is nothing but frankly. After all, the age difference between the two is too big. In the event of seeing God one day, there is no need to worry about his family members competing for property, which will lead to the collapse of the media empire he set up in his life.
Ivana ’s pretty face did n’t know when there was a red yun rising, and her breath was a bit disordered, Jiao patted Andy ’s arm, and felt bubby constantly changing, but I just saw Andy ’s disapproval, I like it Such a look, quite helpless, of course, for his boyfriend so enamored with her, still very sweet.
This kind of thing seems to Andy, feel free to play with it at any time, whether it is the fantasy of the previous life is not available, or the exclusive right of this life, this is his untiring welfare after the realization of his dream.
It wasn't until the breakfast set that Andy let go of Ivana, who was already stunned and lying in her arms, and bowed her head, and kissed her. Then she helped her organize her t-shirt and pulled her up for breakfast.
The maid has long been accustomed to you, the envious couple, and she hasn't heard the corner.
After Andy sent Ivana to the company, he went to Liberty City Investment Company. Because of the active response of the US government, the panic in the market was exacerbated by the initial stage of fierce publicity. Slowly calming down, after the cliff-like plunge in the real estate market, there was a hint of a bottoming out.
Some people who have been deeply affected by the subprime mortgage crisis and the media who like rhythm can rest assured that the most terrible economic crisis has been contained, but for Wall Street, the financial elites who understand the subprime market know very well that this It's just the fresh blood that the market is digesting.
Silence before the storm!
It only gives them a chance to breathe overnight. Once there is any wind blowing, the storm will be more terrible and violent than before.
Andy didn't care about the temporary calm of the American market, because his eyes have long moved to the British market. He came here today to see how the layout in the UK and the preliminary preparations work.
"At present, we have completed a short-selling layout for UK stock index futures, and the financial system has selected the UK's fifth largest mortgage lender, mainly relying on inter-bank lending and the sale of mortgage-backed securities to raise funds for Northrend Rock;
After the subprime mortgage crisis, banks have tightened their loan windows, and Senrock Bank will inevitably encounter a liquidity shortage in the short term.
The backlog of panic has been triggered because of this. The sell-off under panic is irrational. The British FTSE 100 index will inevitably plummet. This time our estimated return will be around 40%. "
"Can you make 2 billion pounds after closing the position?" Andy squinted his eyes, leaned Erlang's legs, leaned on the boss chair, touched his chin, looked at the various data charts on the projector, and seemed to speak for himself. To himself, muttered like a question.
"The floating error will not be too big. The leverage we choose is not too big, or the market prospects can be foreseen, and there is no need to gamble. And now the dollar is depreciating, and the exchange rate of the pound and the dollar is also at its highest value in nearly 20 years. The 1: 2 exchange rate will not last long, and the subsequent depreciation of the British pound is foreseeable. We have also prepared a foreign exchange layout. "
For the supplement of Bardstone, Andy nodded with satisfaction. To put it bluntly, he still had too little funds, even if leverage was used, but there was still a part of the principal used as security deposit.
Seeing that the boss still seemed a little dissatisfied, Bardstone explained again: "Boss, this time we chose this very aggressive financing strategy Northren Rock Bank can not short time.
Three days, this is the time for us to withdraw from the whole body based on the analysis of the deduction. We will let the media push it, news fermentation, public panic, seeking help, government response, and finally the rescue of the market. It will be completed within five days at the latest.
The third day will be the safest and most secure golden time, and the fourth day may still make a profit, but we do not need to take this risk. Once the British government intervenes in the rescue, it will inevitably retaliate due to the plunge and lose more than it pays. "
Andy nodded, he really grasped the general situation, knew when the subprime mortgage crisis broke out and ended, and knew the severity of the subprime crisis, but he didn't know every detail that had happened, and to be honest, he did not prepare in advance Investment companies and think tanks, he can not rely on the subprime crisis to profit so much.
Relying on this crisis, the profits he has obtained are already very rich, and indeed it should not continue to be a gambler-like investment behavior. Being careful to sail for thousands of years and return to rationality will not let him make less money. Anyway, there are still many opportunities in the next two years. There is no need to catch every time, and it is enough for him to earn a lot of money.
Near noon, Ivana kicked off the flat shoes on her feet, went barefoot into the office's inner lounge, opened the closet, and took out a Chanel high-rise slim-fit puff dress with black dots and white dots. Full of classic and elegant charm.
Throw to the side of the wound, take out a pair of black high-heeled sandals from the bottom, close the closet, look at yourself in the coat mirror, the skin is more hydrated, can not help but smile, put the white shirt on his body and The black ol skirt was taken off, and the Xia Feng ni's hot body was displayed back and forth in front of the mirror.
After changing the dress, the 180-cm slim figure in the combination of high waist, pettiskirt, and high-heeled shoes instantly stretched the proportion of the body to achieve the illusion of longer legs.
Satisfiedly picked up a black Chanel handbag, smiled at the corner of his mouth, leaned slightly on his chin, and left the office wearing a pair of white-frame sunglasses.
The paparazzi outside the p building naturally follow the pictures all the way, and the restaurant where Wendi Murdoch is scheduled to eat is not far away, just a few steps away.
Beauty ladies, bodyguards and paparazzi surrounded by reporters formed a lively landscape on the streets of Manhattan. Some passers-by recognized Ivana and took out mobile phones to shoot non-stop. Ivana always carried the iconic sweet smile. In a good mood, she answered the questions of several familiar paparazzi without saying a word.
Near the entrance of the restaurant, a paparazzi asked: "Ivana, can you tell us which baseball team Andy is going to buy?"
"Guess? Giggles, okay, I'm here, so everyone will see you later." Ivana said softly, nodding slightly at the paparazzi, and stepped directly into the restaurant that had already been opened. Glass door.
A reporter lying on the floor-to-ceiling window and taking pictures with the camera saw the woman hugging Ivana and murmured, "Wendimurdock ..."
