Chapter 657: Platinum Futures Trading

Just after Xiao Peng reminded him on the phone, he remembered about platinum.
A huge amount of platinum will soon be shipped back to the earth, which will definitely have a great impact on the precious metal trading market.
When the platinum is shipped to the earth, the price of platinum will not know how much it will fall.
This time, the rocket shipped back 500 tons of platinum ingots. It was not that Ye Su didn't want to ship more, but the rocket's carrying capacity reached its limit.
If the Kunpeng II rocket flies back and forth between Earth and Mars, it can only carry up to 500 tons of cargo.
If the rocket's carrying capacity exceeds this range, the nuclear fusion fuel on the rocket may not be enough.
Regardless of the number of 500 tons in the industrial age, the annual output of those steel industries is hundreds of millions of tons.
But if the number of 500 tons is added to platinum, it is a very scary number.
The reserves of platinum on the earth are very low, and the output per year is only that little.
It is precisely because platinum is scarce that its price is higher than gold.
The annual platinum production on the earth is about 85 tons.
The five hundred tons of finished platinum shipped back this time has exceeded six times the annual output on the earth.
In other words, Ye Su retrieved the earth's platinum production for six years from Mars at once.
With so much platinum flooding the market at once, the price of platinum will drop a lot in an instant.
Moreover, this is only the first batch, and the output on Mars will only increase in the future.
Although these platinum Yesu are not ready to be sold, the news alone can have a big impact.
Ye Su has not announced what he did on Mars. Everyone knows that after the Mars base is established, there will be five astronauts on Mars.
If Ye Su said that those astronauts were helping him to mine platinum on Mars, then the precious metal trading market would be stormy in an instant.
Especially the platinum futures market, he will surely make it a mess.
So when the platinum mine was mined, Ye Su was ready to watch those good shows.
It's just that Ye Su has changed his mind now, ready to end himself, making money and teasing those people by the way.
With 500 tons of platinum in Ye Su's hand, he can control the price of platinum.
When he knew that platinum prices would inevitably fall, he knew that on platinum futures, he could do a great article this time.
Futures trading is a big part of the financial industry, and Ye Su's riskiest financial transactions are at the same time.
You can lose billions in a second in futures trading. This kind of thing has happened more than once.
Futures and spot goods are essentially different. They are actually a kind of goods that are delivered for a period of time.
On this kind of goods traded in the future, a financial market has emerged.
Simply put, the futures market is a game of goods prices. Everyone makes a prediction on the future price of a certain goods, and then trades long and short according to the prediction.
If your prediction is correct in the end, you will be able to make a fortune in the futures market, otherwise you will lose money to your grandma's house.
The futures market is actually an adventure for both parties. Everyone bet 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 increase in the future, then you can do more in the futures market. In the future, if the price of this kind of goods increases, 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 should go short in the futures market, which is actually the same as going long.
It's just that the two camps are different. Someone will make money and some will lose money.
To put it bluntly, the futures market is a huge casino. Futures trading is a zero-sum game. Someone who makes money will inevitably lose money.
Since Ye Su 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 arrives on Earth, he will be able to make a fortune as soon as the platinum price drops.
Of course, by the way, those who do more can lose money to the point that they don't even know their mother.
In fact, the futures trading market is far from simple, and short-term operations are even more famous.
It's just that Ye Su was going to do a long-term plan this time, and now he was going to be short for four months.
Anyway, there is no problem with his funds. Even if the platinum price temporarily rises, he will not be liquidated due to insufficient funds.
As long as he has enough in his hands, those who fight him will be dead.
Anyway, the price of platinum will fall in four months, and he will be the winner as long as he keeps short.
Even if you lose money temporarily because of the increase in platinum prices, you will be able to earn it all at once.
It is precisely because Ye Su has inexhaustible funds and the ability to control the price of platinum that he can say such confident words.
Just after Ye Su and You Xueqin talked about platinum, the CEO dispelled his doubts.
She really believes that Ye Su must be able to make money, and can make his opponent go bankrupt in an instant.
However, just after You Xueqin dispelled his doubts, he immediately became a state of excitement.
Being able to do things in the financial market, but her dream for a long time.
This time she was able to trade futures with a steady win and not lose, and she had no need to say what she expected in her heart.
"Then you should be busy signing the documents first. I will take care of the trader right away. I will definitely find the best trader for you. This time we must make a good profit."
You Xueqin left Ye Su's office directly after speaking, but she still did not forget her responsibilities, even if she left, she would have to let Ye Su finish her affairs.
When she left, she left with excitement, and she knew that this kind of opportunity was only once.
After they cheated on those futures this time, they will definitely not be fooled next time.
If there is no opponent in the futures market, even if they can control the price of the goods, they will not find a profitable target.
So this opportunity is quite rare, and You Xueqin must seize the opportunity to cheat others.
