Chapter 424 Entering the futures market!

Yang Ming and Lin Xiuzhi came out of the conference room and went back to the chairman's office.

When Lin Xiuzhi made coffee for the boss again, Yang Ming looked out the window.

At this time, for Yang Ming, he needed a lot of money.

In other words, the primary purpose of establishing the Secretariat.

That's making money.

Make as much money as possible from the global market.

Today, Imperial Group’s main source of income is.

The first is the income from global stock markets.

Second, the revenue from electronic game consoles.

Third, the income, profits and dividends of its major groups.

Fourth, the cooperation fund of Imperial Group Huifeng Bank.

However, judging from the current global layout of the Imperial Group.

Not only will the upcoming large-scale privatization of Country Y cost money, but domestic investment will also cost money. Even Xiangjiang will also cost money.

It seems that the current income of the Imperial Group is quite good, especially the income from the global stock market and global electronic game consoles, which are like a money printing machine, making money very quickly.

However, he felt that it was still not possible, especially in the next few years, every step would be very critical and the money would be extremely expensive.

"Boss, your coffee."

Yang Ming sat down, picked up the cup of original bitter coffee and took a sip. He suddenly felt much more energetic.

"Boss, would you like some sugar?"

Lin Xiuzhi also knew that when it came to making coffee, she felt that she was not as good as Zhou Kaixuan.

The coffee brewed by Zhou Kaixuan herself is exactly the same as the other's. Not only is the proportion suitable, it is also very suitable for the boss's taste.

"No, I want to wake myself up."

Lin Xiuzhi also stepped aside.

When Lin Xiuzhi sat down and was busy with her own business, Yang Ming turned his attention back to the computer.

stock market?

Then it’s futures’ turn.

Compared to the stock market.

Yang Ming knew that futures would bring in money faster.

However, there are also more investment risks.

The most powerful crude oil futures contract has appeared.

The New York Mercantile Exchange, a futures exchange, listed heating oil futures contracts in November 1978.

This is the earliest crude oil futures contract, but it is not as large as the future crude oil futures market.

Except for crude oil futures.

There are also London gold futures contracts. Nowadays, these are the futures contracts that are played by the most investors in the world.

In addition to crude oil and gold, there are also various commodities.

Including metals, precious metals, rare metals, agricultural products, stock indexes, bonds and more.

Especially the London Futures Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade, which are very mature in the world, began to appear more than a hundred years ago, or even earlier.

So for Yang Ming, this is his best opportunity to make money from the global market.

"Lin Xiuzhi, please send me all the newspapers and periodicals related to futures around the world."

Futures newspapers?

Lin Xiuzhi wrote it down.

She did these things immediately.

As one of the world's three future financial centers, Xiangjiang now also has its own futures exchange, called the Xiangjiang Commodity Exchange, but the trading scale is not large.

In addition, many investors in Hong Kong invest in London gold or bulk commodities in Chicago.

It was not difficult for Lin Xiuzhi to find information in this area.

. . .

noon.

Huo Jianning, Yuan Tianfan, Liang Botao, Zheng Haiquan, Li Huimin, Albert and others are working in their new office area.

Everyone has a new IBM computer.

Huo Jianning and others did not expect that these IBM computers actually had local area networks.

They can receive the latest internal news from the regional network. Now the message Yang Ming sends to each of them is to pay attention to all materials and information related to futures.

futures?

When people like Liang Botao and Zheng Haiquan heard this, they immediately felt different.

They guessed that the boss might want to invest in futures.

After a whole morning, in addition to reading related futures books or futures newspapers and periodicals.

Many of these people are related to finance themselves and are also familiar with futures.

Even those who are not familiar with it now understand that investing in futures contracts is nothing.

However, futures investment is riskier than stock market investment, and they can't understand why their boss wants them to pay attention to futures.

When you get off work at noon, you can go to the canteen to have lunch.

It was their first time to eat in the Imperial Group's canteen.

When you come to the canteen, you can easily get a meal that suits your taste with your work ID.

The food in the Imperial Group canteen is getting richer and richer.

In addition to Chinese food, there are also Western food and even buffets. Basically, for people like them, it is better than the canteen of the original group company.

If it's another company, you have to go out to find food after get off work.

Huo Jianning packed a package of four dishes and one soup. When she saw the boss Sir Yang and the female secretary Lin Xiuzhi also going to eat, she originally wanted to say hello.

Huo Jianning thought for a while, then returned to her office seat with her four dishes and one soup, and browsed some newspapers and periodicals related to futures while eating.

When working in the accounting department of Hutchison Whampoa, Huo Jianning still felt a bit superior. After all, his academic qualifications were not bad in all aspects. When he came here and found that the other forty-nine people were no worse than him, his kind of The natural sense of crisis also emerged.

In other words, he wanted to make his boss notice him in this secretariat, and of course he had to show his abilities.

futures?

Huo Jianning took the professional accounting certificate in M ​​National Examination. He had learned too much about finance in this area, but he had never thought about investing in futures.

If it is stock market investment, the risk itself is very high, and futures investment is much riskier than stock market investment.

Huo Jianning read the newspaper while eating.

I recalled seeing relevant content when I took the accounting certificate exam.

Futures, the English name is Futures, are completely different from spot goods. Spot goods are real goods (commodities) that can be traded. Futures are not goods, but are based on certain bulk products, such as cotton, soybeans, oil, etc., and financial assets such as stocks. , bonds, etc. as the underlying standardized tradable contracts.

The day for delivery of futures can be one week later, one month later, three months later, or even one year later.

A contract or agreement to buy or sell futures is called a futures contract.

The place where futures are bought and sold is called the futures market.

Investors can invest or speculate in futures.

. . .

While Huo Jianning was still watching, Albert's voice came.

"Kin Ning, haven't you finished lunch yet?"

Albert was still very satisfied with the lunch provided by the Imperial Group canteen. It was free and equivalent to their benefits. The most important thing was that there was a rich selection of Western food here.

Seeing that Huo Jianning was still eating and reading the newspaper, he came over.

"Mr. Albert, I want to ask you for advice."

Albert came and sat down next to Huo Jianning.

"Kin Ning, what do you want to ask?"

"As for futures investment, from what I understand, the risks of futures investment are very high. Why does the boss ask us to pay attention to futures-related information?"
