Blooming America

Chapter 400: Gold problem

Want to buy gold!

The United States actually does not allow people to hold gold. It is illegal to hold gold coins and gold bars. Therefore, Catherine simply bought physical gold through Liechtenstein as savings, and bought it in a long-term basis, so that the company already had a lot of gold.

Gold is still linked to the U.S. dollar at 35 U.S. dollars per ounce. Gold circulates as a currency, and futures are actually not popular.

So for now, physical gold is the best choice.

Within a year after the disintegration of the Blington Woods system, the price of gold suddenly increased several times, and then reached the high of the US dollar per ounce in less than seven years. It has more than doubled, which is definitely a terrible profit.

In fact, the dual-price system of gold that has been implemented now has such a sign. The so-called dual gold price system means that in the official market, the price of 35 dollars equals 1 ounce is still implemented; while in the private gold market, the United States no longer supplies gold at the price of 35 dollars equal to 1 ounce of gold. It depends on supply and demand. In this way, the price of gold in the private market rose with the wind, gradually pulling the distance from the official price of gold.

Now in the private market, the price of gold has risen a lot, and Catherine now wants to buy gold through official exchanges, which is not as easy as before.

After entering the era, it was also a sign that countries such as Europe and the United States had completely begun to transform into financial countries. Using the oil crisis as an inducement, the United States began to undergo a major transformation, but after that it was still unable to support it. Become extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, the Soviet Union collapsed at this time, and the cold war dividends all of a sudden made the situation in the United States improved.

Catherine could not judge whether the current United States is better or worse than that country in history, but there is no doubt that the process of history has accelerated a lot, so she now needs to speed up the law.

One hundred million U.S. dollars, if you change it to gold and put it on for a few years, it will be more than 100 million dollars. There is no more cost-effective business.

Getting more than one billion of funds is a little problematic for Catherine, but saving two to three billion can still be done within one or two years.

Catherine now pays more attention to issues related to manufacturing.

Manufacturing can be the cornerstone of everything. Without manufacturing, society will no longer exist.

One of the most important features of financial transformation is de-industrialization. All manufacturing industries are thinking of foreign transfer. In history, China’s reform and opening up policy can achieve such good results, and part of the reason is that the Americans and British people continue to de-industrialize their companies.

To be honest, relative to the Americans and British, Catherine thinks the Germans are the best. The Germans are much better than the Americans and the British in terms of ideology or obedience, and this is what Catherine cares most about.

Germans pay more attention to obedience to social status. In the opinion of a German, if a person is temporarily appointed as his boss, even if the boss is not as rich as him, his professionalism is not necessarily better than him, but as long as the order is not outrageous, he Urban tendency and obedience. In other words, tall, handsome and rich bosses are poor, and he will obey each other.

The United Kingdom and the United States are just the opposite. They follow the model of complete capital interest obedience. If you have money, you hire me and you have money to follow. Then I will do it.

Although the ar group is not world-famous now, it has a reputation in the United States, and the money is bright, so many families are willing to come here.

It's just that Germany is still fragmented, so Germany has not become the world's top five countries in the world.

"Germany is better... Except for a bit rigorous and rigid..."

"East Germany or West Germany?" Elsa asked.

"The two sides are combined."

Later, there was a view in Germany that the Anglo-Saxon financial model was flawed. They preferred the large government market model and believed that the financial industry’s sense of responsibility to society is very low—even o—the financial industry needs to be placed under government control. Below, not out of it. This is exactly the opposite of the British and American thinking model.

"It's no wonder that Marx is a German. It seems that this kind of thought is quite traditional in Germany..." Catherine's words made Elsa a little unclear. Does this have anything to do with Marx?

It is for this reason that the official-based model of East Germany can be used, and in the red camp, it is also relatively good. If the socialist model is left to Britain, even if the Soviet Union suppresses it, the result will be unquestionable-it will blow up directly.

Even after the reunification of West Germany, Germany's government control and autonomy were still far from the United Kingdom and the United States. But compared with China in the future, it is still not enough.

If the entire United States can have the state of the Germans, maybe the United States can be more comfortable when it rivals the Soviet Union?

The traditional German mode of thinking has created the unique characteristics of Germany in Europe. In addition, the Germans emphasize saving. Even under the influence of the American "heavy consumption" thought, the saving rate is more than %. The society is stable, and the United States is daily. Explosive demonstrations are two concepts-although there have been some riots after the second decade of the 21st century.

"And Japan..."

Japan is now also a major manufacturing country, and compared to Germany, it is now more threatening. Without the rise of China, coupled with the fact that the Japanese are now more enthusiastic about post-war reconstruction, instead of playing a boring political game like eight years and ten phases, let alone encountering the "lost ten years", the Japanese are also ambitious. exuberant.

Although Japan's prosperity is only a flash in the pan, it has entered a decline in only 20 or 30 years, but Japan is now in its heyday, and they are the worst enemies. But fortunately, iBm, a shit-chucking stick, is making waves in Japan, focusing all the attention of the Japanese on iBm, so I don't care about what happened on Catherine's side for the time being.

Once the Japanese come back to their senses, they will definitely add to Catherine's side.

"The purchase of gold is going to speed up..."

Catherine didn't care about that little money anymore. Even if the funds were short, she could mortgage all the gold. The disintegration of the Bretton Woods system is a certainty, and its disintegration will never be later than in the history of sorting out by reading a book. Even if the company is desperate, Catherine can also mortgage all the gold. As long as the gold is decoupled from the U.S. dollar, it will be her own victory.

The establishment of the Bretton Woods system, for a considerable period of time after the war, did bring about an era of unprecedented growth in international trade and increasing interdependence of the global economy. But the Bretton Woods system has flaws that it cannot overcome. The fatal point is that it uses a country's currency-the U.S. dollar-as its main savings asset, which is inherently unstable. Because only relying on the U.S.'s persistent trade deficit can the U.S. dollar be scattered around the world and other countries can obtain U.S. dollar supplies.

But in this way, it will definitely affect people's confidence in the dollar and cause a dollar crisis. If the United States maintains its international balance of payments, it will isolate the supply of international savings and cause a shortage of international liquidity. This is a contradiction that cannot be overcome.

Therefore, the disintegration of the Bretton Woods system is inevitable, and now it is enough to take precautions.

"Elsa, show me some trends in the London gold market over the years." Although the United States has completely banned ordinary people from owning gold coins and bars, gold trading still exists in old Europe.

The official price is the official price, but there are also private prices, not to mention that Catherine needs a market to buy gold.

Ersa immediately started to act.

Because the company needs to buy gold for a long time, the information in this area is collected quite clearly.

Elsa quickly took the information.

"The most recent case of a major change in gold occurred on March 14th. The trading volume of the London gold market reached a record-breaking number of tons, and the transaction funds were between 400 and 500 million US dollars... "

On March 17, the gold dual price system was established.

"Gold can be regarded as a relatively high-value product. It doesn't seem to be that simple to add value..." Catherine smiled at the corner of her mouth, seemingly mocking: "So... the price of gold is still so cheap now."

Even in the private market, the price of gold is not too high.

Catherine immediately picked up the phone.

"Okay, this is the Quantum Fund."

"I'm Catherine Edson, I'm looking for Soros."

"Please wait."

"Okay, Sister Edson." Soros' voice soon came over there.

"Soros, think we are going to speculate gold now... how likely is it to succeed?"

Soros can conquer the pound by himself, and now with Catherine, it is not impossible to win gold.

"This one……"

Soros was caught off guard by Catherine's question.

"Although private gold has no more than 35 dollars, but gold does not produce higher value now. If you want to disintegrate gold, you must first disintegrate the Bretton Woods system, and the Bretton Woods system It’s based on the U.S. dollar..."

It is naturally impossible to completely knock down the dollar or something.

"And we alone are not strong enough. There is no capital flow exceeding 100 million dollars. I do not guarantee success. If I exceed 100 million dollars, I can guarantee% success. It is even possible to force countries to abandon the fixed exchange rate system."

Soros is simply very talented, but billion...If you can really get 20 billion, Catherine will not be exhausted now.

"Sorry, I was abrupt~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Catherine felt that she should need a lasting plan...

...
