On March 20, 2003, the United States bypassed the UN Security Council and unilaterally launched a military strike against Iraq. The multinational joint forces led by the United States and Britain marched towards Iraq.

Because it was a continuation of the Gulf War, it was also called the Second Gulf War. The US-UK coalition launched a large-scale air strike and ground offensive against Iraq code-named "Decapitation Operation" and "Deterrence" Operation.

After the war started, the current US president delivered a televised speech to the nation, announcing the start of the war to overthrow Saddam's regime. The US-UK coalition successively dropped more than 2,000 precision-guided bombs of various types, including 500 Tomahawk cruise missiles, on more than ten cities and ports including Baghdad, Basra, Najaf, Mosul, Kirkuk, and Umm Qasr.

At the same time, Saddam also delivered a speech to the nation, calling on the Iraqi people to fight against the US invasion and defeat the US-UK coalition forces, and directly fired crazily at the sky with a submachine gun, indicating that he was not afraid of the United States.

At this moment, Lin Hao was in a closed villa, and the whole villa was filled with the sound of keyboard tapping. Lin Hao was staring at several large screens in the center, which showed the market conditions of major global stock markets, international crude oil prices, and the price of London gold.

"Boss, the national stock markets really started to plummet the moment the war started." Robert said to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao moved into the villa two days in advance for this moment. Seeing that the war had officially broken out as expected, he took a deep breath and said.

"Let's start according to the plan." Lin Hao said.

Hearing Lin Hao's words, Robert began to direct.

"The first group started selling the short contracts we controlled in batches. We can't let the price rebound at all. Play freely. The second and third groups, report your respective situations now, and report every five minutes afterwards."

As Robert's voice fell, the people in the three groups began to get busy frantically. Fortunately, they had been prepared before the war broke out, but the long and short positions and long positions had been arranged.

"The price of crude oil has risen by 4 yuan from 38 US dollars per barrel before the war to 42 US dollars per barrel."

"London gold has risen from 370.65 US dollars per ounce to 380.05 US dollars per ounce, and the price is still rising. Our holding cost is 331.50 US dollars per ounce."

"30% of our short contracts have been sold off, and the US and European stock indices are falling rapidly."

The three groups quickly reported the situation they were responsible for. Lin Hao looked at the various trend charts on the big screen. Everything was going as expected.

In terms of the allocation of funds this time, the funds for crude oil futures are 20 billion US dollars, London gold is 10 billion US dollars, and the remaining 5 billion US dollars are used to short the stock market.

Lin Hao is still concerned about crude oil, which has the largest price fluctuations. London gold is bought early, so the cost is only 330 US dollars per ounce. Now it has made a lot of money. As for the short-selling of the stock market, it is a bonus, which is used to buy some potential stocks later, and short-selling can also make a fortune.

"Today's London gold price exceeds $400 per ounce, so sell all of it and go short. Keep an eye on the price of crude oil. When it reaches $140 per barrel, sell all of it and go short.

All short contracts in the stock market should be sold today, and then the stocks that have been determined before should be bought in batches."

After hearing the feedback from each group, Robert issued the latest instructions. These were all discussed with Lin Hao before. Lin Hao roughly remembered that the price of international crude oil would soar to more than $140 in a short period of time, and then fall rapidly. The price of gold would also rise to $410 and then fall rapidly, but the specific time was unknown.

As for the global stock market, it fell in the first few days, and then stabilized as the war developed rapidly. Lin Hao was not clear about the time point, so he could only sell all the short contracts in his hands on the first day, and then buy them back at the low point.

All the traders in the villa were typing on the keyboard attentively. One instruction after another was issued with the sound of the keyboard, and the numbers on the screen kept changing.

Fortunately, Lin Hao had made up for his financial knowledge in this area, otherwise he really couldn't understand it. For this plan, Lin Hao started preparing in January.

The morning passed quickly, and everything was within the previous expectations. There were no major changes. After taking turns to eat at noon, we continued to work in the afternoon.

"At present, there are still 30% of the short contracts on our mobile phones, and the bulls have no power to fight back."

"The price of London gold hasIt has reached 400 USD/ounce. We are selling it in batches now. The price is still rising. It is already 403, 405. It is expected to break through the 410 USD mark. Boss, should we sell it all? "

The trader was a little hesitant when he saw the rising price. If he sold it at 400 USD/ounce, he would lose a lot of money.

"Sell it, sell it all, don't keep a penny. "Lin Hao said calmly.

From 330 to 400, the increase has been more than 21%. The principal of 10 billion US dollars has now earned more than 2.1 billion US dollars, a total of more than 121 US dollars. If you wait until it breaks through the 410 mark before running, it may be too late, and you may be buried directly. Now the price is constantly rising, it is a good time to leave.

Hearing Lin Hao's words, the wiper no longer hesitated and quickly tapped the sell order. More than 12 billion US dollars of London gold were constantly traded. Because it was sold in batches and in different accounts, it did not cause price fluctuations. However, a large amount of funds fled, and the speed of the rise was delayed. It can be seen that it has dropped a lot.

Even when the price reached 409, it did not break through. It was deadlocked for nearly an hour before breaking through the 410 mark. After the breakthrough, the price quickly fell to 410. , and then fell all the way.

The price in history broke through 413 US dollars per ounce. Now it has just reached 410 and it has fallen straight down. History still has deviations, but Lin Hao has sold all the goods in his hands, making a profit of 2.3 billion US dollars. Because it was sold in batches, the transaction price was above 400, and there was a little more profit.

And short selling began at the price of 410 until the closing price of the day was around 380.

"The holding cost of crude oil futures is 31 US dollars, and now it has risen to 80 US dollars. The profit has doubled to 158.06%. The current amount has reached 516.16, and the profit amount is 31.616 billion US dollars."

(There is another chapter to be published later. The data above has been checked a lot of information, and the results are all kinds of things. Just take a look, don't take it seriously!)
