Rebirth of England

"Rosie, where's Colin?"

"Madam, Mr. Hall is meeting guests in the study, and he is not allowed to disturb them..."

Catherine frowned slightly when she heard the maid's words.

She walked up the stairs, hesitated for a moment, but still did not go to the study, but returned to her bedroom.

…

"I said that things cannot be rushed. I have tied the rope around his neck, but now is not the best time. I need to strike a fatal blow when he is at his weakest, otherwise all the hard work will be in vain. .”

Colin Hall was walking back and forth in the study at this time, his words full of resentment.

"But we don't have much time, Mr. Hall. You know, he has now started to attack the London Stock Exchange. If he succeeds, do you understand what this means? There is data on most British companies there!"

The person who told him this was a slightly hoarse voice, but the other person was sitting in the shadow of the light and could not see clearly.

But after hearing his words, Colin Hall became even more excited:

"Then it's time for you to show your influence, F**K! Guess what I saw, even the Ministry of Finance claimed to 'remain neutral'. By remaining neutral, you are helping that kid!"

"Don't get excited, Mr. Hall. You have to know that it's not that we have done nothing. It's just that we don't know when he and Gordon Brown had some kind of tacit understanding. But this is not a problem. The Prime Minister still hasn't let go. We will try our best to delay it." Time, but you need to speed up, after all, DS Capital has already shouldered your debt of 6.5 billion pounds. In addition, their other debts are piling up, and only the first domino is left to fall. It’s a small boost…”

When the other party said this, Colin Hall looked a little impatient, and he said angrily:

"I said, it takes time! You know, the assets he mortgaged are not listed companies yet. We can't use financial means to issue a 'push'. That guy is very careful. The only mortgage of a listed company is It was handed over to Standard Chartered Bank. That bank originally belonged to him! Can we compete with Wall Street and go short on Google? But this will only cause him minor trouble and is not fatal. "

"You bankers rely too much on financial power, Mr. Hall. To know the bad news about a company, you don't have to only start from the stock market. If the boss of the company has an accident..."

"Are you crazy? Do you want me to attack him directly?"

Facing Colin Hall's gaze, the other person's tone remained calm:

"His father and brother..."

"I have said many times that it was not what I did. It is impossible for me to do such a thing to a Duke, and it is impossible for me to do it to the extent that Scotland Yard cannot find out..."

"Scotland Yard?"

The other party smiled contemptuously:

"Don't forget, oftentimes, suspicion does not require evidence, Mr. Hall."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, Barclays can stay out of it now, and even we can stay out of it, but you can't. Either you die or he dies. Have you ever heard of the fate of those people on the 'London Star'? If you don't do anything anymore, You are probably next, Mr. Hall, don’t think that the other person is really a nice guy.”

…

At this time, Barron was already on the return plane...

Originally, he had planned a trip to the United States, but now the general election there is in full swing...

It can be said that this month, almost the whole world's attention is focused on the American election. It is difficult to decide the winner between the current President and the Donkey Party candidate John Kerry. Naturally, Barron is not willing to go there at this time. join in the fun.

After all, more of his "donation" this time was given to the current psychic side of the Elephant Party, while Kerry of the Donkey Party has a close relationship with the Kennedy family. If Barron comes to the United States, it can be said that both parties will be bad. He wanted to participate, but it was inevitable that he would meet with the Kennedy family, so he finally decided to avoid this period of time and wait until early next month, after the election results were settled.

By the time I returned to London, it was already October 12th.

Since the end of last month, on September 28, international oil prices exceeded 50 US dollars for the first time this year. After some fluctuations, by October, they had stabilized above 50 US dollars...

On October 12, the international oil price reached its highest price of the day, reaching US$54.46.

According to the original trend of time and space, after ten days, the international oil price will exceed 55 US dollars in one fell swoop, reaching the peak of this year's oil price.

In this case, from now on, DS Capital has already started to close their long orders on crude oil futures...

After all, the self-operated part of DS Capital has a relatively high position in crude oil futures. It is impossible to wait until the crude oil price reaches its highest before starting to close the position. The result of that may be disastrous.

In July this year, DS Capital pledged its shares in Summit Media, which had just been listed, to Standard Chartered Bank, and loaned out 1.55 billion pounds of funds from there, equivalent to more than 2.8 billion US dollars, of which 1.8 billion The U.S. dollar entered the account of the Global Industrial Investment Fund as 30% of DS Capital's own funds...

The other US$1 billion was long on crude oil with a leverage of 10 times when the price of crude oil was at US$36.

In addition, much earlier, Mars Fund and part of the self-operated funds of DS Investment Company had already opened long positions in crude oil futures...

Based on this calculation, even if DS Capital's self-invested portion outside of the Mars fund is successful in closing the position at the current price, their profit this time will exceed US$6.5 billion!

So don't look at Barron's. On the bright side, the accumulated debt of DS Holdings has exceeded 13.2 billion pounds. This is in addition to the recent acquisition of Gucci Group and the completion of privatization, thus pledging shares in Northron Rock Bank. A new loan of 2.5 billion pounds, and a 3 billion pound financing obtained from Standard Chartered Bank by pledging Gucci Group shares - but Barron did not have much reason to be nervous.

After all, in addition to these upcoming profits in the crude oil futures market, by the end of the year, the profits from EUR/USD foreign exchange futures will be even higher than this time...

This is also why Barron was so sure at the beginning. It’s hard for others to say, but Rolf of Barclays Bank, although he doesn’t have a comprehensive understanding of DS Capital’s position operations, he still has a general understanding of securities investment assets. The insiders of some concepts will not participate in actions against themselves as long as they are not crazy.

Not only that, he will even try his best to stand on his own side and not reveal these inside stories.
