Chapter 1052: Taking Advantage of the Fire

Midnight, in the study.

Yao Yuan was holding a military satellite phone and talking to Uncle Chen from the secret operations team.

"It is a foregone conclusion that the two housing agencies will be fully taken over by the U.S. Treasury Department. According to the current trend, it is estimated that relevant news will be leaked after the U.S. stock market closes today."

"Then we will formulate a takeover plan, and it will take about a month until the company is fully taken over. There is a lot of room for maneuver."

"We can just follow the established plan and close all short positions in the two housing agencies' stocks and bonds before the U.S. stock market closes today and realize profits."

"Then take out no more than half of the investment profit, go long on the stocks and bonds of the two housing companies, and reap another wave of long profits, but the leverage cannot be too high."

"Once the news that the U.S. Treasury Department is taking full control of the two housing agencies comes out, the stocks and bonds of the two housing agencies will definitely rebound violently. We cannot miss this opportunity."

"But we also have to be prepared for the sudden suspension of trading in the stocks and bonds of the two housing agencies, which will last until they are fully taken over, so we have to take it one step at a time and decide based on the situation..."

Next, Yao Yuan outlined all the strategies he had thought of.

After listening to his analysis, Uncle Chen thought for a moment and then gave a response.

"Okay, Yao Yuan, we'll notify everyone right away and adjust the investment strategy according to your plan, and reap another wave of profits!"

"I have something to tell you. According to news from Washington, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve headquarters are very busy right now, and the exchanges between the two have become much more frequent."

"Just now, the CEOs of the two housing agencies have set off on their private jets to Washington, probably to meet with Paulson to discuss the takeover."

Hearing this, Yao Yuan suddenly laughed.

"That's definitely the case. No one can save the two housing agencies except the US Treasury Department now."

"Both the CEOs are idiots, and Paulson has had enough of them"

"Just wait and see. Once the U.S. Treasury Department takes full control of the two housing agencies, it will definitely fire these two idiots at the first opportunity!"

“Hahaha, I think so too.”

Uncle Chen laughed and said, extremely happy.

Next, Yao Yuan discussed with him for a while before ending the call.

Afterwards, he called Zhou Chaoyang and Director Li respectively to tell them about adjusting their investment strategies!

Let them close all short positions related to the two housing agencies before the closing of the U.S. stock market today, and instead invest part of the funds to go long!

Zhou Chaoyang and Director Li had no doubts about his suggestion and decided to implement it immediately!

In the blink of an eye, it was already around one o'clock in the morning.

Seeing that the situation was settled, Yao Yuan turned off the computer, left the study, and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

At this time, Liu Jingwen had already fallen asleep and was sleeping soundly!

Seeing this situation, Yao Yuan smiled softly and went into the bathroom to wash up.

A few minutes later, he finished washing up and walked out of the bathroom.

But he did not wake Liu Jingwen up to make love with her. Instead, he lay down beside her and fell asleep quickly.

Just as he fell asleep, the international financial market was changing rapidly and becoming extremely lively.

Before the U.S. stock market closed, many rumors were circulating in the market.

The core content of these rumors is that the US Treasury Department will take over the two housing agencies in full and inject at least hundreds of billions of dollars into them to save them.

The only difference is the amount of funds injected by the U.S. Treasury into the two housing agencies. Some say it is $100 billion, some say it is $150 billion, and some say it is $200 billion.

Some even have wild ideas and say that the US Treasury will take out $500 billion to $600 billion to completely solve the problems of the two housing agencies at one time.

As these rumors emerged, the market's fear about the collapse of the two housing agencies eased a little.

As the U.S. stock market closed, the stock and bond prices of the two housing companies, which had previously plummeted, finally stopped falling and stabilized.

After the U.S. stock market closed, the share prices and bond prices of the two housing companies began to rise in the after-hours market, and rose by more than 10% in one go!

At this time, Jiuye Investment Group, the secret action team, and several state-owned financial institutions had closed all short positions related to the two housing agencies and secured their profits!

Not only that, they turned from short to long one after another, quickly changing their positions from short to long, and then turned to go long in a big way!

Then he took advantage of the sharp rebound in the stock and bond prices of the two housing agencies after the market closed and made another big profit!

In addition, in response to the downgrade of the two housing bonds to junk status, governments and central banks around the world have spoken out, demanding that the US government ensure the safety of the two housing bonds.

In particular, the Japanese government, central bank, and financial community are almost in a begging attitude.

We request the US government to ensure the safety of the two housing bonds, otherwise Japan will suffer heavy losses, and God knows how many people will jump off buildings and commit suicide!

The successive statements made by governments and central banks around the world have created considerable pressure, forcing the US government and Wall Street to take it seriously!

This is one of the important reasons why the stocks and bonds of the two housing agencies stopped falling and rebounded.

Yao Yuan had no idea what happened later.

To him, none of this matters anymore; the short selling campaign against the two housing agencies is now over.

Next, it’s time to go long, until the U.S. Treasury Department takes full control of the two housing agencies and they are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange one after another!

By then, the two housing agencies will withdraw from the open financial market and fade out of Yao Yuan's sight.

As for the symbolic purchase of the two housing bonds, since they are backed by US dollar credit, the repayment of principal and interest can still be guaranteed!

More importantly, the profits that Jiuye Investment Group and the secret action team made from the two housing agencies were hundreds of times more than the cost of purchasing the bonds!

From this perspective, even if billions of dollars of Fannie and Freddie Mac bonds become waste paper, it doesn't matter. Just think of it as giving alms to beggars!

After only a few hours of sleep, the sky was already bright.

Unlike in the past, Liu Jingwen was the first to wake up today.

Yao Yuan, who was sleeping next to her, was still immersed in his dreams.

After opening her eyes, Liu Jingwen turned to look at Yao Yuan, then leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Then he picked up the phone on the bedside table and checked the time.

Then he slid off the bed and tiptoed into the bathroom to wash up.

Around 7:30, Yao Yuan was awakened by the alarm on his cell phone. He got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.

About ten minutes later, he walked into the restaurant alone and prepared to have breakfast.

At this time, Dad, Mom and Liu Jingwen were sitting at the dining table, eating and chatting.

Seeing him come in, my mother immediately said:

"Xiao Yuan, call Zhou Xu and Wu Lan later and tell them..."

"After the graduation ceremony in the morning, tell their parents not to leave in a hurry. We will treat everyone to a meal together in the afternoon at your aunt's restaurant."

"I've told your aunt-in-law that the restaurant will not be open to the public this afternoon and evening. We've reserved the place for ourselves!"

"You have a very good relationship with your classmates. Some of them work under you. Most of the students who are studying for a master's degree are in Beijing. You should visit them more often in the future."

"We are also half the host, so it is necessary to take this opportunity to have a meal with other students' parents and communicate with them!"

Yao Yuan smiled and nodded, then continued:

"I know. Even if you don't tell me about this, I will arrange it."

"I'll call Zhou Xu and the others later and ask them to notify their parents and have dinner together in the evening."

"In addition to the parents, I also plan to invite two professors and Teacher Liu and others. They will all attend the graduation ceremony today!"

As he said this, he pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Of course, no problem. After the graduation ceremony, your dad and I can pick up Professor Ouyang and the others and come back together."

"When we have dinner in the afternoon, we will go from the courtyard to your aunt's restaurant."

Mom nodded and said.

Next, everyone ate breakfast and chatted.

After chatting for a while, Yao Yuan's cell phone suddenly rang.

He took out his cell phone and looked at the display, then quickly stood up and said:

"It's Director Li from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. I went to the hospital to answer it. It should be related to something that happened late last night."

After saying that, he left the dining table and walked quickly into the yard.

Mom and Dad looked at each other and nodded in unison.

In just a few steps, Yao Yuan arrived in the yard and answered the phone casually.

"Good morning, Director Li. I didn't expect you to call me so early. Do you have any good news?"

"You slept so late last night. I thought you would not wake up until around ten in the morning!"

The next moment, Director Li's excited voice came from the phone.

"Good morning, Yao Yuan. How can I sleep at such a critical moment today?"

"Not only me, but also several members of the investment team were busy until after five in the morning before we could rest!"

"The situation at Central Huijin and SDIC is the same. Anyone watching the two housing bonds today cannot leave their posts until dawn tomorrow, Saturday."

"If you feel tired or sleepy, you can only take a nap on the chair or lie down on the sofa in the lounge area or meeting room so that you can start trading at any time."

Yao Yuan paused for a moment, and instantly understood what was going on.

"We should remain highly vigilant now. After all, we still hold $60 billion in Fannie and Freddie bonds. We must keep a close eye on the movements of the two housing agencies and the U.S. Treasury Department."

"If the two housing agencies launch a surprise attack and declare bankruptcy protection in the middle of the night, we will be able to respond in time."

"Urgently sell off some of the two housing bonds, sell as many as possible, and immediately protest and negotiate with the US Treasury Department."

Director Li smiled and continued:

"That's what I mean. Although Paulson has promised to take over the two housing agencies, we still have to be more careful. The credibility of the US has always been poor."

"Let's talk about last night's operations. Your judgment is so accurate. I just got the statistical results submitted by various investment departments."

"In last night's action, the investment teams made a total of nearly $3 billion by shorting the two housing bonds and subprime mortgage bonds, and then going long."

"This doesn't even include the state-owned capital team under your group. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Gu's team made a profit of several billion dollars from their investment last night. Your group has even more."

"To be honest, I have rarely seen such amazing investment profits, and I have never made so much money overnight. Everyone is very excited now!"

"Now I really understand how terrifying Jiuye Investment's ability to make money is and why its development speed is so astonishing. It is basically robbing money from the international financial market!"

"Hahaha, you're exaggerating!"

Yao Yuan said with a smile, introducing the situation with some pride.

"This kind of God-given opportunity is rare. Now that we have come across it, we must not let it go. Otherwise, even if I eat dragon liver and phoenix gall, it will not taste good!"

"To be honest, the investment profit of our Jiuye Investment Group from last night's battle should be more than 20 billion US dollars."

"The investment profit of Mr. Gu's team is at least 40 to 50 billion US dollars. This investment profit can be used to acquire Lehman Brothers' high-quality assets in the future."

Here, he did not mention the secret operation team’s investment profit last night, which was an even more astonishing figure!

Although Director Li was the head of the SASAC, he was unaware of the existence of the secret action team.

Not surprisingly, Director Li was once again shocked by the numbers Yao Yuan said.

"Wow! Earning over 20 billion dollars in one night, this earning power is truly amazing!"

"No wonder Jiuye Investment has become one of the world's top investment banks in such a short period of time. It really is a well-deserved reputation!"

After chatting for a few more sentences, Director Li suddenly changed the subject.

"Yao Yuan, let me tell you something. Analyze it yourself and see how to deal with it!"

"Just now, Paulson contacted us through a special channel and said that the US Treasury Department is discussing a plan to take over the two housing agencies completely."

"Before the takeover process is initiated, this news will not be announced to the public, but in a few days, this news will be made public."

"Tonight may be the last trading day for the two housing companies' stocks. After the market closes tomorrow morning, the two housing companies' stocks may be suspended until they are fully taken over by the U.S. Treasury Department."

"So we have to respond early, and the US has made it clear that we should not hype up the stocks and bonds of the two housing agencies and aggravate market turmoil!"

"From this, we can see that our blocking action last night has attracted the attention of the US. It seems that we need to be more restrained today and leave in time!..."

Hearing this, Yao Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"Paulson's actions are quite fast. It is obvious that the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve have reached an agreement and a full takeover of the two housing agencies is imperative!"

"In this case, let's withdraw from the two housing stocks tonight, make some more profits, and then sell all the two housing stocks."

"The two housing bonds should be very stable, and there will be no problem in repaying the principal and interest. There is no need to rush to sell them. Let's wait and see what the US Treasury Department does..."

Next, Yao Yuan discussed with Director Li for a while before ending the call.

Then he returned to the study and called Zhou Chaoyang and Uncle Chen respectively, asking them to keep a close eye on the movements of the US Treasury Department and wait for the opportunity to act!

When I spoke, it was already around eight-thirty.

After breakfast and arranging everything, Yao Yuan took Liu Jingwen out of the courtyard and took a bus to the University of Finance and Economics to attend the graduation ceremony.

Mom and Dad plan to set off at around nine o'clock, and then go directly to the Finance University Stadium to meet up with Yao Yuan and the others.

Not long after the convoy drove out of Lingjing Hutong, Liu Jingwen's cell phone suddenly rang.

She took out her cell phone, looked at the display, and then said excitedly:

"My parents have gotten off the plane. They will probably be at school in about an hour, just in time for the graduation ceremony!"

As she spoke, she pressed the answer button and started chatting with her mother.
