Chapter 668 (1/2)
Soros's backhand is very simple, since he can't win Yesu in the futures market.
Then he is ready to influence the price of platinum in other ways and raise the price of platinum.
Futures are only related to the price of goods, but it is not said that they can not bypass futures to directly affect the physical goods.
If Soros can make platinum prices rise in other ways, he can also laugh at the end.
In this way, even if his capital can not compare with Ye Su, he can also defeat Ye Su in the futures war.
It is not only futures that affects the price of platinum. There are many factors that can affect the price of platinum.
Although futures can greatly affect the price of goods, it is not a decisive factor.
In fact, futures is just a kind of financial derivatives, which can affect the real price only because of its large scale.
But if there are some changes in the nature of such goods, futures will not be able to continue to affect physical goods.
Among them, the relationship between supply and demand is the most critical factor, and also the biggest factor determining the price of a commodity.
If the output of a good is less than the demand, the price will certainly soar all the way.
Ye Su's bottom card is actually related to this, and it is also the price change caused by the direct intervention of supply and demand for dry cleaning.
He will soon be able to own 400 tons of platinum, which is far beyond the world's current demand for platinum.
If the platinum flows into the market, it is impossible for the price of platinum to fall.
The price of 400 tons of platinum can't be digested on the earth, so the price can't be high.
But this time Soros wants to use the means, actually with Ye Su's bottom card is also similar.
He is going to intervene in the production of platinum and reduce the output of platinum.
If the output of platinum declines, the price of platinum will certainly rise substantially.
This is where the basic relationship between supply and demand determines the price, and it is also where futures cannot affect it.
I didn't expect that the two sides of the futures war, the bottom cards are almost the same.
It's just that on the one hand, it can reduce the production of platinum, while on the other hand, it can take out a large amount of surface platinum, which is exactly the same in principle.
Yesu was able to take out so much platinum because he mined platinum on Mars.
So how can Soros reduce the production of platinum? After all, he is not a platinum miner, so he can't directly make the decision to reduce production.
But people like Soros naturally have his way to influence the platinum mining process.
Soon Soros contacted a friend in South Africa and told him about this.
South Africa is the largest platinum producing area in the world. If there is any problem in platinum mining here, platinum production will be greatly affected.
Then the price of platinum will go up all the way, allowing Soros to win the final victory.
The friend Soros contacted was a special person who often dealt with some shady things.
