I am a nobleman in England

"By the way, how is the trend of U.S. stocks and gold?"

When Smith Jamal was about to get up and leave, Arthur asked concerned that although the gold futures in his hand had been cleared long ago, after all, he still had tons of spot gold lying in his bank vault, and the U.S. stock market was his heavy position.

"not optimistic."

Smith shook his head and replied, "Although, because of the remarks made by Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke yesterday that suppressed the US dollar, after the opening this morning, spot gold rose 0.5%, ending the three-day losing streak.

However, US stocks opened sharply lower and the Dow fell more than 100 points in early trading.This increased risk aversion and dampened the demand for high-risk assets.

At the same time, the Bureau of Statistics of the United Kingdom announced this morning that the monthly rate of manufacturing output in the United Kingdom was flat in October, and the annual rate fell 7.8%. Previously, it was expected that the monthly rate would increase by 0.4% and the annual rate would fall by 7.2%.This shows that the British manufacturing industry is still weak, suppressing the decline of the pound, the pound to the dollar fell further from 1.6316 in New York time, and then the exchange rate fell below the 1.6300 integer level.

Spot gold is currently at $1,163.30 per ounce, and the price of gold has fallen in the previous trading days, although it has attracted investors to buy on dips.However, according to our analysis, if the U.S. dollar strengthens, then the price of gold will not be stable at the current price."

"Hehe, it seems that the US dollar will no longer be a pure safe-haven asset, or a measure of value!" Arthur narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.

"The key is that Fed Chairman Bernanke, given that the recovery is still fragile, said that interest rates will remain unchanged for a longer period of time, which has benefited the US dollar. In the past five months, the US dollar has benefited from economic data several times. Stronger, but I think I will soon return to the more common pattern of positive data that is negative for the dollar. I am still optimistic about the gold market." Angela said from the side.

"Well, I also like gold, but now let's put our main focus on the euro. After the profit is closed, we can go both sides. Neither gold futures nor shorting the euro can be let go." Arthur's eyes were bright. Said with a smile.

"Boss, in this way, our manpower is a bit nervous." Smith Jamal said embarrassedly.

"Hehe, then recruit people. It's time to expand the scale of the investment company. By the way, Angela, your advisory team should also expand the scale. Next year, there will be an IPO of coastal power plants and acquisitions. There is too much work. Now, don’t have a shortage of manpower."

Everything is developing for the better. After this time of getting along and understanding between Angela and Smith Jama, he is basically satisfied. It is time to expand the two people's team and give them more trust and power. .

"Good boss."

Angela and Smith Jama said in unison, with happy smiles on their faces.

"By the way, there is one more thing. Christmas is about to pass in ten days. Although everyone did not work for me for too long, the work efficiency and results during this period are very significant. I am also very satisfaction.

In this way, Smith, the investment company, each person will give out a Christmas bonus of 10,000 pounds, and the middle level will be 20,000, and you will have 50,000. Everyone has a happy Christmas."Arthur leaned comfortably in the boss chair and said with a smile.

"Thanks to the boss for his generosity, I think everyone will be very happy and thank the boss."

For Smith’s gratitude, Arthur didn’t care, he just waved his hand with a smile, and said, “I said, I’m not a stingy person. Tell everyone, this time short the euro, everyone do it well, the more I gain, The more their bonus!"

"Good boss, I will definitely bring your original words to everyone." Smith Jama smiled happily.

Arthur nodded and waited until Smith left, then smiled and said to Angela: "It's Christmas. Everyone is rewarded. The advisory team is 20,000 per person and you are 50,000."

"Thanks to the boss for his generosity." Angela was naturally also very happy, thanking her with a smile.

I have to say that young bosses are really generous. It is not common for companies to receive a little extra reward in Europe. Employers often choose other forms of non-financial benefits, such as Christmas dinners and parties, and hold celebrations for their children. , Small gifts or gift certificates.

Although Christmas bonuses are the most common in some Central European countries, less than half of employees have received such bonuses, and the actual bonuses themselves are not high.Under normal circumstances, the bonus is about 20 to 30% of the basic monthly salary, an average of about two to three hundred euros.

It is indeed the first time Angela has seen a Christmas bonus like Arthur's starting at 10,000 pounds, and has a new understanding of the boss' generosity.

Angela, who left happily, did not know Arthur’s thoughts. To be honest, he has made enough money in the past six months. Instead of putting it on the account to pay the high shui in the UK, it is better to use it to distribute part of it Buy people's hearts.

In normal times, some bonuses are given. This group always thinks that it is their labor income and deserves it. It is really not as effective as sending it on important festivals, and it can make these subordinates think of him. It is also easier to buy people's hearts.

I have to say that spending money is really addictive!

Arthur picked up the phone and directly called Corinna, the CEO of Coastal Power Plant, "It’s me, it’s like this. Isn’t it going to be Christmas soon? I decided to give every power plant employee two thousand pounds for Christmas. Bonus, 10,000 for the management, 50,000 for your senior executives, I hope you all have a happy Christmas!"

"Hull, it's me. Isn't Christmas coming soon? I'm going to send you a Christmas red envelope..."

"...The newspaper will give out a Christmas bonus of £500 each."

......

Simply can not stop!

This ring of phone calls made Arthur completely become a wealthy boy, a game job, a coastal power plant, a martial arts world website, a newspaper, a publishing house, and a club.

Good guy, don’t look at the least as being only five hundred pounds, but it’s really overwhelming that there are too many people who eat with him now, not too many, not too little, he now manages almost two thousand people, and this lap is scattered and it cost him. Millions of pounds are a big deal!

"Paul, it's me. How's the house going?"

Arthur, who threw out several million pounds in one breath, didn't feel heartache. After all, he didn't spend it himself, and the British ZF would help him spend it. Instead of letting them take them as good people, he would come directly.

"...Hehe, that's good, how about the crew over there? Well, it's better to be lively, hehe, how about Eddie and Emilia?"

Arthur, who hadn't returned to the castle for a long time, smiled and listened to the butler Paul's narration. It was only after half an hour that Arthur smiled and returned to business.

"Paul, it's like this. Isn't it just about Christmas? I am going to give everyone a Christmas bonus to the castle. Thank them for their hard work this year. Each person is 5,000 pounds. What do you think? "

Out of respect for Paul the butler, Arthur did not directly make a decision, but asked the other person's opinion. After a little indulgent, Paul the butler smiled and thanked Arthur for his generosity on behalf of all the waiters and servants.

As for the butler Paul, Arthur gave a bonus of 100,000 pounds. Paul refused at first, but after Arthur's insistence, Paul was very grateful to accept it.

Hanging up the phone, Arthur felt very comfortable. I have to say that spending money is really a very happy thing!
