in 1969 the company founded a second fund for soros, the double eagle hedge fund.when investment regulations restricted h** ability to run the funds as he w**hed, he quit h** position in 1973 and establ**hed a private investment company that eventually evolved into the quantum fund. he has stated that h** intent was to earn enough money on wall street to support himself as an author and philosopher - he calculated that $500,000 after five years would be possible and adequate.he ** also a former member of the carlyle group.businesssoros ** the founder of soros fund management. in 1970 he co-founded the quantum fund with jim rogers, which created the bulk of the soros fortune. rogers retired from the fund in 1980. other partners h**e included victor niederhoffer and stanley druckenmiller.in late 2006, soros bought about 2 million shares of halliburton.in 2007, the quantum fund returned almost 32%, netting soros $2.9 billion.currency speculationon black wednesday (september 16, 1992), soros became immediately famous when he sold short more than $10 billion worth of pounds, profiting from the bank of england's reluctance to either ra**e its interest rates to levels comparable to those of other european exchange rate mechan**m countries or to float its currency.finally, the bank of england was forced to withdraw the currency from the european exchange rate mechan**m and to devalue the pound sterling, and soros earned an estimated us$ 1.1 billion in the process. he was dubbed "the man who broke the bank of england."the times of monday, october 26, 1992, quoted soros as saying: "our total position by black wednesday had to be worth almost $10 billion. we planned to sell more than that. in fact, when norman lamont said just before the devaluation that he would borrow nearly $15 billion to defend sterling, we were amused because that was about how much we wanted to sell."according to steven drobny, stanley druckenmiller, who traded under soros, originally saw the weakness in the pound. "soros' contribution was pushing him to take a gigantic position," in accord with druckenmiller's own research and instincts.in 1997, during the asian financial cr****, then malaysian prime min**ter mahathir bin mohamad accused soros of using the wealth under h** control to pun**h asean for welcoming myanmar as a member.public predictionssoros' 2008 book, the new paradigm for financial markets, describes a "superbubble" that has built up over the past 25 years and ** now ready to collapse. th** ** the third in a series of books he's written that h**e predicted d**aster. as he states:i h**e a record of crying wolf…. i did it first in the alchemy of finance (in 1987), then in the cr**** of global capital**m (in 1998) and now in th** book. so it's three books predicting d**aster. (after) the boy cried wolf three times . . . the wolf really came.he ascribes h** own success to being able to recognize when h** predictions are wrong.i'm only rich because i know when i'm wrong… i basically h**e survived by recognizing my m**takes. i very often used to get backaches due to the fact that i was wrong. whenever you are wrong you h**e to fight or [take] flight. when [i] make the dec**ion, the backache goes away.george soros said the world financial system has effectively d**integrated, adding that there ** yet no prospect of a near-term resolution to the cr****. we witnessed the collapse of the financial system[...]it was placed on life support, and it's still on life support. there's no sign that we are anywhere near a bottom.insider trading convictionin 1988, he was asked to join a takeover attempt of the french bank socité générale. he declined to participate in the bid but did later buy a number of shares in the company. french authorities began an investigation in 1989, and in 2002 a french court ruled that it was insider trading, a felony conviction as defined under french securities laws and fined him $2.3 million, which was the amount that he made using the insider **rmation.punitive damages were not sought because of the delay in bringing the case to trial. soros denied any wrongdoing and said news of the takeover was public knowledge.h** insider trading conviction was upheld by the highest court in france on june 14, 2006. in december, 2006 he appealed to the european court of human rights, claiming that the 14- year delay in bringing the case to trial precluded a fair hearing.sportsin 2005, soros joined a group of investors seeking to buy the washington nationals of major league baseball's national league. although he was only a minority partner, some republican lawmakers suggested that they might tamper with baseball's antitrust exemption if soros had any interest at all in any baseball team, including the nationals. ultimately, real estate magnate ted lerner was selected as the new owner, though baseball stressed that political pressure was not a factor. in 2008, soros' name was associated with as roma, an italian soccer team. some speculated that he had bought the club from the sensi family. however, despite offers by the american businessman, the club was not sold.soros was also the main financial backer of washington soccer l.p., the group that owned the operating rights to major league soccer club d.c. united when the league was founded in 1995. he divested himself of united in 2000. 20210311
