If Soros is the One Who Bet on US Downgrade…Then Here Is How He Did It

As reported earlier on The Blaze, George Soros, the 81-year-old Hungarian billionaire, is suspected of having profited from the United States’ recent credit downgrading. According to ETF Daily News:

“Someone dropped a bomb on the bond market Thursday – a $1 billion Armageddon trade betting the United States will lose its AAA credit rating. In one moment, an invisible trader placed a single trade that moved the most liquid debt market in the world. The massive trade wasn’t placed in bonds themselves; it was placed in the futures market. The trade was for block trades of 5,370 10-year Treasury futures executed at 124-03 and 3,100 Treasury bond futures executed at 125-01.”

The rumor is that Soros bought 5,370 of these ten year Treasury futures and is thought to have also purchased 3,100 Treasury bond futures. The news site examiner.com draws its own conclusions:

“Of course, this mystery bet could have been made by any Hedge Fund that followed Soro’s course of action, and went private on their own.  However, very few people have the inside contacts with the Treasury Department and Obama administration that Soros does, and the historical evidence does point strongly to this bet being one that he has done in the past.”

By “past” they are of course referring to Soros’ most infamous moment.

16 September, 1992 was “Black Wednesday”: the day the British Conservative government was forced to withdraw the pound from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM). They had no choice; they were unable to keep sterling above its agreed lower limit. However, despite this economic setback, George Soros still managed to walk away $1 billion richer.

How did he do it? Shortselling.

Shortselling is the practice of selling assets, usually securities that have been borrowed from a third party (i.e. a broker), with the intention of buying back identical assets for less at a later date to return to the lender.

The whole point is to profit from the decline in the price of the asset(s) between the sale and the repurchase. The seller will pay less to buy the assets than they did selling them. Conversely, the short seller will suffer a loss if the price of the assets rises.

But Soros did not have to worry about that. He banked on the devaluation of the pound.

On September 16, 1992, Soros’s fund sold short more than $10 billion worth of pounds, profiting from the UK government’s reluctance to either raise its interest rates to levels comparable to those of other ERM countries (or to “float its currency”). He shrewdly bet that England’s government would be forced out, thus reducing the worth of the assets he had just sold. He simply bought them back for a lower price than he had sold it for and he returned it to the lender.

The aftermath to Soros’ actions?

High British interest rates put Britain into recession as large numbers of businesses failed and the housing market crashed. Many people in the UK think of “Black Wednesday” as a national disaster although some conservatives have claimed that the forced ejection from the ERM was a “Golden Wednesday,” paving the way for an economic revival.

The British government had been vigorously trying to breath life into Sterling for some time, and this lead to a noticeable weakness that Soros exploited when he bet on the pound being devalued. He was rewarded with a huge profit for his bet.

For this, he was dubbed “the man who broke the Bank of England.” Some suspect him of being the man who might try to break the bank of America.

We haven’t even begun to see the repurcussions. And all funded by tax paying citizens. What a sad shell of a country. .

      I warned Glenn Becks people of a big short sell coming on Aug 4th. Her’s the first part of the e-mail.

      “Why is the stock market going down? The simple answer…

      You might want to read this even though it is a bit long…

      A good friend of mine put all three of his children through college by doing the
      exact opposite of what his stock broker advised. When the stock market goes
      down his broker would call and say, “XYZ company stocks are down so it’s a good
      time buy while their down”. This is called, “cost average down.” Is the broker buying
      the same stocks that he wants you to buy? No, he’s shorting them.

      Short selling is a devious little thing that rich people use to make money, lots of
      money, when the stock market drops. And it’s a planned act. By “a planned act” I
      mean that they know that the market will go down because of events that are going on.

      Here’s an example of a planned act; Intel comes out at the beginning of a quarter and
      announces its prediction for their companies performance for the upcoming quarter.
      This will be done on a Monday morning. Intel says, (and this actually happened) “We are
      not going to install any new equipment in any of our CPU manufacturing plants this quarter.”
      Intel’s stock starts to drops because people think that they are doing bad. No new equipment
      means no growth. All week the stock drops. Then, on Friday evening, Intel comes out and
      says, “The reason we are not installing any ne

      Continued;
      “The reason we are not installing any new equipment in any of our CPU plants is because
      we are ahead of schedule and have already installed the new equipment. The stock starts
      to go back up on Monday morning. This really happened in the early 2000’s (maybe 2001 to 2003)

      Here’s another true example that includes Nature as a catalyst. I think this one happened in 2004.
      McDonalds comes out in the 1st week of the 1st quarter and states, “Our business is doing great andwe expect good growth.” The stock rises all quarter. But, the entire Northeast gets hit with a huge
      snowstorm for the entire 1st quarter. Schools and businesses close, highways close, Government
      shuts down, you might remember this. The entire Northeast of the US is devastated.
      [Business (that are in the Dow Jones) have to come out the 1st week of each quarter to give a
      prediction for that quarter. Then, in the last week of that quarter they have to come out and
      state how they are doing for that quarter.]

      So, McDonalds comes out, knowing full well, and says, “Because of all the snow, we did far less
      than we expected for this quarter.” Their stock starts to drop, of course. And all their friends and
      brokers make a ton of money.

BO is going down and Soros wanted his money back with interest. Maybe. it just seems odd that someone made a bet on the downgrade just before it happen. If it was anybody else congress would call for an investigation on insider trading. lets see if anything happens.

      Soros is the definition of pure unadulterated selfish evil. He started with raiding his fellow Jews to pirate their valuables for his NAZI bosses during WWII. He continued this exact same modus operandi by creating political useful idiots to bring down the economies of Four other countries including England while he became one of the richest men in the world through hedge fund selling short.

      It has ALWAYS been about this. The socialist Robin Hood nonsense was always just that…a cover story to keep the usefull idiots busy while Soros raided their savings and retirement plans through insider currency manipulation by his own insider operatives.

      Did he know about it? Hell he CREATED it through over twenty years of very hard work and investment…first with the secret party with Bill and Hillary and now with his talking head useful idiot Obama.

      What we have here is a Chicago mobster writ large…Communism is the ultimate form of monopoly…one guaranteed by government. What Soros is doing through Obama is merely transferring massive wealth from the bank and savings accounts of millions of poor and lower middle class fools into a few ultra wealth monsters like him through insider currency manipulation.

Romney knew about the downgrade before everyone else, and he had a speech all ready to go minutes after the downgrade was announced. Or maybe it was Soros, or maybe it was some other rich billionaire. If this were some political plot to purposely downgrade the country so a few could get richer, it couldn’t have just involved Obama & Soros, after all it was the REPUBLICANS unwillingness to raise revenue through taxes that partially caused the downgrade.

    “suddenly” the market crashes. That was Soros “helping” his buddy Obama to win because the SHEEPLE thought a guy with ZERO experience running anything (Obama) could fix the economy.

    In 2012, if Soros believes Obama cannot win even with an Obama/Clinton ticket, Soros has nothing to lose and will probably make the USA the 6th country currency he destroyed.

    In 2012, if Soros does this, he would do it BEFORE the elections which won‘t help Obama win because the Sheeple woke up to Obama’s stupidity. BUT, would Obama use the “crisis” to suspend the elections – especially he sent his minions out to riot/start fires/etc all over the country? If Obama suspended the elections and gets away with it to stay on as president which is how most dictators come into power, then Soros would have done Obama another favor.

    NO DOUBT. ALSO: this is the “man” who caused the 2008 run which almost toppled our country because his little puppet was fixing to loose the presidency. WE simply must do something to keep these hedge fund GAMBLERS from controlling our market. I ‘m sorry I don’t understand the workings of it enough to offer a solution, but there are people who do. While we’re fixing the “rock star” trappings and status of the SERVANTS we elect to SEND TO DC…we need to do something about the FEDERAL RESERVE, FANNIE/FREDDIE and the Hedge Fund Traders. I don‘t know but I’ve heard it said that IF we demand that they keep what they buy, that will prevent the interlopers from screwing up the market.. (as in the barrels of oil or bushels of corn etc) Otherwise they sit near Wall Street with their lap tops and GAMBLE with our country’s assets all day long. I know there is freedom, but something is wrong when it gets so out of kilter.

      Here are the Investors to his Hedge Fund and some of whom were involved with his 1992 British Pound Sterling run.

      http://www.questionsquestions.net/docs04/engdahl-soros.html

      These are the Sheeple that he was trying to hide by taking his fund private and paying off the investors so they did not profit from his move on the American Economy since that would be close to treason for some of them considering that one investor family had two presidents recently in power.

      Read the article and you will see that we were had before Obama. Glenn pegged it right when he railed against the previous presidents that recklessly spent our money and now you can see why.

      If we can‘t stop this then it was to be in the cards for God’s return to Earth through his Heir to the throne Joshua (Jewish translation of Jesus since Jesus is the Greek version of his name???)…

      1TRUEONE55……….that was VERY interesting and upsetting. Glenn does not get this close to Soros in the world, he sticks to what he is doing to this country. This artical lets us know how it all ties together. I was not surprised by the names I saw. How do we fight this?

      Soros is setting up his influential organization to last far beyond his death. Just take a look at how many names that end in Soros are involved with his hedge funds. The Soros influence will continue for years if we don’t put a stop to it! Time for a HUGE investigation. But we have no justice department anymore. Just another pawn for the White House.

      Public Law 95-435, which was signed into law by Jimmy Carter, requires a balanced budget. It is already federal law that the federal budget be balanced.
      PL 95-435: “Sec. 7. Beginning in fiscal year 1981, the total budget outlays of the Federal Government shall not exceed its receipts”.

    I know what he did is probably legal. But if the Obama adminstration or the T Dept let him know in advance what they were going to do, wouldnl’t that be some sort of Treason on the part of the adminstration? And if it is, then we need an investigation into this by a senate committee. The only way to bring down this secret government behind the scenes government is to reveal it.

      Eternal life is one thing Soros cannot buy. Neither can the race baiters Jesse Jackson who is in his 70‘s or Al Sharpton who just looks like he is in his 70’s but is in his late 50′s. Sharptons bitter life must have cost his body a lot because he looks like hell. There will be lots of people sighing in relief when the devil calls them home.
