So when George Soros makes a move, particularly a big one, the market listens.
And that's exactly what just happened.
Hedge funds are required to provide quarterly portfolio updates through 13-F filings. These filings are a great place to see what the biggest and most successful hedge funds have been up to.
Recent 13-f filings reveal Soros has turned bearish on the S&P 500.
That shows up in his largest position, buying 1.25 million put options on the S&P 500. His allocation grew to 4.79% from 1.28%. This is a huge leveraged play against the S&P 500 and American economy. Clearly Soros is concerned about an unsustainable debt load as interest rates have begun creeping higher while the Fed hints at tapering QE.
This big move is also notable because Soros has a history of nailing huge trades directly before big macro events.
Example #1: Soros crushed every trading record in the book in 1991 after shorting the English Pound, "breaking the Bank of England" and scoring a $1 billion profit.
So when Soros makes a big move there is reason to take notice. |
