Soros to return outsiders' hedge fund money.

BOSTON (Reuters) - Billionaire investor George Soros, whose stock-picking career has spanned nearly four decades, said he will manage money only for himself and his family as new regulations threaten to crimp the hedge fund industry he made famous.

The octogenarian fund manager, known as much for earning $1 billion on a nervy currency bet as for giving away millions to support liberal causes, will return roughly $1 billion to outside investors most likely by the end of the year and turn Soros Fund Management into a family office. The sum represents only a small portion of the $25 billion he oversees.


Fishy timing...?

Apparenly he is not alone, other hedgefund managers have done the same. They are attributing this to sringent regulations. Read ful aticle. http...html

I think this marks the beginning of the end of hot money in & out of commodities. Great news for main-street.

Im scared, how do you forestall prospects of my source income prospects vanishing into thin air.Sad Anyway if this were to happen(unlikely), fx guys are not the despondent type n r quite versatile. Equipped with our technical analist skills, we can quickly adopt to international stocks and commodities.

USD Suffers as Politicians Fight.

Either way, the US political wrangling and heavy-handed rhetoric is spilling out, generating a high level of uncertainty across markets and eroding the USD’s position.

President Obama stated that a “default would risk causing a deep economic crisis.”

In Australia, the RBA Stevens’ speech was relatively optimistic on the economy which supported the AUDUSD’s rally.

EM Asian currencies continue to show themselves as relatively resilient to events in the western world and we expect this decoupling to continue.

@ceinz smile just be cautios. that hedge fund liquidity is heavy and its reduced presence will surely have a visible impact on pricing. A lot of the investors who'll get their money back have no clue of how to work the mkts without the likes of Soros et.all managing their funds..see what I mean? Long plays on ccys will still prevail..can't really rely on the banksters abroad as they are also up for more regulations confining them to core biz n less from the trading desks. My 2cts. In all things it is a choice as to whether to be a victim or a victor of events. smile if I were in ur position i'd be timing to go short on all manner of commodities as statistics from abroad clearly show that main street is in the tank YET commodities are at all time highs!! I think that disconnect will be addressed soon. smile kazi kwako.
