Soros' funds managed to ride out 2008's carnage with aplomb. According to Foreign Policy magazine, Soros's Quantum funds returned 10% in 2008, and according to Bloomberg, the Quantum Endowment Fund returned 8% last year. I'm not sure I believe this. Another Madoff?

Though George Soros has been vocally bearish at various points over the last year, the hedge fund he founded was finding a lot of places to buy as 2008 closed out. Soros' portfolio value, as reported on SEC filings, actually increased by 20% between the end of Q3 and the end of Q4. Sorry, but this seems to be incompetent reporting. He didn't have to buy anything to get positive returns, as a matter of fact he probably got these by selling short last year, at least in excess of his long positions.
