George Soros, the billionaire who earned fame by betting against the pound in 1992, said that a British vote on Thursday to leave the European Union would trigger a bigger and more disruptive sterling devaluation than the fall on Black Wednesday.
Soros used Quantum Fund in 1992 to bet successfully that sterling was overvalued against the Deutsche Mark, forcing then-Prime Minister John Major to pull the pound out of the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM).
Soros, in an opinion piece in the Guardian newspaper, said that in the event of a British exit, or Brexit, the pound would fall by at least 15 percent, and possibly more than 20 percent, to below $1.15 from its current level of around $1.46. …

What an evil man George Soros is. Of course the bastard is against BRexit.
Soros tried to destroy the British pound once and now he’s working at it again -— alternative : stay enslaved to the soros/ Nazi Brussels dictatorship. Very clever - he wins or will extract his pound of flesh from the British people either way this time. Woe unto us all that this Evil Incarnate pos remains at liberty to wreak his diabolical attacks on us all
Liar.
Soros, again!! Isn’t he late for a doctors appointment or something?
I noticed Obama has kept his mouth shut on this particular issue for the last week. Most of the English told him directly to stay out of it! Whatever the outcome, you can expect him to dip his beak into it, unbidden.
George Soros ...a sorrowful and wasted life. His wealth could have been used to make a difference in the world, but he would rather perpetuate a communistic One World Order wherein he gets to play God. Soon, he will stand before the one and only true God, giving an account of his evil. What a waste.
Maybe he will take a giant loss by leveraging his assets in the wrong direction.
Oh. that would be real poetic justice. One can only hope.
I hope that’s damned soon. Any moment please.
I suspect that when he least expects it, that George Soros is going to be suddenly diagnosed with terminal lead poisoning.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
“Of course the bastard is against BRexit.”
I’m sure he’s playing both sides, but I’m also sure that he’s shorted the pound and will do everything he can to make billions on it.
Please hes covered his ass either way.
Until he really runs afoul of one of those despots he’s helped rise.
i have an account should i bet with the evil s and short the markets g are you shorting the markets this time you bastard
I am praying someone takes him out, as well as his sons.
We’re I a head of state, I know what I would do.
I’d like to know where he’s invested his money, betting the Brits will vote for Brexit, talking out both sides of his mouth.
Soros, the Bond villain concern-troll.
I don't think I have ever agree with him on anything. If asked the time of day he would give the wrong time.
