Bring it, little man.
“You know George [Soros] is someone we all have aspired to match his brilliance but I have to tell you, you have to remember something there, the richest people on the planet become socialist. Socialism is a great thing for George. I want to bring George down. I want George’s reputation. George is now embracing socialism. What is socialism? Socialism is when you build a moat around the castle. I’m spending all of my time trying to decide where I’m going to live because of taxes are so high in the country and less of my time trying to figure out how to surpass Soros and his reputation.” [Bloomberg]
oooo, I’m quaking in my boots.
This guy from Luisiana?
Has he passed CFA Level 1
-Guy who is making a reference to yesterdays post about some dude (chick?) who had a CFA – 1 tag
@ Bess, your tags are an absolute riot.
“The noose is getting tighter and tighter.”
So turned on right now.
Join the Tea Party or STFU
It putz the lotion in the basssket or else it getz the hose again.
@6 FTW
Skilling wins one in supreme court!
I’d be more impressed if he was holding his member between his outstretched hands in that photo and saying “Blow me, Soros.”
Hugh I’m not sure George will promptly bend over and grab his ankles like I do
- Jeffrey Sachs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuysYXlJ43I
Soros will just knock this guy’s teeth out with one swift swipe of his anal bead tail.
450 under management? with 18 years of experience? get real. why is he on TV? bloomberg must have zero clout in London or everyone respectable knows this summit is 2 years late
This BS started back in ’72 when Soros saw Hugh for the first time at an antiques roadshow:
GS: Hugh Hendry!
HH: Yea, I’m Hugh.
GS: No, you’re not me, I’m George, you’re you.
HH: Right, yea.
-Jim Rogers
You know, Soros is a CIA asset.
Pfluger: Um, he is. Ever heard of a metaphor?
K. Back to rereading Twilight beneath my desk.
Sev. (Team Hugh)
His point on socialism notwithstanding.
this dude is a european equities guy. get out of my face
@5 Do they have a Tea Party in the UK?
Hugh Hendry the Plasticine Trader from “The Invisible Hnads” by Drobny
“I have tea parties with my daughter; keep my pinky up…..”
~The Dad
Swagger Wagon Commercial
Seeing the name “Skilling” in the same article having the phrase “honest services” kind of cracked me up.
@ tags – put the lotion in the basket!
Hugh,
I brought a man down once, if you’re interested how, call me.
–Ashley Dupree
douche bags, Hendry has some of the most entertaining and well thought out letters of any HF manager. i would venture to guess he has done better than the far majority of your portfolios, in fact his Macro fund was up 31% in 2008. By the way, Macro is not just euro equities, pls pass your CFA II before posting. Oh and go fuck yourselves
24=Hugh Hendry’s mom.
Welcome, 24!
“I done told him not to choke the fargin’ bishop in public like that. It’s why nobody liked him back in Middle School.” – Papa Hendry after a few shots of Jack.
@24: So then why does he have to be so damned circumspect?
He should whip out that BSD in the photo and say, “Hey Soros, blow me!”
That would be powerful, rather than just meekly holding his hands out there pretending to be holding his BSD while implying that Soros should S his D (as Bess would put it…).
He looks so rosacea in that pic.
Soros is in the photo, which is why you’re all noting that his D is both B and S.
@25, great one! Fresh, well done.
@23 that was stupid and inappropriate
@Bess – Only two posts today!?!? We’d expect this lack of content from Kouwe, but not you…
Here’s Hugh Hendry, giving Soros a sense of what he can expect:
http://www.investmentpostcards.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/hendry-pc1.jpg
This is the dumbest group of comments ever. Half of you morons don’t even know who’s in the picture.
@34 – George Soros is in the picture.
@29/34:
Damn, well that changes EVERYTHING.
In that case, it is Soros who should be holding his BSD in his hands in the photo and saying to Hugh, “Blow me!”
- Guy who doesn’t recognize George Soros’ picture
Caption: “It’s 5 inches, but it’s thick”
If you hold your mouse over the pic it will tell you who it is. I use this feature frequently to keep from embarrassing myself.
@34 So that’s not Rodney Dangerfield???
No respect…
@38 = citadel fag
@32 blow a goat. then tally up the number of post I’ve done this week alone. probably 10X’s Kouwe’s career output. also, if you haven’t noticed there’s nothing going on today (furthermore more, I’m working on a story of utmost importance). having said that, if you’d like to get out there and make something happen that I can write about, that would be lovely.
@Pfluger
While there are far more egregious errors you could have made, that’s pretty bad.
– guy who hopes you won’t stalk his email and threaten to shout out where he works for pointing that out
Awesome pic, I wish Tales from the Crypt was still on the air.
@34 who is this george soros everyone is talking about?
@37..thats why they call him “Tuna Can” George
@45 they only call him that after he porks yo mama
@41/Bess
If it helps, I’m eating two dozen twinkies starting at 3:00 pm. Not a trading floor contest or anything. I’m just pathetic.
@42:
Though you may find this shocking, I really have never had a desire to see what Soros actually looks like. But now that I know, I wish I didn’t….
So, little to no embarassment for that bit of ignorance. I was embarassed when I stupidly mistook a Warren Zevon song for an Elvis Costello song, and some poster pointed that out. There was no excuse whatsoever for that stupidity.
Hey Anal, if I hold the mouse over your posting will it reveal your firm and name?
@38/Help Desk Associate: do you know?
@48/Pfluger, He’s been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Warren Zevon has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
@Pfluger
Fair enough, he’s breathtaking, isn’t he?
@Pfluger, It’s Help Desk MD, and it’s part time, dick.
-38
can we please talk about big al gore?
ok…
Oh come on, 53, there are a lot more important problems than Al Gore to worry about. Sure, Al Gore is important, but there are more pressing problems at hand.
Manbearpig, he’s out there. He must be stopped. I’M SUPER SERIAL!
-Also, my penis is bigger than all of yours.
Al
Ok I blew a goat. Do we now get more posts? Just kidding. I made a former shareholder blow the goat.
@50: Agreed. Nonetheless, it was utterly stupid of me to have made such a horrendous error, and to have befouled this fine blog with misinformation. Indefensible. At the time I apologized profusely for any confusion that may have resulted.
When Zach began posting, my shame gradually lifted….
“a story of utmost importance” =
- Cody announces engagement to NPH
- Hard-hitting undercover piece on what *really* goes on in the Jefferies executive steamroom
- A certain ice-devouring sex tornado reconciles with his psycho ex-wife
- RBS set to post a profit
- Largest Cocaine shipment ever intercepted, hidden inside frozen manatees
- Rice?
Question- how many litres of gin does one need to consume in a week to get that beet red look going?
Hi, Anonymous here, how did I get logged in as CoveredLong?
Freaky.
–not Covered Long
george called, said he wants to play tummy sticks.
weirdo.

@61, that happened to me the other day. i logged off and am now anonymous again…maybe that vicious animal liar beth can tell us if it is the spirit of malice on these bloggy interwebs that is making it all freaky…(would rather be making news, not lame comments, only not enough juice to make the squeeze)
Haters are gonna’ hate. Keep doin’ your thing Soros.
In other news god damn I love coffee futures. Daddy needs a new Patek and collection of Columbian hand-rolled cigars.
@61, @64 – that’s happened to me too
@61,64,66, so where and when are you guys holding the circle jerk?
@59 none of the above! you’ll see next week.
I hope Bess is interviewing Liz Claman.

bess…somehow work this into a post…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uW4IiwmaYNk
@70 The most ironic part of that link is that it uses ‘A New York Bestseller’ as a marketing tool. Yet Glenn Beck has frequently accused the NYT of yellow journalism, liberal-pandering, and bias.
But if it makes money for you eh? Fuck it right?
Anal_yst,
What is it like knowing that you are famous at firms all over the city? And not in a good way. Any thoughts?
