China Stares Down Soros, Issues Warning To Man Who "Broke The Bank of England"

In the olden, some say golden days of professional hockey, intimidation was a factor in outcomes. Truth be told, same can happen on Wall Street – today. From one perspective China seems to get this concept, as they are reported to have “warned” hedge fund legend and member of the global glitterati George Soros to “back off.” What is interesting about China’s public warning regarding attacking their currency is not only the history – Soros is a legend for “breaking the Bank of England” and making millions betting against the British pound – but also the fact Soros didn’t exactly recommend shorting China. In fact, his trade recommendation was to short U.S. stocks! Add to this the rather public method in which the intimidating message was delivered and welcome to the globally linked economic world which at times can represent a clash of not just economic but also cultural values.

But the beat down was even worse in the Xinhua news agency report. “As for those who want to bet on the ‘ultimate failure’ of the Chinese economy, they should look back at the past four decades, which witnessed China’s growth from an underdeveloped economy into a global economic powerhouse through continuous reform and opening up,” an editorial said.
