Even if Soros kept his mouth shut, I don't believe the beauracrats would
have done anything productive.
Just my opinion.

True no one person controls any market. But Soros seems to be the one
pricking
the balloon. It was Soros who generated the run on the British Pound
somewhere
in 1990/1991. (I was also part of the herd.)
I also agree that most of his sprints are short lived, but that is besides
the
point. He has enough followers to create PANIC in markets and psyche
people,
since most people tend to give his voice weightage people react as a herd.,
after all the markets, TA is just mass psychology no ?I consider him like an
Insider trader of currencies, something to that effect.
With Soros īs mouth shut maybe the IMF would have handled any Asian crisis
one
at a time......That he is responsible for the Thai Bath run anyone who knows
anything about Asia will confirm it for you.
